A supply chain that respects the environment and public lighting solutions that integrate their technologies to have less impact on the planet. That’s why we are considered a sustainable lighting company.

Our values and commitment

AEC Illuminazione’s corporate philosophy promotes a culture focused on an increasingly sustainable business balance. Being a sustainable company is a relevant factor in AEC Illuminazione’s development process and improvement of business performance: an essential element of its core business. Being a sustainable company also means investing in the territory and in the professional development of the team, with the aim of promoting local economic development, enhancing people’s talents, and passing on various skills from generation to generation, while simultaneously safeguarding the intrinsic characteristic of Made in Italy.

We use renewable energy

Our luminaires are 96% recyclable

Eco-friendly packaging

At AEC, we use cushionPaper™, the corrugated cardboard that meets the sustainability challenge compared to products currently used for packaging. At the same volume, it reduces CO2 emissions, avoids disposal issues, and reduces the amount of paper needed to produce a corrugated cardboard sheet by up to 70%.
