In the Chicago suburb of Des Plaines, IL, Juno Lighting was founded in 1976 by Robert Fremont. Having previously founded another lighting company, Fremont knew how he wanted his new company to run, and what it would provide: high-end business and residential lighting. It established its reputation with the Trac-Master track lighting system and continued to grow through the acquisition of several other related lighting brands.
Today, as part of Schneider Electric, the Juno Lighting Group is comprised of seven industry leading brands, including Juno, Aculux and Alfa.
Juno Lighting is excited by the constant evolution of technologies available within the lighting industry and has eagerly explored their potential. They are especially appreciative of the efficiency of LED, CFL and CMH (ceramic metal halide) technologies and have created a wide range of innovative track and recessed lights to both employ these existing technologies and, through careful design and engineering, help aid their advancement. The result is sleek, modern lighting that embodies energy efficiency and sustainability without compromising performance.
Juno Lighting's parent company, Schneider Electric, was founded in Le Creusot region of France in 1836. Their business at that time was steel, mainly for the construction of railroads and shipbuilding. It wasn't until after WWI that Schneider expanded into electricity. When the steel sector began to slip, the company looked to make electricity its sole focus in the 1980s. The company's current name of Schneider Electric was established in May 1999, marking its complete transition to the electrical market.
The Trac-Master track lighting system was one of the first collections that Juno Lighting created, and it remains the company's flagship collection. It comes with a wide range of rail, contemporary track heads, decorative pendants and customizing accessories to accommodate virtually any lighting need.
