What Arkoslight does

Arkoslight is a privately held Spanish technical lighting manufacturer founded in 1984 by José Luis Latrát in Valencia and operating today as ARKOSLIGHT SL from its headquarters and factory in Ribarroja del Turia. The company designs, manufactures and distributes architectural LED luminaires organized across ten product categories — ceiling recessed, surface, suspension, wall, table and floor, track lights, custom systems, outdoor, lamps and accessories — with proprietary technologies including an eco-design software that maximizes light output per unit of material, a 'Black Foster' concealed light-source system, and modular magnetic/low-voltage track systems (Track 48V, Minimal Track, Magnetic 24V System). Its go-to-market is a horizontal B2B specification model selling to architects, interior designers, lighting designers and installers across more than 90 countries, supported by an in-house project department that provides custom lighting design consulting, an online configurator for bespoke luminaires, iCatalogue software, BIM objects and a DIALux photometric plugin to embed the products in professional design workflows. Revenue derives primarily from luminaire and lamp hardware sales complemented by professional lighting design services on a custom/project-quotation basis; the company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ENEC and CB certifications, achieved Carbon Neutral status in 2025 under the MITECO 'Calculo, Reduzco y Compenso' label for Scope 1 and 2 emissions (2021-2024) and earned an EcoVadis Bronze Medal alongside more than 80 international design awards including Red Dot, iF, Archiproducts and Delta awards.
