ProPhotonix expands capacity and improves production flexibility with support from IDA
ProPhotonix (IRL) Ltd, a designer and manufacturer of LED illumination systems, part of the Exaktera group, has expanded its production capacity in Cork following an investment of €500,000. In addition to almost doubling capacity at the Little Island facility, this latest investment has also delivered increased production flexibility enabling ProPhotonix to deliver its LED lights faster for its diverse customer base.

It designs and manufactures LED lights including custom LED solutions for applications including machine vision, 3D printing, and disinfection. The company provides solutions across industrial, medical, and security markets. Among its customer base, ProPhotonix partners with six Fortune 20 customers.
