Gettin' Lit After Three Decades: JB-Lighting's 30-Year Journey
It's been three decades since Jürgen Braungardt sparked a fascination with mirror scanners, leading him to create JB-Lighting in 1990. Based in Blaustein, Germany, JB-Lighting is all about intelligent headlamps and innovative lighting technology. Jörg Zimmermann, JB-Lighting's sales manager, shares the inspiring story of the company's journey and the anniversary celebrations.
Jürgen Braungardt's 30-Year Legacy: "Made in Germany"
Jürgen Braungardt's commitment to a "everything under one roof" strategy has remained steadfast throughout the years. This approach ensures that product development to the finished headlamp happens on-site in Blaustein. With an impressive vertical range of manufacture, JB-Lighting makes 80% of its components in-house, allowing for high-quality control and a near-CO2-neutral production process.
Anniversary Celebrations: Adapting to Individual Circumstances
Originally planned to toast the anniversary with customers at the Prolight & Sound in Frankfurt, the celebration will now be pushed back to next year. Once the situation returns to normal, JB-Lighting looks forward to welcoming customers to their production site. A larger company event is scheduled for the next two years to mark the extension of their new production building.
Evolving in an Ever-Changing Industry
From small events to large, professional productions, the entire event industry has changed over the past three decades. JB-Lighting has played a significant role in this transformation, providing modern equipment and innovations to make events sparkle on the world's biggest stages.
Embracing Tradition and Innovation
With continued product development and a focus on sustainability, JB-Lighting produces long-lasting, stable-in-value products. This commitment to creating sustainable solutions pays off, as many products have a 4-8 year lifespan with an additional 10 years of spare parts availability.
Prolight + Sound: A Home away from Home
Prolight & Sound is JB-Lighting's leading trade fair, offering an optimal platform to present their products to a strong European market. This year, JB-Lighting had planned a walk down memory lane for their anniversary, showcasing well-preserved devices from the company's beginnings.
What's Next? Keep a Little Light in Your Life
With the 2020 product roadmap currently in flux due to the event industry's state, JB-Lighting looks forward to announcing more details towards the end of the year. Stay tuned for exciting updates in the world of lighting technology from JB-Lighting.
Through its continuous advancements in lighting technology, JB-Lighting has established itself as a significant player in the industry, changing the landscape of the event industry over the past three decades. Despite the uncertainty around financing and technology, especially in the current economic climate, JB-Lighting is geared towards revealing exciting new developments in their product line later this year.
