The brand remains active in the German lighting market.

Hellux was founded in 1891 amid the electrification of Germany. The expansion of electricity supply and the commercial production of carbon filament lamps in 1883 paved the way for the production of "electrical requisites." In its early years, the company specialized in the production of banker's and desk lamps. The first trademark registration of the lighting technology specialty factory is dated 13 November 1919 and describes the production portfolio as including "electric bulbs, lamps, switches, sockets, switch rosettes, lamp holders, lamp hoisting and suspension devices, arc lamp couplings, wall arms, lamp fittings, and ceiling lighting." Hellux was one of the exhibitors at the "Berlin im Licht" exhibition at the Märkisches Museum, which depicted the last century of Berlin street lighting. In 2016, as part of a corporate acquisition, Hellux was renamed Lunux. In 2020, Lunux was acquired by SBF Spezialleuchten AG of Leipzig and renamed Lunux Lighting GmbH.
