Chauvet Acquires LynTec: Two Brand Partners Come Together

SUNRISE, FL – In keeping with its mission of providing customers with cutting edge technological solutions, Chauvet has acquired LynTec, a leading global supplier of electrical power solutions for lighting, video, and audio systems. Founded in 1982, Lenexa, Kansas-based LynTec is widely known for its advanced lighting control panels, with these products installed in well over 10,000 sites throughout the world.

“With the addition of LynTec to our group of companies, we will be able to offer our customers a complete solution that embraces lighting, video, show programming, and control at every level from the creation of a design, to the control of power at an installation,” said Albert Chauvet, CEO of Chauvet. “We not only value LynTec for its technology, we’ve also been very impressed by the company’s ongoing commitment to improving its products and level of service to customers. In this respect, it mirrors the same values that have powered the growth of Chauvet.”

Like Chauvet, LynTec has been dedicated to offering effective value driven solutions to every segment of its markets. For example, in the House of Worship market, its panels have been used at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral and Church of the Highlands, as well as at churches serving only a small number of worshippers. The same diversity is also very evident in its mix of theatrical, sports center and entertainment venue business, as its products are found in NHL arenas, as well as at high school auditoriums.

“We are very excited to be joining the Chauvet family based on our shared commitment to providing excellence to our customers in all facets,” said Mark Bishop, President of LynTec. “The synergies between the two companies will enable us to continue developing outstanding products while providing unmatched customer service and project solutions for our current and future customers.”

In addition to lighting control panels, such as the award-winning LCP Lighting Control Panel, LynTec makes remote control circuit breaker/relay panels, and Pro AV control panels. As it’s grown, the company has continued to develop innovations. At LDI 2022 it introduced the highly acclaimed PDS-12 Sequencing Relay Panel and Smart Switch Sets. Given this commitment to innovation and customer, LynTec should find itself right at home at Chauvet.
