A combination of design, comfort and innovation
Lighting plays an increasingly important role in the kitchen. Not only functional but also aesthetic, the picture must be right. And the German lighting specialist Hera understands this like no other. The company from Enger proves time and again with their innovations why they are a fixture for kitchen builders.
Lighting should provide atmosphere as well as functionality. But the lighting fixtures themselves, they should be as invisible as possible. And if possible, smart lighting. That's quite a challenge but one they are happy to take on at Hera. Their recently launched Smart System brings together innovation and ease of use by integrating the controller directly into the transformer, drastically reducing wiring. Assembly and planning are easier, the kitchen even more beautiful.

It is notable that Hera is breaking out with a strong custom segment. Michael Hoekstra of Hera: "Individually configured lighting solutions do indeed make up a good chunk of our sales. The customer is king and if he wants a unique solution, our developers get to work. A smart online configurator allows customers to easily put together their own fixtures. Kitchen and interior designers thus draw the lighting fixtures themselves, fully tailored to their design."
Due to growing demand, Hera decided on a significant investment, namely a 1,500-square-meter expansion. This immediately doubled their capacity for assembly and metalworking and also provides additional storage space. "We are ready to achieve additional growth," Hoekstra said. "Lighting in the kitchen is more than just a light above the sink. It is design, comfort and innovation."
