PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y.—JESCO Lighting Group, 17-year multinational manufacturer and marketer of contemporary high-design, exclusively energy-saving lighting fixtures—a pioneer in popularizing very low-watt, ultra longlife LED light sources—has completed a major move and expansion of the company. The announcement was made by Richard Kurtz, President, CEO and a principal of JESCO Lighting Group.

The new building JESCO Lighting Group purchased is off of the Long Island Expressway, New York Route 495, east of Manhattan. A contemporary-design, two-story, 70,000-square-foot, steel-framed brick and glass existing structure, it was architecturally renovated and enhanced by SDG Design architects and professional interior designers of Lindenhurst, N.Y. The general contractor was Setauket Contracting of Hauppauge, N.Y.

The new building occupies four acres in a modern, landscaped industrial park. It has 100 percent on-site parking, truck delivery and shipping accommodations. Corporate offices, customer service, product research and development, electronic systems testing and engineering occupy 15,000-plus square feet. Product assembly, customization, and high-ceiling computerized warehousing, comprise approximately 55,000 square feet.

Early Adopter of Low-Energy Lighting Fixtures

“JESCO Lighting Group is one of the modern energy-conserving lighting industry’s biggest ongoing success stories,” says Richard Kurtz. He notes that the company was an early adopter of very low-energy, ultra longlife LED (light-emitting diode) ambient/accent, decorative and outdoor special-effects lighting fixtures.

At JESCO, LED lighting is available in recessed and semi-recessed ceiling lights; architectural suspended ceiling-pendant lights; curvilinear suspended, aimable track lights; wall sconces, cabinet and display lighting; and flexible static or color-changing LED indoor/outdoor lighting strips with timed effects.

“Our company’s reputation is continually growing as a primary U.S. supplier of state-of-the-art, safety-certified LED luminaires and integral design-lighting systems,” Kurtz said. “Particularly for hospitality, healthcare and retail design; offices of all kinds; and fine residences.”

“Our company’s dynamic growth throughout its 17-plus years to date drove the need for a new, larger space,” Kurtz said. “We previously purchased our own West Coast warehouse and office building in Los Angeles, and have since added a new-product showroom to it. Our company also has a network of established, modern, overseas plants which feed our U.S. facilities; and still other offices in Hong Kong and Europe that help satisfy our customers’ varied, often rush requirements.”
