Engineered for high performance, structural reliability, and optical sophistication.
Established in 2003, Austar Lighting Co., Ltd. has grown to become one of the premier developers and manufacturers of high-performance architectural and industrial outdoor luminaires in Ningbo, China. Operating from a fully modernized 10,000 square meter production facility, our workforce of over 100 dedicated technical and operations professionals ensures an annual production yield exceeding 150,000 sets.
Every luminaire we manufacture complies with international quality standards. To guarantee structural stability, photobiological safety, and long-term electrical reliability, our quality assurance protocols utilize state-of-the-art testing instrumentation including spectroradiometric integrating spheres, high-precision goniophotometers, salt spray corrosion testing chambers, EMC analysis facilities, and automated high-temperature load aging racks. Consequently, our complete range holds CB, ENEC, CE, and LVD certifications.
Architectural luminaires must bridge the gap between mechanical durability and optical refinement.
Modern public lighting demands precise distributions (Type I, II, III, IV, and V) to prevent upward light spill, in line with international "Dark Sky" regulations. Our light engines use high-efficacy PMMA micro-lens arrays that control unified glare ratings (UGR < 19) while maintaining system efficacy up to 160 lm/W.
Using premium die-cast aluminum alloys (ADC12/LM6) with optimized thermal conductivity, our cooling fins are modeled using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). This keeps junction temperatures below 75°C at an ambient 40°C, ensuring a L90B10 operating life exceeding 100,000 hours.
Our luminaires feature standard NEMA 3-pin, 5-pin, or 7-pin receptacles and Zhaga Book 18 interfaces. They support intelligent control systems like LoRaWAN, Zigbee, and cellular NB-IoT, allowing for autonomous dimming schedules, real-time power monitoring, and predictive maintenance diagnostics.
We use automated electrophoretic painting and powder coating lines that resist more than 1000 hours of salt spray testing (ISO 9227). Modular light engines and driver compartments can be replaced without tools, supporting circular economy practices and minimizing life-cycle maintenance costs.
Vertical integration in Ningbo, China ensures shorter lead times, lower costs, and consistent quality.
Our manufacturing complex is built around vertical integration. Unlike assembly-only operations, we handle the entire production process from initial tooling design to final quality control under one roof. Our facilities include:
Operating near Ningbo Port and Shanghai Port simplifies logistics, allowing us to coordinate transport efficiently and shorten shipping schedules for international projects.
Tailored configurations to meet the specific requirements of municipal, commercial, and historical locations.
Public areas require high reliability, vandal resistance, and uniform lighting distribution. Our solutions feature IK10-rated polycarbonate diffusers, surge protection up to 10kV/20kV, and photobiological safety compliance (RG0/RG1) to prevent eye strain.
Commercial venues rely on high color rendering index (CRI > 80) and warm color temperatures (2700K - 3000K) to create inviting environments. Our lights integrate seamlessly with building automation systems using DALI-2 protocols for smooth dimming.
Urban revitalization projects often require classic luminaire shapes (such as the Fernandino or Villa styles) updated with high-efficiency LED modules. We preserve historical aesthetics while delivering modern energy savings.
