What CSVT does

CSVT (Закрытое акционерное общество «Центрстройсвет»), founded in 2009 and headquartered in Skolkovo with manufacturing operations in Ishnya, Yaroslavl Oblast, is a vertically integrated Russian manufacturer of LED lighting equipment, lighting components, and suspended metal ceiling systems. The company produces a broad portfolio of LED luminaires — square, linear, recessed, surface-mounted, and designer ring/non-standard form factors (RING, LARGO-W/S/IN, HOLE-LITUS, CLOUD, etc.) — at industrial IP ratings up to IP67, alongside proprietary components (LED drivers including DALI-2, LUXDATOR-brand emergency power blocks, optical diffusers, branded LED modules, housings, microwave sensors). Core technical differentiation rests on a proprietary PMMA light guide plate (LGP) system and the patented SPARTA LED panel with integrated driver (>111 lm/W), supported by an in-house photometric testing laboratory and 100% quality inspection. CSVT also offers OEM/contract manufacturing under customer brands.

The company operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market with three layers: a regional dealer program ('Стать дилером'), direct enterprise sales via phone and email, and retail sales for smaller orders. Pricing is quote-based with downloadable price lists (dated 2025–2026) and includes free photometric calculations plus project protection services for partners. CSVT holds certifications critical for Russian regulated verticals — ISO 9001:2015, ST1 (Russian origin), TÜV Rheinland, TR TS 004/020, EAEU 037, ГОСТ Р, and SanPin compliance for medical/educational facilities. Customer base spans major Russian real estate developers (PIK Group, LSR Group, MR Group), retail chains (O'Key, Sadovod, KARI, Colin's), telecom (Megafon), sports/entertainment (VTB Arena, Dream Island), and government/religious facilities, with over 5,000 completed projects cited.
