Amerlux Lighting Solutions, a premier provider of architectural lighting fixtures, today announces its acquisition of Dynamic Lighting Inc., a national manufacturer of outdoor lighting, fixtures and accessories based in Pearland, Texas.

Dynamic Lighting, a leader for more than 18 years in the outdoor lighting marketplace, offers a product line that includes a wide selection of decorative, commercial-quality poles and fixtures with efficient High Intensity Discharge (HID) and compact fluorescent light (CFL) sources. The company provides a wide range of highly customized outdoor lighting solutions for commercial properties, downtown streetscapes, residential subdivisions, and landscapes.

“This first acquisition by Amerlux is the initial step in broadening its product portfolio to better serve its client base, particularly architects and lighting designers who are demanding increased creativity in fixture design,” explained Amerlux Chairman of the Board Frank P. Diassi. “Dynamic Lighting will now have the resources and support of Amerlux’s outstanding design and marketing staff to further enhance its market presence.”

Amerlux President and CEO Chuck Campagna says he is looking forward to bringing Dynamic Lighting under the Amerlux umbrella. “Strategically, this acquisition broadens the offerings of both companies and brings together two respected, successful
organizations at a time when clients of both companies are looking for efficiencies in lighting and creative solutions,” Campagna said. “Dynamic Lighting will greatly benefit from Amerlux’s global marketing organization.”

Brad Somers, who has served as president of Dynamic Lighting, said his team is looking forward to working with Amerlux to grow the business Dynamic Lighting has honed for nearly two decades.

“This deal fulfills our company’s mission of striving to produce the best quality products with the greatest reach possible,” Somers said. “Our team is looking forward to joining Amerlux to provide world-class, efficient and cutting-edge lighting solutions to our
clients.”

Once the acquisition is complete, Somers will continue in the role of president of Dynamic Lighting. Edgeview Partners is serving as Amerlux’s investment banker on the transaction, which is slated to be completed on Dec. 31, 2008.
