About us

Build to light, build to last

Your solutions for Architectural Lighting.

At TLS, we are driven by innovation and excellence. Born from Media-Graph's commitment to pushing the boundaries of lighting technology, TLS was established in 2012 as a breakthrough solution for versatile and uniform surface lighting.

Our inception

Founded in 2012 as an offshoot of Media‑Graph, TLS was born to solve the limitations of conventional high-intensity LED lighting in non-standard formats.Born from a passion for merging light and architecture, TLS transforms the way designers think about illumination.

Our technology

With its proprietary “Tension LED System” (TLS), the company offers a substrate-free, point-to-point mounting solution that delivers uniform backlighting across any architectural surface eliminating hotspots, simplifying installation and maintenance, and enhancing acoustic integration.

Our skills

Backed by in-house design and production capabilities, TLS emphasizes customization any shape, size, or pitch, to meet project-specific requirements. Their mission: to provide professionals with lighting systems that combine performance, ease of use, and design freedom.

Innovative Lighting Solutions

The creation of TLS was inspired by the challenges associated with traditional high-intensity LED technology used in non-standard frame formats. Problems like complex assembly, uneven brightness, and transportation difficulties highlighted the need for a better approach. In response, our team at Media-Graph embarked on extensive research and development to create the Tension LED System (TLS).

A Revolutionary Lighting Solution

The Tension LED System (TLS) is a cutting-edge, versatile lighting solution designed to address the limitations of conventional LED technologies. With our proprietary point-to-point, substrate-free mounting design, TLS seamlessly integrates into any architectural environment, ensuring uniform backlighting across various diffuser options, regardless of plenum depth.

Built for Performance and Simplicity

Our in-house design and production capabilities enable us to create tailored solutions that fit any project requirements. TLS technology significantly enhances lighting effects, especially when paired with SEG fabric, by eliminating hotspots and dark spots. Additionally, TLS ensures hassle-free maintenance and easy assembly, making it the preferred choice for professionals seeking reliable and uniform lighting.
