ABOUT
Let’s get brighter
Let’s get brighter, It’s our mindset.
In these times of uncertainty, we will work together to come out stronger, more resilient, more connected, more thoughtful, more committed, more flexible... BRIGHTER! Together, we will get brighter!
In this part of the Mediterranean, the light shines with a special purity and intensity, lighting everything extremely clearly and flawlessly.
At BPM Lighting, we have taken this inspirational lighting as a requisite for making architectural lighting with the best qualities and design.
After 56 years of experience, we have managed to develop the best production systems by combining the most cutting-edge technology with artisanal processes.
This way we are able to offer the best solution for each project, with the ability to adapt and customise (almost) without limits.
HISTORY
1963
It all started more than 56 years ago, when Bernardo Palomares senior, a Valencian entrepreneur, created Bronces ROPARPA, the family’s first connection to lamp manufacturing.
1982
His children took over the family business. The experience helps Bernardo create his own vision of the sector’s future.
1992
After leaving Roparpa, Bernardo founded BPM. A company completely focused on the design and manufacture of a more modern and conceptual type of lamp which was not solely for the purpose of illuminating.
1996
The third generation of the family joins the company, occupying management roles in the commercial, financial and production fields.
2000
The factory moves from Alaquás to Denia. This move to a more conducive environment allowed Bernardo and his team of designers to unleash their inventiveness and creativity.
2007
The global economic crisis hits and competitors from China emerge. BPM decides to focus on quality, innovation and, above all, design.
2008
BPM manages its international expansion through the External Promotion Initiation Plan to seek out new markets. Laying the groundwork for the global establishment of BPM which is currently present in more than 40 countries.
2009
The first BPM branch opens in Poland, which is established as the logistics and commercial headquarters for northern and eastern Europe.
2010
CRISMOSIL is born, an innovative material made of a special fibreglass plaster and acrylic resins. Completely artisanal manufacturing gives these luminaires resistance that is comparable to those made from aluminium and they completely integrate into the space.
2016
The important business growth experienced by BPM in the last years resulted in the creation of its new headquarters in Denia, Spain, from where each day BPM products are designed, manufactured and marketed worldwide.
2019
BPM Lighting continues its phase of expansion and consolidation in different international markets. Developing projects across Europe, China, South-east Asia and South Africa. Collaborating with important architecture and interior design studios.
AIM
The WELL Building Standard THIS is our commitment with enhancing human health and well-being. A revolution in the way people think about buildings
The WELL Building Standard explores how design, operations and behaviors within spaces where we live, work and play can be optimized to advance human health and well-being.
The current v2 version is structured in a 11 concepts scheme to approach health and provides insights and recommendations for the 90% of time we spend indoors. Introduced in 2014 by the IWBI (International Well Building Institute), this standard is the first of its kind to focus on people in the built environment helping us to live our lives to the fullest.
WELL v2 is founded in the principles of being equitable, global, evidence based, technical robust, costumer focused and resilient.
It covers the Concepts of Air, Water, Nourishment, Light, Movement, Thermal Comfort, Sound, Materials, Mind, Community and Innovation. The quality of lighting is considered to be one of the most important aspects in the built environment.
The Light Concept of WELL v2 promotes exposure to light and aims to create lighting environments that are optimal not only for visual but also for mental and biological health.
This concept has 9 features split up into 2 mandatory preconditions (Light Exposure, Visual Lighting Design) and 7 optimizations (Circadian Lighting Design, Electric Light Glare Control, Daylight Design Strategies, Daylight Simulation, Visual Balance, Electric Light Quality and Occupant Lighting Control).
We follow the IALD (International Association of Lighting Designers) and LIRC (Lighting Industry Resource Council) guidelines for WELL Ratings Systems for manufacturers on melanopic ratios, glare control, color rendition and flicker.
