What Is Electronist ELEX?
Elektrikář ELEX is Turkey’s leading lighting and electronics exhibition, held annually at the Istanbul Expo Center / DTM World Trade Center. Run together with Turkey’s largest LED lighting exhibition, it is the most influential trade show in Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, West Asia and North Africa.
The show covers lighting, LEDs, optoelectronics, displays and electronic components — making it the single best place to see both the finished lighting market and the supply chain behind it. It is a B2B akce pouze pro obchod: Spotřebitelé a návštěvníci mladší 18 let nejsou povoleni a na místě neprobíhá žádný maloobchodní prodej.

Why the Turkish Lighting Market Matters
Turkey sits at the crossroads of Europe and Asia and is one of the fastest-growing lighting markets in the wider region. Several structural drivers make it worth your attention:
Manufacturing boom
Turkey’s manufacturing sector has grown rapidly. Local assembly plants need LEDs, strips, profiles and drivers at competitive prices — direct-from-factory sourcing is in high demand.
Regional distribution hub
From Istanbul, Turkish importers distribute to the Middle East, Central Asia, North Africa and Eastern Europe — a single hub for a huge, fast-growing market.
Construction & retail growth
Infrastructure, commercial and retail construction across Turkey drives steady demand for LED strips, profiles and architectural lighting.
Price-sensitive, quality-conscious
Turkish buyers are highly price-sensitive but increasingly demand certified, reliable products. Factories that can offer CE/RoHS and honest specs win the order.
Kdo by se měl zúčastnit
Electronist ELEX is most useful if you are:
- Lighting importers and distributors — looking for OEM/ODM brands, private-label programs and factory-direct pricing for Turkey and the wider region.
- Electronics and component buyers — comparing LEDs, drivers, connectors and optoelectronic components for local assembly.
- Architects and lighting designers — specifying LED strips, profiles and linear systems for commercial and architectural projects.
- Wholesalers and contractors — sourcing SKUs with CE/RoHS compliance for the Turkish installation trade.
- Brand owners — scouting contract manufacturers and benchmarking product quality and pricing from Chinese exhibitors.
Jak se připravit jako kupující
Walking the show cold wastes two days. Before you fly to Istanbul:
1. Define your project list
List the projects you are quoting — commercial lighting, retail chains, architectural projects — and the technical specs each needs (voltage, CRI, IP rating, CCT, control protocol).
2. Pre-book meetings
Pošlete e-mail dodavatelům, které chcete vidět, týdny předem. Přineste vzorky, výkresy, cílové množství a cílové cenové rozpětí – doba stánku je omezená.
3. Compare compliance documents
For the Turkish / regional market, ask every booth for CE Declaration, RoHS, and (for projects) IES photometric files, LM-79 reports and IEC 62471 blue-light safety reports.
4. Po představení jděte přímo ke zdroji
Značky na výstavní ploše obvykle dosahují 30–60 %. Stejné produkty jsou obvykle vyráběny čínskými OEM továrnami. Pořiďte fotografie, čísla dílů a katalogy – poté kontaktujte přímo továrnu.
Why Source LED Lighting from China (and Why Lightstec Makes Sense for Turkey)
Most of the lighting brands you will meet at Electronist ELEX are assembled in Turkey or the region but their LEDs, strips and profiles are manufactured in China. Working directly with the factory cuts out the middleman and gives you shorter lead times, customisation and private-label flexibility.
