Beka Schréder

BEKA Schréder (Pty) Ltd is Africa’s leading manufacturer of Luminaires and Glass Fibre Reinforced polyester (GRP) Poles. Our objective is to provide the right lighting solutions by optimising the optical and mechanical design of luminaires. Using contemporary technologies, our goal is to always offer intelligent and sustainable lighting solutions in order to reduce energy consumption, as well as the overall cost of ownership. We started operations in 1978 in Namibia, a country that has one of the most corrosive climates in the world. The first products in manufacture were corrosion-resistant Glass Fibre Reinforced Polyester Poles and Public Lighting luminaires that continue to provide long-term solutions for the hostile coastal and inland environments. Due to the success of our products becoming firmly established in neighbouring South Africa, the decision was made in 1981 to move to Olifantsfontein, a strategically positioned industrial town situated between Johannesburg and Pretoria. In 1989, we became South Africa’s first lighting company to be awarded ISO 9000 certification. This commitment to quality became the company’s hallmark and has enabled us to become Africa’s largest lighting manufacturer and market leader in exterior lighting. Since 2002, we have had a partnership with the Belgian company, Schréder – a multinational lighting company that is present in over 70 countries on 5 continents. In 2013, we became a wholly owned Schréder company, allowing us to embrace the latest technologies, such as optimising light control technologies, for which Schréder are well renowned. We offer an extensive range of high-quality LED luminaires in the following categories: Ambiance | Road & Urban | Tunnel | Illumination | Sport | Transit | Industry | Campus, most are locally designed and manufactured, making them the best suited for African conditions.
