The company is headquartered at 110 Heartland Boulevard in Brentwood, New York, and expanded its distribution footprint in 1988 with the opening of a Dallas warehouse.
Product Lines
Satco's catalog spans commercial lighting such as troffers, track systems, downlights, high bays, and linear fixtures, alongside residential and decorative fixtures including chandeliers, pendants, sconces, and vanity lights.
The brand also produces industrial lighting solutions like floodlights and security lighting, smart lighting systems with connected controls, and a components line covering ballasts, drivers, wiring, dimmers, and lamp parts. Lamp offerings cover LED, fluorescent, HID, halogen, and incandescent technologies.
Why Contractors Specify Satco
Electrical contractors managing mixed commercial and residential workloads specify Satco because a single line covers lamps across every major technology, LED, fluorescent, HID, halogen, and incandescent, alongside the fixtures and components those lamps go into.
Having ballasts, drivers, wiring, and dimmers available from the same manufacturer as the fixtures simplifies retrofit and repair work where matching components to existing fixtures matters. The breadth of the catalog, spanning commercial troffers and high bays to residential chandeliers and vanity lights, lets contractors source lighting for varied project types without switching suppliers.
How to Choose Satco Products
Start with the space being lit: commercial and industrial jobs point toward troffers, high bays, linear fixtures, or floodlights, while residential remodels call for decorative fixtures like pendants, sconces, and vanity lights.
For retrofit projects, matching the lamp technology to the existing fixture and ballast or driver type avoids compatibility issues. Projects specifying connected or automated lighting should look to Satco's smart lighting systems, and any repair work replacing a ballast, driver, or dimmer should be matched against the original component's specifications before installation.
