Our philosophy

The lighting instustry is changing. LED technology is in the focus. Great efforts are put into research and development. Light is redefined.

For us, this is the perfect moment to initialize our own collection of luminaires. The physics of LED, how light is emited, the high light density, and its directed light are a challenge in the design of new lamps.

 

How do you build highly efficient luminaires that do not blind? How to make sure that after the life cycle has ended replacement light modules are available? Should the aim be to make lamps of minimal sizes, or may the lamp be recognised as such? 

Schätti LED lights are a first answer to these questions.

The production in a mountain valley obliges us to produce in an environmentally friendly way and to constantly search for improvements in the processes. Since July 2021, we have been covering our own heating requirements with 100% "naturemade star" certified biogas. This means that we produce our efficient luminaires almost CO2 neutrally.

The Schätti company

In the third generation, the Swiss family-owned enterprise forms metal to innovative products. In addition to the core competence of metal furniture components, the three brothers Jos, Thomas and Stefan Schätti have established a second major mainstay in applinance production. Schätti has realised several lighting and design projects during the past years. For the production of luminaires, there is a broad array of production processes available in-house: CNC sheet metal forming, CNC lathing and milling, joining (welding, riveting, glueing), powder coating and wiring/assembling. Their extensive manufacturing expertise allows Schätti to flexibly adapt to customer wishes. All Schätti Leuchten products are Swiss Made.
