About Us

How we started

ELC is a French manufacturer of lighting equipment and was founded by Jean-Noël GEORGE, who invented the LUMAPHORE® range of portable lighting solutions.

The company has always strived to work with customers to understand, and meet, their needs and to develop new solutions and improved products.  The LUMAPHORE® range is now sold in over 36 countries.

It is used by the emergency services, security services, highways authorities, the construction sector and leading companies such as EDF and SNCF.

Quality, the Environment and Customer Satisfaction are the key pillars of our development objectives.

Timeline

End 2006, the LUMAPHORE® was created.

2007 – 2010 : In 2007, ELC – Electric Lighting Concept was formed.  The company’s core activity is the design, manufacture and distribution of portable, temporary lighting systems and accessories.
