While some companies downsized in 2009, Davis Lighting thumbed their nose at the downturn and built a new base in South Australia. Now well positioned to service the fast-growing Australian lighting market, this world-based company with an ECOSmart agenda is set to celebrate 20 years in Australia come 2011.
A progressive lighting manufacturer with a wealth of experience in their people, Davis Lighting is long established on the Australian lighting landscape and is supported by an extensive global network. Their sales and service base covers not only Australia but also NZ, PNG, South Pacific Islands, Singapore, Bangladesh, Brunei, Sri Lanka, UK and last but not least Malaysia - where it all began some 27 years ago.
This allows Davis Lighting to offer the best possible lighting solutions. With a wide range of products backed up by friendly service and expert consultancy, Davis Lighting is well equipped to match their clients’ needs to the lighting solutions they offer.
A commitment to excellence has resulted in Davis Lighting being awarded many prestigious lighting contracts throughout the world. Their teams of experienced lighting designers and engineers are able to work with an exciting range of products catering for a wide diversity of needs in the areas of government and private institutions such as education and healthcare, industrial, commercial, recreational, hospitality and retail.
Under the guidance of Executive Director Ron Hugo, Davis Lighting has been a success story achieving exceptional growth in the tough economic times of past years. Bucking the downsizing trend in 2009, Davis Lighting expanded in May 2009 with a new Office/Warehouse located in Royal Park, South Australia and added an additional employee. In January 2010 employees were also added to both Brisbane head office and the WA sales team.
In 2011 Davis Lighting (Davex Australia Pty Ltd) will celebrate 20 years in Australia and the company would like to sincerely thank all Gemcell members past and present for their support in the past and into the future years ahead.
Davis Lighting will continue to develop leading edge products that demonstrate its commitment to help reduce carbon and greenhouse gas emissions.
