What Is Poland LIGHT (Warsaw Lighting Fair)?
Poland LIGHT — also known as the Warsaw Lighting Fair — is Poland’s dedicated professional lighting exhibition, held at Warsaw Expo (Warszawskie Centrum Wystawiennicze). It is one of the largest and most representative lighting shows in Central Europe, with exhibitors from Poland, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Ukraine, China and across the EU.
Historically the show has covered 4 exhibition halls with over 13,000 m², drawing around 15,000 professional visitors and 500 exhibitors — including more than 200 Chinese suppliers. It is a B2B-handelsevenement: consumenten en bezoekers onder de 18 jaar worden niet toegelaten en ter plaatse vindt geen detailhandel plaats.

Why Poland Is a Key Lighting Market
Poland is not just another EU market — it is the fastest-growing lighting market in Central Europe and the natural gateway to the entire CEE region. Several structural drivers make it worth your attention:
Housing boom
Poland has a well-documented housing shortage, with millions of new apartments planned across Warsaw, Kraków, Wrocław and the Tri-City. Every new residential project needs strip lighting, under-cabinet light and façade lighting.
Retail & commercial expansion
Poland is one of Europe’s largest retail markets. New shopping centres, hypermarkets, and fast-fashion chains drive continuous demand for linear lighting, track and accent lighting systems.
Gateway to CEE
From Warsaw, importers distribute to Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Ukraine and the Baltics. A Polish warehouse doubles as a regional hub.
“Belt and Road” logistics
Direct rail and sea links from Chinese factories to Gdańsk and Warsaw cut lead times versus other EU destinations — a real advantage for just-in-time ordering.
Wie moet aanwezig zijn
Poland LIGHT is most useful if you are:
- Importeurs en distributeurs van verlichting — looking for OEM/ODM brands, private-label programs and factory-direct pricing for the Polish and CEE channel.
- Groothandel in elektriciteit — sourcing SKUs with CE/RoHS compliance and reliable lead times for the Polish installation trade.
- Architecten en lichtontwerpers — specifying LED strips, profiles and linear systems for residential, retail and office projects.
- Aannemers en projectkopers — comparing complete systems for large tenders across Poland and neighbouring markets.
- Merkeigenaren — het scouten van contractfabrikanten en het benchmarken van de productkwaliteit en prijzen van Chinese exposanten.
Hoe u zich kunt voorbereiden als koper
Walking the show cold wastes three days. Before you fly to Warsaw:
1. Definieer uw projectenlijst
List the projects you are quoting — apartment fit-outs, retail chains, office refurbishments — and the technical specs each needs (voltage, CRI, IP rating, CCT, control protocol).
2. Boek vergaderingen vooraf
E-mail de leveranciers die u weken van tevoren wilt zien. Neem monsters, tekeningen, streefhoeveelheden en uw richtprijs mee; de standtijd is beperkt.
3. Vergelijk compliancedocumenten
For the EU 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. Ga na de show direct naar de bron
Merken op de beursvloer scoren doorgaans 30-60%. Dezelfde producten worden meestal gemaakt door Chinese OEM-fabrieken. Maak foto's, onderdeelnummers en catalogi en neem vervolgens rechtstreeks contact op met de fabriek.
Why Source LED Lighting from China (and Why Lightstec Makes Sense for Poland)
Most of the lighting brands you will meet at Poland LIGHT are designed in Europe but manufactured in China. Working directly with the factory cuts out the middleman and gives you shorter lead times, customisation and private-label flexibility.
