With an extensive product range of indoor and outdoor lighting fixtures, Saudi Lighting Company (SLC) clientele includes residential, commercial, industrial and other applications.
Moreover, the company clams to be a pioneer in energy conservation products and cost effective installation and operations.
Today, reducing energy consumption has become of vital long-term importance, particularly to ensure the longevity of electricity generating stations, reducing the costs of energy projects and protecting the environment from pollution caused by the emissions and combustion of these stations.
As the only indoor and outdoor light manufacturing company in Saudi Arabia, according to SLC, it ensures that all its products are tested before they reach its clients.
The company's electrical lighting systems comply fully with the standards set by the Saudi Standards and Metrology Authority, which ensures the highest level of safety, reliability and performance.
The lights are tested in highly demanding conditions to ensure their internal components are safe, offer high performance and are capable of resisting high temperature, soil, dust and rain.
The company abides by the international quality standards, which means that all the components used in manufacturing the lights are world-class and locally-reliable.
SLC furthermore realises that success cannot be achieved unless state-of-art technologies are used for all business operations.
As such 'Oracle Applications' had been introduced for internal networking and all the production and administration procedures in the company are based on this system.
SLC was the first Saudi Company to apply this system comprehensively in all its production and administration operations.
Additionally, the company's design, research and development departments utilise advanced 'CAD' systems for designing and developing products according to customer requirements and specifications.
In order to guarantee accuracy, the company provides new numerical and automatic control machines, which are used in all stages of manufacturing such as cutting, punching, roll forming, bending or in stages of part product assembly.
The painting section, consisting of seven steps, is another challenge to guarantee product quality.
It begins with chemical treatment for protecting the product surface from natural elements and ends with painting it with electrostatic powder.
After components are assembled, the process moves to final product assembly, run by Saudis, a step towards achieving Saudisation in all company departments.
Before the final packing all products are tested to assure quality.
In order to maintain a no-waste environment, SLC follows a system of collecting all industrial waste in special containers separated into categories such as minerals, cartons and paper for recycling.
Saudi Lighting Laboratory is unique not only in its architectural structure but also in the rigorous tests and research pertaining to lighting features, products are subject to.
Accuracy is ensured by lighting instruments such as the Goniophotometer.
The processes of testing products, safety, operation efficiency and ability of resisting high heat, dust and rain are all completed under rigorous conditions in order to achieve the classification of Ingress for such conditions according to requirements of the International Electrotechnical Commission 598 and Saudi Standards SSA 1318 and 417.
Service starts even before selling its products, and includes providing lighting solutions and suitable lighting applications, the firm claims.
After sales service provides installation consultancy according to customers' requests. The ultimate goal, says the company, is to provide customers with products and services that meet their expectations.
SLC expanded and developed its products and manufacturing capabilities in response to the economic development and market needs.
In 1989, it merged with Arabian Lighting Company in manufacturing indoor lighting fixtures.
With this merger, SLC has grown to become the leading manufacturer of lighting fixtures in the Middle East.
