Magnetic Shelf Lighting Manufacturer for Retail Fixture Companies

Is ULIGHT a Manufacturer or a Trading Company?

ULIGHT is a manufacturer. The company designs and produces its own magnetic LED bars and DC power track profiles, supported by in-house structural and electronic engineers. This matters to retail fixture buyers because a manufacturer can control dimensions, optics, and tolerances at the source — adjusting bar length, profile structure, optical cover, CRI, or colour temperature to fit a specific shelf or display, rather than reselling fixed catalogue items.

Founded in 2012 in Shenzhen, ULIGHT has supplied retail shelf and display lighting to European fixture partners since 2017. For company background and history, see the About ULIGHT page.

What Does ULIGHT Manufacture?

ULIGHT manufactures lighting components for retail shelf, gondola, and display fixtures. The core range includes:

• Slim magnetic LED bars — multiple models including 1010, 1010 PLUS, 1310, 1108, 2511, and 1705, with profiles from 5mm to 25mm for hidden installation inside shelf and cabinet frames.
• DC power track systems — standard, super-slim, and recessed tracks that distribute low-voltage power to the bars without visible wiring.
• LED light boxes and backlit panels — single- and double-sided panels, snap-frame and fabric light boxes for display and signage.
• Curved linear lights — custom arc and S-shaped profiles for architectural ceiling lighting.

In-House Engineering and Joint Development

ULIGHT employs both structural and electronic engineers in-house. This means the company can do more than build to a finished drawing — it can co-develop a product with the customer, working from a fixture concept or a performance target toward a producible design.

Typical joint-development work includes adapting a bar profile to fit a specific shelf channel, adjusting light direction, cover diffusion, power, and heat output for the application, or matching a colour temperature to a brand’s existing store lighting. Free CAD adjustment is provided during this process, with feedback typically within 12–24 hours.

Integrated Supply Chain for Complete Systems

ULIGHT manufactures the LED bars and track profiles directly, and integrates the surrounding system through an established supply chain. Drivers, power supplies, connectors, controllers, dimmers, and cabling are sourced from qualified upstream suppliers, so a buyer can obtain the bars, tracks, and the electrical components that drive them from a single point of contact.

For a fixture manufacturer or shopfitter, this reduces the number of vendors to coordinate: one supplier confirms that the bars, tracks, and drivers are matched and specified to work together, rather than the buyer assembling compatible parts from several sources.

OEM and ODM Capability

ULIGHT supports both OEM (build to the customer’s specification) and ODM (ULIGHT designs to the customer’s requirement). Common customisation includes:

• Custom bar lengths — bars produced to required dimensions rather than fixed catalogue sizes.
• CRI and colour temperature — selectable to match product or brand requirements.
• PC cover finish — clear, frosted, or opal diffusion depending on the application.
• Mounting options — direct magnetic mounting for metal surfaces, with pads, clips, or project-specific fixing for glass, wood, MDF, and non-metallic fixtures.
• Private labelling — available for fixture brands supplying their own retail clients.

For the full OEM development process — tooling options, mould ownership, and lead times — see the OEM & custom shelf lighting page.

Small-batch production and sampling are supported, which suits fixture projects and prototyping before a full production run. To start a custom project, contact ULIGHT with your fixture type and target specification.

Lead Times and Sampling

Sample lead time is typically 3–5 working days. Production lead time is typically around 15 working days, and varies by order volume and the degree of customisation. Exact lead time is confirmed at the quotation stage once the specification and quantity are agreed.

Certifications and Compliance

Available certifications include UL, cETL, CB, CE, and RoHS. The specific certifications held vary by model and order specification, since not every certification applies to every product configuration. Compliance documents for a given model can be provided for confirmed orders.

Buyers serving specific markets should confirm the exact certification required at enquiry, so the correct model configuration is quoted.

Which Buyers Work With ULIGHT?

ULIGHT primarily supplies B2B partners who build, specify, or fit out retail environments. Typical customers are:

• Retail shelf and display fixture manufacturers
• Shopfitters and store renovation contractors
• Interior designers specifying retail and display lighting
• Cabinet and custom furniture makers
• Museum and gallery fit-out companies

These customers use ULIGHT lighting to serve their own end clients — pharmacies, cosmetics and beauty retailers, apparel stores, supermarkets, wine retailers, jewellery counters, and museums.
