reinterpretar, innovar, crear…
In 1984, José Luís Latrás Laguna was
a passionate entrepreneur with a very
clear aim: he wanted to dedicate his
life to his main passion: the light.
He created his own company and
soon his clear approach capacity
would enable him to take advantage
of the disruptive changes that the
lighting market was going through in
the 80’s/90’s: the emergence of the
new halogen and fluorescent lighting
sources formats.
From the very beginning, he was
aware that both an excellent quality
and customer service were the main
keys to the company’s success.
This philosophy, added to the daily
efforts, helped Arkoslight to reach
progressively a strong consolidation.
The firm is today enjoying a recognized
reputation at international level – even
in the most demanding markets –.
When the LED irrupted as a new
lighting source, Arkoslight again
succeeded in taking advantage of the
market situation. In addition to José
Luís Latrás’ commercial approach and
spirit of constant improvement, his son
Luís Latrás – currently the company’s
CEO – decided to implement the
products’ modernization and
sophistication process, always keeping
in mind their main challenge for design.
With this purpose, along with the
technical improvement process carried
out internally, the company has now
become a leading company at the
forefront of innovation.
