By:Avlite Systems | January 18, 2018

Sealite (t/a Avlite Systems) is pleased to announce the company has acquired a majority interest in Laser Guidance Inc.

Located in Washington, USA, Laser Guidance is a leading designer and manufacturer of LED precision lighting systems for the aviation industry. The range includes Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI), Helipad Approach Path Indicator (HAPI), Medium Intensity Approach Lighting with Sequenced Alignment (MALSR), expeditionary airfield lighting systems and other class-leading products. The company is a leader in the supply of niche products into civilian and defence markets.

Part of the Sealite Group, Avlite Systems was launched in 2005 to design and manufacture solar powered airfield lighting systems, helipad lighting systems, and obstruction lighting. The acquisition of Laser Guidance will give Avlite clients access to the widest range of portable airfield lighting products on the market for expeditionary or sustained uses.

Dr David Shemwell, Founder of Laser Guidance commented ‘Laser Guidance is excited to have its products integrated into Avlite Systems product range and have the ability to work with Avlite to design and develop new technologies for the airfield lighting market’.

Sealite/Avlite Systems CEO Chris Procter commented ‘Laser Guidance is well respected in the marketplace and we’re proud to have their products form part of our portfolio, as well as investing in their business to accelerate product development. Customers are increasingly wanting a single manufacturer to design and deliver their solar-powered airfield lighting systems, and this acquisition allows us to offer them more value than traditional integrators of 3rd party product’

Laser Guidance will continue to operate its facility in Redmond, WA, and Avlite estimates full integration of the Laser Guidance product offering into the Avlite range by March 2018.
