One notable achievement came with the introduction of low-energy lighting. Beta Lighting's dedication to energy efficiency and innovative design garnered them the first-place award in the Standard Lamp (S.L.) Commercial category of the S.L. Philips Energy Luminaire Competition. Their award-winning luminaire was selected to replace traditional downlights in the prestigious Barbican Center in London, showcasing Beta Lighting's commitment to cutting-edge lighting solutions.

Always at the forefront of design, Beta Lighting consistently anticipated the next big trend, staying ahead of the industry curve.
1980’s
In the late 1980s, Abram Aronovsky retired, leaving behind a legacy of innovation and excellence. David Silver, who joined the company in the 1970s, assumed responsibility for expanding sales beyond domestic borders. Utilizing his deep understanding of the industry and building on Beta Lighting's success at home, David focused on establishing and strengthening business relationships across Europe and Asia.
During this period, the lighting industry underwent a significant shift with the advent of compact fluorescent lamps and a rising demand for energy-saving lighting solutions. David's strategic efforts were key in positioning Beta Lighting at the forefront of this change.
1990’s
Recognizing the immense potential in the North American market, Beta Lighting set up its North American facility named Beta-Calco, an abbreviation for Beta - Commercial Architectural Lighting Company.
2000’s
The next generation of leadership under Remy Silver, steered the company towards unprecedented success. His intrinsic design intuition and forward-looking mindset, succeeding the company’s legacy, catapulted Beta-Calco into a realm of pioneering LED lighting solutions. Within seven years, Remy turned the Beta-Calco satellite office into the new headquarters of the Beta brand.
Under Remy's stewardship, Beta-Calco flourished by consistently predicting upcoming trends, staying ahead of industry shifts, and pushing the limits of what was conceivable in product design. As Beta-Calco’s growth persisted, Remy reinforced its standing as a global innovator and fortified its position at the forefront of the ever-evolving lighting landscape.
