MEHR üBER ILMAS
ILMAS Italian Lighting Manufacturers Associated got its start in 1978. Having gained extensive experience in light fixture components, its main activity at the time was promoting and marketing these products on the foreign market. Part of our activities are still in this area, though over the years we have transformed it into an Italian based commercial agency for several companies worldwide. It’s only in the last 15 years that ILMAS decided to include in its sales program light fixtures such as spot and recess lighting, and even more recently, exterior light fixtures, investing heavily in projects, molds, and designs. In essence, we still sell components, but we are also proud to provide complete light fixtures that are technical and high quality, in full compliance with current regulations. The majority of our products are made of die-cast aluminum UNI 5076, and coated with special powder (QUALICOAT). The quality of our coated aluminum complies with the QUALICOAT specifications for architectural applications. All the components and accessories that we use, such as power supplies, cables, polycarbonate diffusers, etc., are the best available on the market. Our products can also be produced in special versions or provided completely untreated, please contact us to solve all your lighting problems.
Warehouse
What is the key of our success in the market? We have adopted a special stock policy. Our stores keep+C27 an important quantity of semi-assembled products that are completed with TRIDONIC LED modules at order time, thereby guaranteeing very fast (24/48 hours) deliveries to our customers. Often, a 9am order is met with an afternoon delivery. Our customers can rest assured. Considering that we also outsource to outside contractors, we have 4 warehouses located in the northwest of the greater Milan area, for a total of 2 thousand square meters of material. This is assembled almost in real time, striking the right balance in the quality/price ratio, which is highly advantageous.
A booming success of light and enthusiasm
Ilmas’ incredible exponential growth, going from a sales volume of 2 million to 11 million euro in ten years, is a credit to our compelling enthusiasm and passion for our business. Lighting is ever more present in architectural thought, and the reason why is clear. Whether ornamental or functional, lighting has the great power to transform the perception of one’s space. Clever lighting can amplify, reduce, or simply enhance one’s environment. ILMAS has known this since 1978, this is why it produces intelligent light forms. ILMAS’ solutions fit in with the inner and outer side of things, providing tailor made light fixtures for both interiors and exteriors. In order to optimize the functionality of each product, ILMAS’ wide range of light fixtures is made according to the most stringent quality standards with carefully selected materials. Our research comes from our passion, to be in service of the light.
Innovation
Electrical parts, LED modules and power supplies, the most important technologies of the product, are all manufactured in Europe by TRIDONIC, which guarantees top level quality. The LED products of the Austrian company TRIDONIC, a world market leader, are included in a wide range of our models, all featuring > 80 to 98 CRI, a very high lumen/watt ratio, and white uniformity, which guarantees the same hue over time. The importance of the power supply cannot be overestimated either, as it contributes for 97% to the efficiency of the entire product, which is why it must be high quality to ensure the smooth operation of the LED modules. We use power supplies that are guaranteed for 50 or 100 thousand hours, thus preventing inconvenient energy losses.

Distribution
For the last three years, Ilmas has been approaching the electrical products distribution industry in an important way, accounting for 70% of the business. Our brand is gaining increasing popularity and recognition throughout Italy thanks to fruitful collaborations with the best distributors in the industry. In addition, goals and rewards have been planned for the next year to increase, consolidate and strengthen our partnerships and market results. Ilmas is a medium-small company, a family, a team, thus we can establish direct relationships with our customers, all of whom appreciate our enthusiasm and make us proud with their respect and trust. Our key strength in getting wholesalers to become our partners is the flexibility that we can guarantee, our speed in providing answers and delivering the required products to our customers. Because of the crisis, in fact, multinational corporations have adopted the choice of having increasingly less stock in their warehouses, thus penalizing the speed of deliveries. We managed to make ourselves known and to take hold on the market thanks to this shortcoming of our competitors.
ILMAS Future - "The light as you like" innovation
Lighting extrusions are now fashionable, but Ilmas has an idea for a great evolution to bring to the market. This innovation will exceed our company’s targets and increase the market’s perception of our brand both qualitatively and quantitatively. Our competitors generally produce extrusions as finished products that cannot be modified. Instead, we made a very important investment in the creation of a series of modular extrusions. We have over 50 models providing unique, customized, and ad hoc combinations. The result will be lamps with various optical effects and different light shows that are extremely easy to install. Thanks to this innovation, our staff now includes lighting as well as paper and cardboard experts for design advice in creating lamps, using various combinations of extrusions.
