Illuminating From Outside In

Italian lighting manufacturer Simes shines bright with innovative and architectural outdoor light fittings

Light plays an important role in our daily interaction with the environment. Whether indoors or outdoors, light reflects and deflects to illuminate a space. Light improves visibility and mobility, making daily tasks a possibility at any time of the day. Light also highlights a particular area or object, bringing attention to a point of focus. In its best form, light can be manipulated to create the illusion of space and depth.

Nevertheless, light is a form of art and no other lighting brand understands this better than Simes, the foremost Italian manufacturer of architectural outdoor lighting. Founded in 1973, Simes has endeavoured to provide light for all around the building, a mantra that has fuelled its passion for creating architectural lighting solutions that deliver visual comfort. The Simes philosophy is not just about producing lighting fittings, it also aims to simultaneously evoke emotions in all contexts – whether for architecture, landscaping or urban spaces.

Although Simes has since carved a name for itself in the global market, with a presence in more than 60 countries worldwide, this Italian company has never strayed from its native roots, staying true to the essence of the brand which proudly bears the ‘Made in Italy’ mark.

PRODUCTION EXCELLENCE THROUGH R&D

With the entire production cycle based in Franciacorta in the Italian region of Lombardy, Simes ensures that every phase of the production process meets the high standards of quality and design. From manufacturing and assembling to wiring and final testing, each process undergoes rigorous supervision to ensure the perfect delivery of the final product. No compromises are acceptable for Simes in terms of the quality of raw materials, components or production technologies. The high level of commitment to quality demonstrated by Simes has led to the achievement of the ISO 9001 certification in 1999.
