Lindex

What Lindex does

Lindex is a Moscow-headquartered, privately held Russian value-added distributor of engineering infrastructure equipment, founded in April 1999. The company distributes uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, structured cabling (copper and fiber optic), power distribution units, low-voltage switchgear, cable management systems, video surveillance, security and fire alarm systems, and access control equipment across 18 product directions and 32+ authorized brands including Corning, Legrand, CyberPower, DKC, MOBOTIX, IEK, OBO Bettermann, Dahua, and DATAREX. Its technology stack is primarily integration of third-party OEM equipment rather than proprietary platforms, with the exception of in-house assembled low-voltage switchgear (AVR/SchAVR control panels, control station panels, main distribution panels) produced at two owned manufacturing sites in Moscow and Novosibirsk under the Alestel sub-brand.\n\nLindex sells exclusively through an authorized B2B partner network (system integrators, installers, and value-added resellers) operating across 10+ Russian cities, supplemented by the b2b.lindex.ru self-service portal and a quote-based pricing model with free delivery thresholds in major regions. The company bundles equipment distribution with engineering services spanning pre-project design, GOST-compliant power quality diagnostics, installation, commissioning, remote UPS commissioning, and warranty/maintenance. End-customers span data center operators, industrial enterprises, healthcare facilities, commercial real estate, and telecom operators, with LafargeHolcim disclosed as a named enterprise reference.\n\nRevenue mechanics are driven by hardware resale margins plus value-added engineering service fees; no revenue figures are publicly disclosed. The company has received industry recognition including Corning Best Distributor EMEA (2019 and 2020) and Alfa-Bank Business Class AAA (2018 financials). Recent strategic direction has emphasized product-line breadth expansion through new domestic and international brand authorizations (Siber Elektro, Dahua, VARTON, VoltKhran) and digital channel investment via the B2B portal, against a backdrop of post-2022 sanctions-driven reorientation toward Russian-domestic equipment alternatives.

Direct peers

• IEK Group: Russian manufacturer and distributor of low-voltage electrical equipment with overlapping product categories (modular equipment, circuit breakers, distribution panels). Both companies sell through partner networks and compete for the same system integrator and contractor customers.
• ETM: One of Russia's largest electrical equipment distributors with a similarly broad product portfolio (cabling, lighting, low-voltage equipment, UPS) and a multi-region warehouse network. Closest comparable by business model, product breadth, and Russian channel focus.
• EKF: Vertically integrated Russian electrical equipment manufacturer-distributor with comparable low-voltage switchgear, cabling, and power distribution offerings. Competes directly with Lindex's ALESTEL manufacturing and distribution lines.
• TDM Electric: Russian electrical equipment manufacturer with broad low-voltage product portfolio, often distributed through the same partner channels that Lindex serves. Comparable in product scope and Russia-only market focus.
• RusElKom: Russian electrical equipment distributor with comparable product mix in UPS, cabling, and low-voltage devices. Direct competitor in the same mid-sized distributor segment.

Broad incumbents

• Legrand (Russia): Global manufacturer of electrical installation, UPS, and structured cabling products — and a Lindex partner. Operates both direct and channel sales in Russia, often competing with Lindex for the same end customers.
• Vertiv: Global UPS, PDU, and data center infrastructure specialist competing in the same critical power and cooling categories where Lindex operates. Stronger in enterprise and hyperscale data centers but overlapping in mid-market accounts.
• ABB (Russia): Global manufacturer of switchgear, UPS, and low-voltage equipment with direct sales and authorized distributor models in Russia. Competes with Lindex's manufacturing and distribution across multiple product categories.
• Schneider Electric (Russia): Global incumbent in power distribution and UPS that sells through and sometimes competes with Russian distributors. Overlaps with Lindex in UPS, distribution panels, and structured cabling via the Actassi/VDI line.

Emerging players

• Rittal (Russia): Manufacturer of enclosures, server racks, and power distribution used in data centers and industrial sites. Comparable to Lindex's telecommunications cabinet and data center infrastructure offerings, with stronger direct-manufacturer positioning.
