A significant legacy entered a new phase in 2019 under the leadership of Abramo Manfrotto, an entrepreneur closely connected to the world of lighting and industrial design.

“From a young age, I have been fascinated by light, observing it through the lens of professional photography. Accustomed to working with light that is precise, balanced, and capable of evoking emotion, I learned to recognize its expressive power and narrative potential. From there grew my interest in the world of lighting—as a natural evolution of a journey shaped by observation, technique, and visual sensitivity.”

– Abramo Manfrotto

Lino and Abramo Manfrotto revolutionized the photography industry with advanced technical solutions. From this foundation, ALU was born: a bridge between functionality and aesthetics in the world of retail design. A culture of innovation serving the project.

In 2019, Abramo Manfrotto acquired LEUCOS, marking the beginning of a new phase: simplified technologies, sustainability, long-lasting products, and a renewed interpretation of historic icons. The goal? To shape light with industrial precision and artisanal soul.

Timeless icons, today
