Lighting management leader Ex-Or Ltd has seen a huge increase in sales of its energy saving products and systems around the world as energy costs continue to soar.The company has enjoyed a 20 per cent year-on-year sales growth over the past three years, largely fuelled by an increase in its overseas sales. Building on its well established presence in Europe, it now has a significant export trade with Scandinavia, Australia, India, and the Middle and Far East.
Its controls and systems are installed in many more countries, too, as it supplies its lighting management equipment on an OEM basis to many of the international lighting industry's most prestigious names.
Said Ex-Or managing director Neil Jones: "Exports now account for more than 20 per cent of our business and the increase in our overseas activity has contributed to our doubling of turnover over the past three years.
We predict exports will account for 30 per cent of our business by the end of this year as overseas customers continue to recognise that effective and automatic lighting management is an ideal way of curbing ever-rising energy costs."
