Don’t replace. Renew.
Why replace an entire luminaire when the base can last for years to come? In the lighting world we talk a lot about sustainability and circularity. But in our view, circularity does not begin with making something new. It begins with looking at what is already there.
New in our range: the Hexa surface-mounted spots
New in our range: the Hexa. A series of compact, round LED surface-mounted spots from Atolux, with a distinctive hexagonal louver that combines comfortable, low-glare light with a sleek, minimalist look.
Social entrepreneurship: why our luminaires are assembled at social workplaces
At Atomis, social entrepreneurship is not a footnote on the last page of a sustainability report, but a choice that becomes visible at the very place where our luminaires are actually put together. A large part of our assembly takes place in close cooperation with social workplaces and inclusive enterprises in the Netherlands — deliberately, and for good reason.
Apple Museum Utrecht: light that brings stories to life
In early April 2026 the Apple Museum Utrecht opened its doors — exactly around Apple’s fiftieth anniversary. In the iconic The Wall complex in Leidsche Rijn, Atomis supplied the complete lighting that supports and reinforces the visitor experience.

Renovation and retrofit by Atomis: extend the life of your lighting

New accessories take the Zumo Vario to the next level
The Zumo Vario series gains a complete accessory programme: from honeycomb louver and barndoors to interchangeable lenses, snoots and colour filters. Our most versatile spotlight series becomes even more widely applicable — in museums, retail, hospitality and offices.
We are looking for a Junior Sales / Account Manager
Atomis is growing, and we are looking for reinforcement: a Junior Sales / Account Manager (full-time, head office Hoofddorp) who wants to develop in the world of architectural lighting. Join us on remarkable lighting projects where design, technology and experience come together.
Inlite: comfortable downlighting without glare
With Inlite, Atomis expands its range with a new series of recessed LED downlights that combines high light performance with a low glare level. Comfortable light becomes the starting point, not an afterthought.
Light as part of the architecture, not an afterthought
Good lighting does not start with luminaires, but with the space. Bringing light in too late costs quality in architecture, material experience and use.
Human-centric lighting: why atmosphere and comfort matter in professional lighting
Human-centric lighting is about more than dynamics or technology. Comfort, visual calm and atmosphere all shape how professional spaces are experienced.
From lumens to experience: why specifications only gain value in the space
Lighting specifications are necessary, but real quality only emerges in the space. Context determines whether performance is actually experienced as good.
Circular and efficient design: the new standard for project lighting
Energy efficiency, lifespan and maintainability weigh ever more heavily in project lighting. That calls for sober, long-lasting, usable choices.
