What Soliled does

Soliled S.A.S. is a French specialty distributor and systems integrator focused on digital lighting control and smart building automation, founded in 2010 and headquartered in Meylan, France with a secondary office in Bouc Bel Air. The company curates a portfolio of professional lighting control brands—most prominently eldoLED LED drivers (ECOdrive, SOLOdrive, DUALdrive, POWERdrive, LINEARdrive covering 10W to 720W), Pharos Controls DMX controllers, LumenRadio wireless DALI, Pathway Connectivity DMX infrastructure, DMXking interfaces, Casambi Bluetooth antennas, and LED fixtures from InstaLighting, EcoSense, and Xicato—and resells them via a B2B e-commerce storefront and direct project sales. Its competitive value proposition is curation, multi-protocol interoperability (DMX, Art-Net/sACN, DALI, DALI-2, KNX, 0-10V, Bluetooth Mesh, Casambi), and a turnkey service model covering design-phase consulting, specification, and on-site commissioning.

The business model is primarily hardware resale (LED drivers, fixtures, controllers, and accessories) with a complementary professional services stream for integration and commissioning. Pricing is unit-based in euros (HT/TTC), with stock-clearance items discounted more than 50% and product warranties ranging from 1 to 5 years depending on the SKU. Customers are French and European integrators, architects, lighting designers, and public-sector/municipal projects; the company's reference portfolio includes Notre Dame de Paris, the National Assembly Library, the Paris Métro Line 14 extension, and the Memorial Saint Gervais. The company holds €60K in registered capital, employs 1–10 people, operates independently with no parent or venture backing disclosed, and is geographically concentrated in Europe.

Direct peers

• Helvar: Finnish specialist in DALI-2 lighting controls, LED drivers, and lighting design services for commercial buildings. Highly comparable to Soliled in product scope (DALI-based drivers and controls) and European project-driven customer base.
• Lutron Electronics: Global leader in lighting controls and shading systems for residential and commercial markets. Directly comparable to Soliled as a specialist provider of advanced dimming and lighting-control ecosystems, though at vastly larger scale.
• Tridonic (part of Zumtobel Group): Manufacturer of LED drivers, lighting control systems, and DALI components for architectural and commercial applications. Closely comparable to Soliled's eldoLED-led driver portfolio and lighting-control offering.

Broad incumbents

• Osram (ams OSRAM): Global lighting and optoelectronics company offering LED drivers, components, and connected lighting solutions. Comparable as an upstream supplier/category peer active in the same LED-driver and lighting-control ecosystems Soliled serves.
• Legrand: French-listed global specialist in electrical and digital building infrastructure, including lighting controls and KNX building automation. Comparable as a French-headquartered broad incumbent that increasingly bundles smart-lighting and BMS offerings.
• Crestron Electronics: US-based provider of integrated building automation, AV, and lighting control solutions for high-end commercial and residential projects. Comparable to Soliled in the premium-specifier and integrator channel, but with a much broader product portfolio.
• Signify (Philips Lighting): Global lighting giant and owner of eldoLED (Soliled's flagship supplier). Overlaps with Soliled across LED drivers, lighting controls, and connected lighting systems, but competes at vastly larger scale and through direct enterprise channels.
• Zumtobel Group: Austrian-listed European lighting specialist offering fixtures, LED drivers, and lighting management systems for architectural and commercial projects. Comparable to Soliled's focus on specification-grade architectural lighting and DALI-based control.

Others

• EldoLED (a Signify business): Soliled's primary supplier and direct product-side peer in programmable LED drivers. Included as a 'partner-supplier' relationship rather than a competitor — relevant for understanding competitive dynamics and channel risk.
• LumenRadio: Swedish wireless DALI and CRMX technology partner distributed by Soliled. Relevant as a technology-supplier peer in the wireless-lighting-control ecosystem.
