CARIBONI group was founded in 1908, with a precise aim: energy transmission. In the early 70s, the group decided to enter the field of lighting as CARIBONI ILLUMINAZIONE (renamed CARIBONI LITE in 2003) founded following the incorporation and the transformation of F.I.R. FABBRICA ITALIANA RIFLETTORI GARIBOLDI.

In 1993 Cariboni group incorporated FIVEP, founded from the amalgamation of two  eading brands: FIDENZA VETRARIA and POLLICE ILLUMINAZIONE.

FIVEP’s history began in 1921, as Società Italiana Isolatori Folembray; this company represented, in Italy, the first example of the conversion of a craft activity in the glass sector to industrial manufacture. Afterwards, it became FIDENZA VETRARIA and became known for the high quality of its fixtures, produced for external lighting in both urban and extra-urban contexts.Pollice Illuminazione, founded in 1933 and particularly strong in the production of high technology fittings, joined the group with an important history in this respect. Finally, the last company to join the group was SOLDI & SCATI, a leader in the field of street lighting and tunnel lighting.

In 2003, FIVEP changed its name and its go,

and enriched its range with new series of roducts specifically designed for the new  ield of urban furniture and architectural lighting. In addition to this, it consolidated its presence in the fields of street lighting, area lighting and tunnel lighting. FIVEP became FIVEP LITE and its slogan became: Light, Design and Technology.

CARIBONI GROUP is present all over the world, with its branches in France, Spain, Portugal and Tunisia with a series of worldwide well distributed commercial partners.
