Our lighting poles has met the requirements of EU standards and regulations for class EXC3 welded steel and aluminium construction and engineering components and received the EN 1090-1 certificate of compliance from a third-party notified body, allowing the company to apply the CE mark on its products.
CORROSION RESISTANCE: hot-dip galvanising of steel posts and well-chosen alloys for aluminium posts result in long life of the posts, while prefabricated concrete foundation blocks provide perfect anti corrosion protection at the point of post contact with the soil.
HIGH DYNAMIC AND MECHANICAL STRENGTH: the unique spatial design of posts assures good durability and excellent vibration dampening which reduce failure frequency of fixtures and lamps.
FLEXIBLE AND LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN: unlike in concrete lamp posts, the deformation performance of our posts results in less severe collision damage of vehicles.
EXTRA LOW WEIGHT: this facilitates handling and transport – one truck can carry a large number of lamp posts.
MODERN DESIGN, MANY APPLICATIONS: our lighting poles are most often used in lighting systems for streets and roads, yards and plazas, as well as railway and sports facilities. Our products shed the light on historical and modern city centres, parks, gardens, residential districts, commercial areas and industrial premises.
Standard products are delivered galvanized, but also can be painted in a wide range of colors from RAL catalogue.

Manufacturing of metal sheet posts and masts.
Our lighting poles and masts are made of steel bands or sheet metal in class S235, S275 or S355 and in the thickness range from 2mm to 6mm (as required by structural strength). The bands and sheets are bent in polygonal or round sections with a constant taper. The posts are designed for installation on pre-cast concrete foundations or planting in cast-in place foundations. Most posts with the wall thickness of up to 4mm is made by longitudinal laser welding, which results in nearly invisible weld seams.
Manufacturing of tubular posts.
Tubular posts are made of steel pipes of suitable diameter with the wall thickness between 3mm6mm (as required by structural strength). The posts are monolithic thanks to pipe redrawing (with pitching tube diameter). This eliminates any need for longitudinal or circumferential welding, which results in improved aesthetic finish and continuous strength over the entire product length. The posts are designed for installation on pre-cast concrete foundations or planting in cast-in-place foundations. Our production program also features tubular posts for direct planting in the soil.
Manufacturing of post and mast flange plates.
The flange plates for posts and masts installed on pre-cast foundation blocks are made of stamped sheet with suitable ribbing and the fixing point completely concealed in the plate bottom. The flange plate fastening bolts and the hinge are also hidden in the plate bottom, which protects the bolt fasteners from ambient conditions. The bolt inspection holes are sealed with blind caps once the post (mast) has been bolted to the foundation structure. The flange plate design assures high aesthetic finish and compliance with the EN 12767 standard for passive safety of lighting columns. The flange plates for masts installed on monolithic foundations are made of 18mm to 40mm thick sheets with reinforcing ribbing of the mast to foundation interface.
Protective coating.
The outer and inner surfaces are protected against corrosion by hot-dip galvanising, resulting in the galvanic coating thickness as shown in the table. The durability of anti-corrosion protection guarantees maintenance-free operation of our posts and masts from dozen to several dozen years, depending on the ambient air (industrial, urban, coastal or rural). Posts and masts should be paint coated for use in highly aggressive air (i.e. sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and salt). We can coat our posts and masts with paints in any colours on order, including special paint coats: dirt resistant coats, fluorescent coats, photo luminescent coats, chameleon effect coats, and many more. Special coats may extend the life of the products.
Tubular posts for in-soil installation should have the soil contact portion coated with a bituminous compound up to 0.25m minimum above the ground level, according to EN 40-5.
Galvanic coating thickness on non centrifuged parts (EN ISO 1461 Table 2).
Steel thickness, mm | ||
Local coating thickness (minimum) | Mean coating thickness (minimum) | |
≥1,5 to <3 | 45µm (315g/m2) | 55µm (385g/m2) |
≥3 to <6 | 55µm (385g/m2) | 70µm (485g/m2) |
≥6 | 70µm (485g/m2) | 85µm (585g/m2) |
Hand hole doors.
Each column comes with hand hole doors which conceal and protect the internal electrical equipment. The door is a lid fastened to the post with a bolt lock operated with an Allen hex key. The door provides IP43 rating for the hand hole recess. The hand hole recess can accommodate a circuit breaker panel with the maximum dimensions of (width x depth x height):
Park and street lamp posts, H≤7 | 85 x 85 x 300mm |
Street lamp posts, H>7m | 95 x 110 x 400mm |
Tubular park lamp posts | 85 x 100 x 500mm |
Tubular street lamp posts, H≤7m | 85 x 100 x 500mm |
Tubular street lamp posts, H>7m | 100 x 120 x 500mm |
Octagonal street lamp posts | 100 x 115 x 400mm |
Lamp masts | 115 x 115 x 400mm |
Steel lighting masts have two hand hole doors for easy installation of electrical equipment. Each hand hole door features a PE terminal with an M10 bolt hole.
Fixing of poles and masts.
Lighting poles and masts feature a permanently fixed flange plate, which facilitates quick installation on concrete foundation structures or other sufficiently stable substrates. The product is fastened with regular bolts or anchor bolts. Street lighting poles with the height between 3 m and 12 m feature a hinged catch which facilitates erection.
The bolts and nuts for fastening the structures on monolithic foundations are protected against loosening and corrosion by protective caps which resist weather and mechanical damage.
Brackets.
Our production program features many types of brackets (heads) and other support parts for lamp fixture installation. The brackets for steel columns are available with the length of 0.5m, 1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m, 2.5m and 3.0m.
