WHO WE ARE

Welcome to Clarus Lighting + Controls! We always like to start our story and what we do by defining the Latin word, clārus:

  1. clear, bright
  2. renowned, famous, illustrious
  3. upstanding, respected
  4. loud, clear, distinct, audible*

At Clarus we are experts in lighting, but more importantly, we are champions of the process.

Our 6 founding partners have close to 200 years of combined experience working directly with lighting manufacturers, architects, designers, electrical engineers, contractors, distributors and more to make any project come to light.

Since we opened our doors in 2013, Clarus has been built on sharing knowledge and highlighting the strengths of our employees and the organizations we work with.

We build personal connections with our customers and understand their needs before we recommend any solutions from our 140+ lighting manufacturers.

If you’re looking for a team who knows the lighting process from start to finish, that’s Clarus.

We will work to ensure that your project, no matter the size, is delivered in a cost-effective, visually impressive fashion creating a successful experience for all stakeholders.
