Design & Engineering

At each A.L.P. facility, teams of product engineers are available to support the design of superior proprietary and custom components and kits. Product managers and customers work carefully with our experts, and benefit from A.L.P. experience in lighting, optics and other specialties. From there, our manufacturing and testing personnel ensure that each component precisely matches the specs for materials and performance. As always, A.L.P. delivers cost-effective solutions and maintains the highest standards for excellence.

A.L.P. stays at the forefront of product design through continuous investment in cutting-edge software and technology. From the latest in document databases to advanced 3D prototyping, we make sure our engineers have access to state-of-the-art tools. Our in-house light lab performs photometric and materials testing to validate performance and review the long-term effects of UV, heat and chemicals.
