High-efficiency outdoor luminaires optimized for glare control, light uniformity, and long-term energy savings.
The global infrastructure sector is undergoing an unprecedented modernization wave. Street illumination is no longer evaluated merely as a basic public utility; it is the physical framework of modern Smart City planning. The global market's transition to Solid-State Lighting (SSL) technology is propelled by strict energy conservation targets, reduced operational costs, and the implementation of intelligent transport systems (ITS).
Municipal procurement officers, civil engineers, and commercial project planners face complex challenges. System selection requires balancing optical efficiency (lumens per watt), long-term durability under harsh environments, glare mitigation (conforming to EN 13201 and IESNA RP-8 standards), and compatibility with digital control systems like NEMA 7-pin or Zhaga interfaces. An optimized system reduces municipal carbon footprints while improving public safety and night-time economy activity.
Attaining up to 160 lm/W system efficacy with Lumileds, Osram, or Cree LED modules, dramatically slashing municipal energy bills by up to 70% compared to traditional legacy lighting installations.
Designed with marine-grade copper-free die-cast aluminum alloys (ADC12), offering IK08-IK10 impact resistance and IP66 ingress protection to endure severe climate conditions globally.
Equipped with 1-10V, DALI, or PWM dimming capabilities, compatible with intelligent wireless management controllers (Zigbee, LoRa, cellular IoT) for autonomous light planning.
Quality light distribution is crucial. Applying incorrect optical spreads causes light trespass, glare, and wasted energy. By using custom-designed PMMA or Polycarbonate lenses, municipal designs can precisely control beam geometries:
A Premier Global Brand of Premium Urban Street and Garden Illumination Systems Since 2003
Established in 2003 and located in the coastal manufacturing hub of Ningbo, China, Austar Lighting Co., Ltd. spans a 10,000 square meter state-of-the-art production complex. Over the past two decades, we have established ourselves as a major industrial manufacturer specializing in outdoor LED street lights, garden luminaires, and public lighting columns, with an annual manufacturing output exceeding 150,000 sets.
In collaboration with acclaimed Italian lighting designers, we merge European design aesthetics with clean manufacturing practices. Our 100% export-oriented output delivers lighting systems to 55 countries and regions, ensuring our luminaires meet the performance expectations of overseas municipalities and developers.
Industrial performance begins with robust mechanical design and material integrity.
Equipped with 1000T, 700T, and 300T industrial die-casting machinery, our facility processes high-grade raw alloys into single-piece housings with high thermal dissipation capabilities.
Our automated electrostatic spraying line applies corrosion-resistant finishes. Systems successfully complete 500-to-1000-hour salt spray testing to support long-term offshore coastal usage.
Every finished luminaire undergoes a continuous 24-to-48-hour testing cycle on our specialized aging lines, ensuring driver reliability and lumen stability before packing.
Ningbo, China represents a major hub for outdoor industrial lighting manufacturing. The concentration of component suppliers—ranging from specialized high-purity aluminum alloys, precision optical molds, and high-performance drivers, to structural hardware—reduces shipping timelines and streamlines production. Austar leverages this industrial concentration to deliver a 30-day timeline for new luminaire prototyping and mold development, offering responsive turnaround times for OEM and ODM partners worldwide.
Take a virtual tour inside our fabrication plants, die-casting divisions, and inspection laboratories.
Public lighting requires verified testing. Outdoor luminaires must operate continuously through severe windstorms, extreme heat waves, freezing winter seasons, and lightning strikes. Austar's laboratory testing facilities evaluate each design's physical and electrical performance:
Our commitment to quality management is verified through formal certifications. All Austar products carry ENEC, CB, CE, and LVD certifications, meeting the safety requirements of international regulatory systems. Our processes conform strictly to ISO9001:2015 (Quality Management) and ISO14001:2015 (Environmental Management) standards, ensuring consistent, repeatable output for global projects.
