Expanded Introduction of OKELI Lighting at GILE 2025

Since its establishment in 2009, OKELI Lighting Co., Ltd. has evolved into a global leader in the LED lighting industry, combining 16+ years of expertise with a relentless focus on innovation, quality, and sustainability. As a vertically integrated manufacturer, OKELI operates a 35,000㎡ state-of-the-art facility in China, housing 8 automated production lines and a complete supply chain—from raw material procurement to final product assembly. This infrastructure enables an annual output of over 10 million units, ensuring scalability for clients ranging from startups to global brands.

Manufacturing Excellence & Global Compliance
OKELI’s commitment to precision is evident in its ISO 9001-certified quality management system, where every product undergoes 12-point material inspections (including XRF testing for purity) and 72-hour aging tests to ensure durability. Certified to CE, VDE, ETL, and CCC standards, its fixtures are trusted in demanding environments, from European retail chains to industrial warehouses in Southeast Asia. The company’s military-grade aluminum housings and Bridgelux LED chips (offering 50,000+ hours of lifespan) reflect its dedication to surpassing industry benchmarks.

Innovation-Driven R&D: A Milanese Touch
At the heart of OKELI’s success is its cross-border R&D team, featuring Italian designers based in Milan and a team of 200+ engineers in China. This collaboration has yielded over 5,000 patents, including breakthroughs in anti-glare micro-prism technology (UGR<19) and LiDAR-integrated smart streetlights that adapt to traffic patterns. The company’s rapid prototyping lab (capable of 3D-printed samples in 72 hours) and patent-forward development strategy allow clients to bring concepts to market 40% faster than industry averages, a key advantage showcased at GILE 2025 through live demos of its modular LED fixtures and biophilic lighting systems that mimic natural circadian rhythms.

Sustainability: A Core Business Imperative
Guided by the philosophy “Energy Saving, Low-Carbon Life”, OKELI has emerged as a pioneer in green lighting technology. Its products consume 80% less energy than traditional fixtures, while passive cooling designs (eliminating fan noise and maintenance) and 85% recyclable aluminum components reduce environmental impact. At GILE, OKELI will highlight its solar-integrated outdoor solutions, including IP65-rated solar streetlights with 120° wide beams and 200-meter throw distance, ideal for off-grid communities and Nigeria’s growing infrastructure. These products align with global goals to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, demonstrating that sustainability and profitability can coexist.

Customization for Every Vision
As a full-service OEM/ODM partner, OKELI excels in tailored solutions, offering 100% customizable designs—from beam angles (15° to 36° in downlights) to brand-centric packaging. Its agile production architecture accommodates flexible MOQs (500–50,000 units) and 48-hour production switchovers between product lines, making it ideal for both niche brands and retail giants. At GILE, visitors can explore OKELI’s white-label portfolio, including RGB tape lights used in Miami’s luxury resorts and dimmable panel lights for London’s smart offices, illustrating how the company turns client visions into market-ready innovations.

A Global Footprint, Localized Expertise
With exports to 86+ countries, OKELI understands the nuances of regional markets. In the US, its online retail platform (www.okelilights.com) offers free shipping, 30-day returns, and local warehouse fulfillment (3–7 business days), catering to DIY enthusiasts and small businesses. In Nigeria, the company recently expanded with solar-powered floodlights optimized for tropical climates, collaborating with local distributors to address energy scarcity. These efforts reflect OKELI’s belief that “lighting is a universal need, but solutions must be local”—a philosophy brought to life at GILE 2025 through its country-specific product displays and regional market workshops.
