The History

Founded in 1927 in Châtillon-sur-Saône, Sammode (Société d’Application des Méthodes MODernes d’Éclairage) is an iconic name in French lighting. From the very beginning, the brand made its mark with revolutionary tubular luminaires designed for the most demanding industrial environments. By introducing the hermetically sealed fluorescent tube (TFH), Sammode made history in technical lighting. Today, it remains true to its roots while embracing innovation, collaborating with renowned designers to reinvent its creations.

Craftsmanship and Expertise: French Excellence

Every Sammode luminaire is designed and manufactured in France, at the Châtillon-sur-Saône workshops. This artisanal process guarantees exceptional quality, where every detail is meticulously crafted to ensure durability and elegance. The materials used—stainless steel, borosilicate glass, and aluminum—are selected for their resilience, ability to withstand extreme conditions (-60°C to +200°C), and refined aesthetics.

Sammode is also committed to sustainability by offering repairable and upgradable luminaires, ensuring remarkable longevity while minimizing environmental impact.
