Our sales team visited Light + Building 2026 in Frankfurt. Between 17,000 and 25,000 steps a day, dozens of conversations, and one clear conclusion: a vertically integrated plastics plant — injection moulding, vacuum metallizing, painting, FIPFG sealing and assembly under one roof — is exactly what European luminaire manufacturers are looking for in their supply chains.
The three core themes of the fair
-
Sustainable transformation
Recycled and bio-based plastics have moved from marketing language to concrete procurement criteria.
-
Smart connectivity
Every second housing now hides a radio module or IoT sensor. Siemens' Autonomous Buildings concept — AI agents, self-healing systems, unified data platforms — means every luminaire becomes a sensor node that needs a precise plastic enclosure.
-
Living light
Human-centric lighting is moving toward natural surfaces and softer forms — matte ceramic finishes, satin glass, metallized reflectors.
Meetings worth remembering
- Hager & KNXClean design, strong engineering, long product cycles.
- Glamox & BEGATop-tier lighting manufacturers — new series from BEGA's 48V system to Glamox's i65 industrial luminaires.
- Trilux"In Europe there are very few factories that do both injection moulding and vacuum metallizing well under one roof" — a conversation that stuck with us.
- BemisA reminder that consistency and supply reliability are as valuable as innovation.
Why Vesimentor is exactly where it needs to be
Supply chains are moving back to Europe, procurement managers are looking for one partner instead of many, and the carbon footprint now goes straight into the customer's CO₂ reporting.
Thanks to our sales team's work, we are now engaged in an exciting EV charging station project along with several new clients in the lighting sector — exactly the segments where the fair's core themes and our capabilities meet.
