Headquartered in Hong Kong and in Paderborn, Germany, Traxon Technologies is a leading global supplier of professional LED systems & solutions which include luminaires and lighting control systems. LED solutions for the architecture, hospitality and shop segments are marketed under the brand names of Traxon and e:cue. Over 4,000 installations and projects around the world, including Worldwide Plaza in New York and the "Christ the Redeemer" statue on Sugar Loaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro, testify to Traxon's achievements in this field.

Traxon operates worldwide in the key markets of Asia, Latin America, Europe, Middle East and North America.

"Acquiring Traxon is an important step for OSRAM on its way to becoming one of the leading suppliers of LED lighting solutions. With our technology, we provide the right light, in the right amount, at the right place, at the right time" said Klaus-Gunter Vennemann, CEO of OSRAM's General Lighting business unit.
