[edit] History

Originally founded in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, the then lifestyle and design company Traxon expanded its operations throughout Europe and finally moved to Hong Kong in the mid-nineties, from where it pioneered the nascent LED market with its MOOD LIGHTClassic panel: the first remote-controlled LED fixture for the consumer market. Throughout the years 2000 to 2003, Traxon started shifting its business focus from B2C lifestyle products to professional architectural LED lighting fixtures.

With the opening of the Hong Kong Science and Technology Park in 2005, Traxon fully moved its headquarters to Hong Kong SAR, where it benefits from testing laboratories and common testing facilities with other HKSTP companies such as Cree, Fujitsu, GP Electronics, Lighthouse, Philips. With Research & Development divisions in both Germany and Hong Kong, Traxon currently serves 10 overseas offices, a network of distributors, integrators and clients worldwide.
