From 1987 to the present day, OLIGO has made a name for itself as a creative lighting designer and high-quality manufacturer. The company, which now has several hundred employees and is based in Sankt Augustin, Germany, manufactures home lighting and various lighting solutions for shops and commercial buildings.
The sister company "ROL Lichttechnik GmbH" (architectural lighting) is also located in Sankt Augustin and another sister company called "Oligo surface controls" (automotive sector) in Lenzen. All three together form the "OLIGO group" of companies.
At the heart of each of the multiple award-winning individual luminaires and track systems is the modern technology and excellent manufacturing quality that ensure customers can enjoy their OLIGO luminaires for many years to come. With two production facilities, OLIGO is able to offer craftsmanship excellence in series production. Continuous quality assurance ensures that the high quality standards can be maintained in the long term.
OLIGO luminaires bear the "Made in Germany" seal, which has also recently become a seal of quality on an international scale. All steps from design and development to production are carried out entirely in Germany.
At OLIGO, individual luminaires are all those products that, like any "ordinary" luminaire, can be easily installed in customers' living and working areas. These include wall lights, ceiling lights, pendant lights, floor lamps and table lamps.
The designs are characterised by timeless elegance and, depending on the product, are used in different situations from living to working. But OLIGO luminaires are also unmistakable and therefore also have a representative character.
Many of the award-winning products have also received numerous internationally renowned awards, including the red Dot Award and iF Design Award.
In combination with modern LED lighting technology, they become long-lasting quality lighting solutions. The right OLIGO lights can be found for every furnishing situation.
Here he was and is able to live out his urge for innovation and new techniques, to try out new materials and substances and to make them accessible to people in his very own way. The result: unique! In collaboration with the world's most renowned designers, but also new talents, creations are created that inspire people - on all levels. Creations that are becoming true icons and that uniquely combine the latest technologies with traditional craftsmanship to give people a better quality of life and well-being.
OLIGO system luminaires are characterised by the fact that they can efficiently illuminate a wide variety of living situations - even the most complex ones.
The award-winning lighting systems can also be retrofitted and extended with new light sources. The OLIGO rail systems, which are characterised by the timeless design and high-quality workmanship that characterise the brand, including the Check-In rail system, are very well known.
However, OLIGO, which is always at the cutting edge of lighting technology, is also launching new systems on the market that are characterised by remote control capability.
This results in products that are perfect for the modern smart home and, of course, for building automation in a commercial setting.
The brand name OLIGO is derived from the Greek oligós, which means "little". The timelessness of OLIGO's luminaire designs, which makes the products so popular, is derived from this word. This is because the timeless, simple designs impress in numerous furnishing styles with their lightness and minimalist minimalism. The design always focuses on impressive light output that meets the highest demands.
A delicate, high-quality light source and a unique room accessory, especially when used in groups - that's the Rio pendant light. It accentuates kitchen worktops or islands of light in the living room, for example, without the design becoming too prominent. At the same time, the luminaire stands out and inspires precisely because of its minimalist design.
The pendant light has permanently installed LED lighting technology that shines in a cosy warm white - perfect for cosy areas.
The delicate body of the luminaire is characterised by a soft-touch surface that creates particularly gentle shading.
Another special feature of this luminaire is the filigree cable suspension, which not only allows the luminaire to float in the room, but also contains the power supply. This means that no cables interfere with the filigree luminaire design.
"For all its technical perfection, a luminaire should also have a playful, poetic component." Uli Budde, designer of the KUULA
The KUULA table lamp is a combination of Scandinavian charm and German design history. While the elegant, minimalist design reflects the uncomplicated cosiness of the Scandinavian furnishing style, the light is also focused on the essentials and functionality. And this is clearly in line with the German Bauhaus concept. The innovative "ball light" was designed by Uli Budde and, in addition to its timeless design, includes sophisticated lighting technology. This is because the plano-convex glass lens in the housing diffuses the light onto the opalised part of the mouth-blown glass head. The result is harmonious lighting without any glare. In addition, the light can be dimmed continuously and easily using the light stick on the side. A generous cable length of three metres allows the table lamp to be positioned even in complicated room and furniture situations.
