The History of ESL Vision
Long-time friends and entrepreneurs, Mike Gleeson and Jeff Provolt, were very curious about the possible uses and benefits of LED tape light. They began to explore LED technology and discovered the need for cost-effective ways to save energy and money. By learning about the unique needs of electricians, end-users, and engineers, they were able to solve common problems through practical design.
In 10 short years, ESL Vision has grown from a basement operation to multiple warehouses with on-site assembly to provide the quickest turnaround times available on customized products. Thru their focus and dedication, ESL Vision has quickly become an industry leader in customer service and product innovation.
