Lighting for Every Space

From architectural facades to industrial warehouses, NLC engineers lighting solutions that balance performance, energy efficiency, and aesthetics.

Energy-Efficient LED Technology

All solutions use premium LED components, reducing energy consumption by up to 70% vs traditional lighting.

Custom Lighting Design

Our team produces a custom photometric design for each project to hit the right illuminance and uniformity targets.

In-House Design Team, DIALux & 3ds Max

Our lighting designers run full photometric studies in DIALux and photo-realistic 3D simulations in 3ds Max, so you see exactly how every space will look and perform before a single fixture is installed.

Full-Cycle Project Support

From initial consultation and design to supply, installation, and commissioning, NLC handles it all.

Certified & Compliant Products

All luminaires meet international standards (IEC, CE, SASO) and are suitable for Saudi Arabia's climate conditions.

Designed Before It's Built

Every NLC project starts on screen, not on site. Here's how our designers move from a blank 3D model to a verified, photo-realistic delivery on any project - using DIALux for photometric analysis and 3ds Max for visualisation.

STEP 01 3DS MAX 3D site model in 3ds Max

3D Site Modeling

We start in 3ds Max with a precise 3D model of the site - geometry, surfaces, structures and mounting positions - so the simulation matches reality from the first frame.

STEP 02 AUTOCADDIALUX Comparing DIALux beam-spread distribution layouts

Distribution Options

DIALux beam-spread analysis of alternative fixture layouts, overlaid and compared side by side - coverage, uniformity and shadow zones - before committing to the optimal distribution.

STEP 03 AUTOCADDIALUX Pole-level fixture aiming study

Fixture Aiming Study

Drilling into a single mounting position: which fixture aims where, what each module covers, and how vertical and horizontal illuminance combine across the target surface.

STEP 04 DIALUX DIALux false-color lux verification

Lux-Level Verification

A final false-colour map showing the actual lux delivered on every square metre - every reading checked against the project's target lighting class.

STEP 05 3DS MAXLUMION Photo-realistic 3D render at night

Photo-Realistic Render

Stitched together in 3ds Max with the final fixtures and aiming applied - exactly how the project will look at night, before anything is installed.

The NLC R&D Center

A dedicated research & development center where every NLC luminaire begins life. Mechanical, electronic, optical and materials engineers work side-by-side under one roof - from first concept and CAD through prototyping, simulation, and pre-compliance testing.

Built around our own engineers, our own SMT line, and our own testing lab - so we control performance, cost and lead-time from the very first sketch to the finished luminaire.
