Bajaj Electricals has partnered with Slovakia-based SEAK s.r.o. to enhance tunnel lighting systems across India. This collaboration focuses on delivering intelligent lighting control systems using SEAK’s patented powerline communication technology.
Bajaj Lighting, a key player in India’s lighting industry, has expertise in indoor, outdoor, architectural, and tunnel lighting. The company has already implemented advanced lighting in projects like the Mumbai Coastal Road Tunnel. This new partnership with SEAK strengthens its position in the tunnel lighting segment.
SEAK, established in 1988, specialises in smart lighting and EV charging control systems. Its communication technology enables reliable and scalable lighting control, which is crucial for tunnels that require high safety and energy efficiency standards.
The partnership aims to support India’s expanding infrastructure network. With multiple tunnel projects underway, the demand for efficient lighting systems is increasing. Bajaj and SEAK intend to meet this need with modern solutions designed for operational performance and safety.
As part of the collaboration, Bajaj will integrate SEAK’s control systems into its tunnel lighting offerings. The goal is to make India’s tunnel infrastructure more intelligent and sustainable.
