Orbik currently employs around 200 people in its purpose-built four acre factory in Aldridge in the West Midlands, undertaking state-of-the-art in-house production, precision metal engineering and powder coating facilities.

Orbik was established in 1982, initially supplying control gear to lighting companies across the UK and quickly developed into a respected manufacturer of high quality lighting and emergency lighting products.

Constant sales growth allowed the company to expand and before long, Orbik became a reputable name across Europe and the Middle East.

Continual product development created an increased demand for metal work and in 1993 Orbik acquired Metalforms Engineering, a quality highly automated manufacturer of precision sheet metalwork. Metalforms’ modern manufacturing site covers 30,000 square feet and includes in-house powder coating and wet spray facilities.

In 2001, SPEL was formed to specifically target the electrical wholesale industry with the supply of emergency lighting products. In 2007 SPEL was fully integrated into the Orbik group and is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the company. This has allowed the Orbik brand to increase its presence in the UK market and has grown to offer a comprehensive range of lighting, fire and safety products.

Throughout their history, Orbik have always been at the forefront in the innovation and design of safety equipment and have been enthusiastic supporters of improving quality standards within the industry. Today Orbik has over 400 products approved by BSI, proudly carrying the Kitemark symbol and are represented on the technical committees of BSI, ICEL, and the LIA.

By identifying and responding to individual customers’ specific requirements, Orbik have become the first choice to many leading International lighting companies, UK original equipment manufacturers and electrical wholesalers.

To ensure they maintain their competitive advantage, Orbik have invested heavily in automatic assembly processes, allowing them to offer their renowned World class standards and a flexible, efficient supply of quality products.

Orbik’s flexibility towards customer needs have enabled their products to be included in many prestigious installations throughout the UK and overseas over the years. An already extensive lighting range has been considerably increased to include LED mains and emergency lighting, as well as a range of products which can include DALI, dimmable and microwave presence detector applications as options.

In 2005 Orbik made its first move into the fire detection and safety systems market and is now a major stockist of fire alarm and specialist safety equipment to suit a variety of applications. Orbik are now major stockists of some of the largest fire brands in the World and have developed a highly trained UK sales team to support the design, supply, commissioning and service of the product range.

At Orbik, we are dedicated to providing our customers with the highest quality products and services by continually monitoring current market trends.

Through continuous investment in new products, staff development and the latest technology, we are committed to offering a professional business solution to a rapidly expanding and demanding market place.
