Company

Lighting solutions that fit the project. Not the other way around.

Professional lighting for commercial projects. From standard fixtures available at short notice to project-specific procurement, as well as OEM and custom solutions.

Solutions for modern buildings.

We combine professional lighting with smart building automation and develop solutions
that are tailored to the specific requirements of each project.

As a KNX manufacturer, onework develops its own products for control, operation,
monitoring, and diagnostics, and integrates them seamlessly into existing system environments.

onework develops and integrates solutions for lighting and building automation in commercial settings. In doing so,
our own products, commercially available components, and established standards into a technically sound, comprehensive solution.

Our goal is not to sell as much as possible from a fixed product line.
What matters most is what works for the project - technically, economically, and in terms of implementation.

Project-oriented

We start with the specific requirement, not with a fixed product.

Open System

Custom solutions, established standards, and commercially available components can be flexibly combined.

Direct

Short communication channels and direct points of contact speed up decision-making and coordination.

Technically sound

From product selection and planning to integration and commissioning, we thoroughly evaluate the solution from a technical perspective.

What Sets onwork Apart

Short communication channels. Technical expertise. Flexible solutions.

onework combines technical expertise with a pragmatic approach to projects. Decisions should not be derailed by unnecessarily complex processes but should instead be made quickly and reliably.

We don’t view lighting and building automation as rigid product categories. We combine our own solutions, established standards, and commercially available components in a way that makes technical and economic sense for each specific project.

For us, collaboration on an equal footing is key. This involves direct coordination, clear responsibilities, and solutions that actually work in practice.
