Luceco Group appoints Dr Thorsten Müller as CEO from September 2026, bringing global experience in electrification and lighting technology.
Luceco Group, a major manufacturer of residential and commercial electrification products and lighting systems, has announced the appointment of Dr Thorsten Müller as its new Chief Executive Officer. He will officially take up the position on 1 September 2026, bringing extensive leadership background across international industrial technology, electrification, and energy management sectors.
Luceco is a familiar manufacturer on trade counter shelves across the UK, supplying everything from site lighting and extension leads to commercial wiring accessories and EV charging equipment. A shift in executive leadership at a primary supplier can influence product development strategies, brand focus, and global supply chain operations over the coming years.
What does this mean for a UK tradesperson or DIYer actually buying this kit — does it change what they should pay, buy, or watch out for?
In the immediate term, this executive transition will not alter pricing, product availability, or standard warranty support at distributors such as Screwfix, Toolstation, or independent electrical wholesalers. Tradespeople using Luceco, BG Electrical, or Masterplug items can expect business as usual. Longer term, Müller’s background in energy management and global technology suggests Luceco may accelerate its focus on smart electrification, integrated home energy devices, and commercial lighting controls. Electricians should keep an eye on future product launches around 2026 for potential shifts toward more integrated, smart-enabled distribution board gear and energy management hardware.
