What Vilux does

Vilux (legal name Vitória Lux Industrial EIRELI EPP) is a privately held Brazilian LED lighting manufacturer founded in 1987 in Vila Velha, Espírito Santo, and headquartered since 1997 in Serra, ES. The company designs, manufactures, and sells a broad LED luminaire portfolio organized across six product lines — Emergency, Hazardous Areas (EX), Safety, Industrial, Floodlights, and Commercial — serving industrial and commercial end-markets with a vertical-integration model that spans material selection, mechanical and electronic engineering, production, assembly, packaging, and after-sales support. Its EX-certified luminaires for Zones 1, 2, 21, and 22 position it as the first producer in Espírito Santo and the sixth in Brazil to manufacture explosion-proof LED lighting, with documented deployments at major Brazilian enterprises including Petrobras, Vale, Gerdau, ArcelorMittal, Usiminas, Nestlé, Ipiranga, Suzano, Elkem, Prysmian, and Technip.

Technically, Vilux's products combine aluminum and polycarbonate housings with IP65/IP66/IP67 ingress protection, flicker-free drivers, adjustable-power highbay designs (e.g., 100W/150W/200W UFO), and certified photometric and electrical performance validated by partner labs (LABELO, LTB/LMB, TECHMULTLAB). Components are sourced from global LED suppliers including CREE, EPISTAR, Philips (Signify), SOSEN (drivers), and MEAN WELL. The company holds NBR ISO 9001:2015 certification and a Corpo de Bombeiros certificate for emergency luminaires.

Commercially, Vilux operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market entirely within Brazil, reaching enterprise and mid-market customers via direct phone, email, website contact, on-site engineering project support, trade shows (Brasil Offshore, MEC SHOW), and association channels such as REDEPETRO ES. Pricing is project-based and not publicly disclosed; revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales. Reported scale metrics include 1,000 customers served, 190 projects completed, 50,000 products manufactured, and over 30 years of continuous operation. The company has received the 2019 III Prêmio Potência de Inovação Tecnológica and the 2020 Prêmio Sustentabilidade Sindifer – Farol do Bem, and reports 11–50 employees.
