Facts and figures on STEINEL

Not different, but better

STEINEL has been defining its success through the quality of its innovations for over 50 years. Imagination, technical expertise and many years of experience are all factors that go to make products "typically STEINEL". STEINEL managed to make the breakthrough in product development back in 1976. An electronic voltage tester for AC and DC voltage was the first STEINEL-made product on the market. STEINEL launched the heat-tool product line with the first hot-melt glue applicator in 1980, adding hot-air tools in 1983. STEINEL started to develop sensor-controlled outdoor lights in 1987 and invented the world's first sensor-switched light. In 2002 STEINEL was the first manufacturer to use high-frequency sensor technology for detecting movements in spaces and buildings and integrated the HF system invisibly into lights. Today, STEINEL is just as much the world's brand leader in this segment as it is in using LED lighting in conjunction with sensor technology. Examples of successful products include the RS PRO LED S1 as well as the latest generation of powerful XLED floodlights with a lens matrix for illuminating large areas. Most recently, the fourth sensor technology was developed in the form of the camera sensor system that only detects people and can even count them.

As innovation and technology leader, STEINEL is always a step ahead.

Tested quality and safety

Precision, long life and lasting performance – these quality criteria are the mark of products from STEINEL that have made them so successful. A comprehensive and closely meshed quality management system (QMS) constantly makes sure that every product satisfies STEINEL quality standards. The STEINEL QMS is in operation throughout the company group - which means it is used at every production site in Europe. It is certified under the internationally applicable ISO 9001 quality standard. All production sites are regularly audited by professional quality assessors as well. Certification bodies, such as TÜV, VDE or UL, also monitor the production and testing facilities. Needless to say, all European directives, such as REACH, RoHS or EMC, are implemented and observed in production. The first quality checks are made as early as the goods inward stage. Process monitoring during production and a 100% final inspection of every product ensure perfect performance and safety. All STEINEL products receive the external seal of tested safety from TÜV-GS or VDE. All STEINEL Professional lights additionally carry the ENEC European safety mark.

Innovations for saving energy

Energy efficiency is a key issue of our day and age when it comes to conserving resources and climate protection. About 19% of the energy used world-wide goes on lighting. This equates to an annual demand of about 2,650 terrawatt-hours. Here, the intelligent use of lighting can make a huge contribution to saving energy.

Sensor technology from STEINEL makes intelligent lighting possible -  for the good of the environment, but also for added convenience, safety and security every day. It is only switched ON automatically when it's actually needed, and automatically OFF again when it's no longer required. This not only saves energy but also reduces CO2 emissions and cuts costs. Combining innovative LED technology with sensor technology can even make an energy saving of up to 90%.

Sensor-switched lights, motion detectors and presence detectors from STEINEL demonstrate just how intelligently energy can be used. High-tech, ground-breaking products from STEINEL go hand in hand with energy efficiency – whether at home or in business.

Production at the company's own factories

The entire STEINEL Group is run and managed from Herzebrock-Clarholz. But STEINEL manufactures its own products as well. To ensure perfect quality, products are only manufactured at the company's own factories in Leipzig, in Switzerland, in Romania and in Moldova - in facilities covering a total area of over 40,000 square metres.

Besides operating a comprehensive quality management system, STEINEL attaches tremendous importance to monitoring every aspect of the production process. This is the only way of making innovative and high-quality products. The share of manufacturing that takes place in-house - vertical integration - is exceptionally high. Here are just a few examples: STEINEL's Leipzig works moulds every plastic component and even compounds the plastic material itself. The Leipzig factory also has its own toolmaking department. The Swiss operation in Einsiedeln is home to STEINEL's centre of excellence for complex electronics. State-of-the-art facilities automatically fit components to the printed circuit boards at a rate of up to a thousand a minute – a production service that's provided for the whole STEINEL Group. In turn, the plants in Romania and Moldova carry out all of the other steps in manufacturing right up to the finished, packed product. Quality from STEINEL – made in Europe.
