AES Industries, Inc. Acquires Sunoptics Prismatic Skylights from Acuity Brands Lighting, Inc.

Tallassee, AL, October 17, 2022 --(PR.com)-- AES Industries, Inc. (AES) has announced that it has entered into an agreement with Acuity Brands Lighting, Inc. to purchase its Sunoptics Prismatic Skylights business.

AES expects the transaction to close on November 10, 2022.

Sunoptics designs and manufactures prismatic skylights and daylighting delivery systems that harness the power of the sun to maximize the cost-effective energy savings of daylighting in classrooms, offices, retail and warehousing applications.

AES, one of the nation’s largest manufacturers of roof curbs and provider of specialty recycling and landfill avoidance programs, has worked with Sunoptics since 1994. The AES and Sunoptics relationship grew substantially when owners of national retail stores recognized the benefits of high-performance prismatic daylighting for energy efficiency, increased productivity, and retail sales.

Nationwide, there are well over one million AES roof curbs that have been installed in conjunction with Sunoptics Prismatic Skylights.

“The acquisition of Sunoptics expands AES’ product and solutions offerings, strengthening our ability to provide planned-reactive replacement as aging skylights reach their end-of-life status,” said Jason Benton, President of AES Industries, Inc. “Our goal is to create a seamless transition period so that Sunoptics customers continue to receive the best in industry quality and delivery to meet their project needs.”
