LightLab was founded in 1986 as an independent photometric laboratory serving the Australian lighting industry. From day one the proposition was simple: test products accurately and quickly, give manufacturers the data they need to sell, and give specifiers the data they need to design.
In the decades since, the equipment has changed from filament lamps to solid-state lighting, from printed reports to digital IES files, from national compliance to international standards. What hasn’t changed is the approach: independent, accredited, and technical first.
In 1996 LightLab became the Australian reseller for AGI32, the US-developed lighting design software that has since become a standard tool in architecture, engineering and lighting specification globally. Today we also resell Hagner measurement instruments and publish technical references used across the industry.
From our Brisbane laboratory, we serve manufacturers, importers, regulators, hospitals, transport authorities and government clients across Asia Pacific.
