About

VELUX A/S, founded in Denmark in 1941, is the global market leader in roof windows, skylights, and sun tunnels. The company operates across 37 countries with approximately 11,500 employees and 19 production facilities, serving the residential, commercial, and industrial building sectors with products designed to introduce natural daylight and fresh air into interior spaces.

The company's core business centres on converting underutilised spaces - particularly attics - into habitable environments whilst improving building energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality. Its product portfolio spans roof windows for ventilation and daylighting, fixed and operable skylights, and tubular daylighting devices (sun tunnels) that channel natural light deep into buildings. These solutions address both the functional demands of construction and the growing emphasis on healthy indoor environments.

VELUX operates according to a Model Company Objective established in 1965, reflecting a commitment to developing solutions that benefit society broadly. The company invests substantially in research and innovation, positioning itself as a pioneer in healthy building initiatives that leverage natural light and ventilation to enhance occupant well-being. With over eight decades of operational history and significant manufacturing scale, VELUX maintains a focus on sustainable building practices and energy-efficient design.
