XAL

XAL is an Austrian manufacturer of architectural luminaires and lighting systems, founded in 1989 by Andrew and Claudia Hierzer in Graz. The company today ranks among the world's leading manufacturers of high-quality lighting for retail, office, hotel and residential applications. As an early LED pioneer, XAL has built a global footprint over three decades: around 1,300 employees, over 30 international locations with dedicated research, production and sales units on five continents. Major subsidiaries outside Graz operate in Munich, Zurich, London and New York. The Red Dot Design Award and the iF Design Award are among the brand's documented design recognitions.

XAL's product programme covers track systems (signature: MOVE IT — a modular track concept with maximum flexibility), recessed spotlights, pendant and surface-mount systems, as well as bespoke solutions for architecture projects. The XAL Group includes two strategic brands: WEVER & DUCRÉ (founded in the early 1980s as one of the first design lighting companies in the Benelux region, part of the XAL Group since 2011, currently exporting to 60 countries) and Wästberg (Swedish designer lighting brand, founded in 2008 by Magnus Wästberg, in which XAL holds a minority stake).

For architects, interior designers and lighting planners seeking a technically demanding, internationally positioned Austrian lighting specialist with a broad system portfolio, LED expertise from the earliest days and a proven track record on high-end retail, hospitality and office projects, XAL is the most credible address in the premium architectural lighting segment.
