The company aims to strengthen ties with French local administrations and open new avenues for collaboration in sustainable urban projects
Ximenez Group, a leading company in decorative and artistic lighting, will participate for the first time in the Salon des Maires et des Collectivités Locales, held in Paris from November 18 to 20, through its international subsidiaries Ilmex and Ximenez Illumination, the latter created to reinforce the group’s presence in France and consolidate its expansion in Central Europe.
Ximenez Group’s participation in the Salon des Maires is part of its international growth plan, which already has a strong presence in Spain and a growing presence in Europe, Latin America, and the United States. France represents a natural step in its organic development, allowing the company to bring its expertise and technology to new cities and local administrations across the country.
“France is a strategic market for us. Its sensitivity to sustainability, design, and innovation fits perfectly with Ximenez Group’s philosophy”, explains Cristina Domínguez, manager of Ilmex. “We want to offer French municipalities solutions that combine energy efficiency, beauty, and environmental respect—values that are at the heart of our company,” she adds.
At this event, which brings together suppliers and French local administrations, Ximenez Group will showcase its most innovative sustainable lighting solutions, highlighting Ecogreenlux—a patented technology that reduces light pollution by up to 93% and energy consumption by up to 60%—and Luxdeko, its efficient decorative lighting line that combines artistic design, recyclable materials, and low energy consumption. Both solutions align with the environmental and energy efficiency objectives promoted by French public entities.
“Our mission is to transform light into an experience that enhances urban life and provides social, cultural, and environmental value,” adds Cristina Domínguez. “At Ximenez Group, we work every day to merge technology and art into projects capable of inspiring emotions and making the cities of the future more sustainable.”
The Palace of Stars
The company’s exhibition space, titled “The Palace of Stars”, will offer an experience where tradition and innovation come together to showcase the endless creative possibilities of artistic lighting. With a design inspired by winter palaces, the stand will recreate a universe of light and color, where the classical elegance of Christmas interacts with a modern and sophisticated aesthetic.
Designed as a true showcase of the company’s creative and technical possibilities, the space combines the best of our Luxdeko and Ecogreenlux lines, displaying the range of projects, materials, and manufacturing processes that define our work.
Arches of stars surround the space, while an imposing Nutcracker guard stands watch over the stand, evoking the magic and symbolism of winter palaces. The result is a setting that excites both through its warmth and its meticulous attention to detail.
Deep blacks, dichroic reflections, and warm tones create an immersive, contemporary, and luminous atmosphere, where technical innovation blends with traditional beauty. “The Palace of Stars” not only showcases products but celebrates the ability to transform light and space into a sensory and emotional experience.
Strengthening Institutional Ties
In addition to presenting its technological solutions, the company will use the fair to strengthen relationships with local and regional institutions and share the values of a company with 80 years of history, which has gone from illuminating the streets of Puente Genil to transforming spaces worldwide through light, creativity, and sustainability.
