Lamp Express USA Inc.

Manufacturers & Distributors of High-Performance UV & IR Lighting Solutions

Lamp Express USA Inc. was founded in 1990 by Gerhard Theimer, the son of Siegfried Theimer, who established our family’s original production headquarters in Germany. Built on decades of German engineering expertise, Lamp Express USA was created to serve as the sole North American distributor for our family’s premium UV and IR lighting products.

From day one, our mission has been to deliver the same level of precision, quality, and reliability established by our German roots—now with local support, faster delivery, and direct service to customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico, and beyond.

A Family Legacy, Three Generations Strong

The Lamp Express story is one of family tradition and technical excellence. From Siegfried’s pioneering work in UV and IR lamp manufacturing in Germany, to Gerhard’s vision of establishing Lamp Express USA in 1990, the company has always been driven by innovation and service.

Today, Lamp Express remains proudly family-owned and operated, now transitioning into its third generation of leadership. This continuity ensures that we uphold the same values we were founded on—uncompromising quality, rigorous testing, and long-term customer partnerships. For more than three decades, Lamp Express USA has proudly supplied industries throughout North America with premium UV and IR lighting solutions, continuously expanding our product portfolio to meet evolving market demands.

What Sets Us Apart

Unlike many competitors, Lamp Express can source virtually any UV or IR lamp brand or model—giving customers maximum flexibility and peace of mind. And with over 30 years of hands-on experience in North America (backed by decades of German engineering expertise), we confidently stand behind every product we supply.

Our unique history also sets us apart: Lamp Express is the only lamp company originally founded as a partner of a UV system OEM. This insider knowledge of system design has allowed us to engineer lamps for our partners and many other OEMs, fueling steady growth in aftermarket sales, repeat business, and customer trust.

Addressing the “OEM Warranty & Service Agreement” Question

One of the most common concerns for UV and IR system owners is the OEM warranty or service agreement requirement. Manufacturers often claim that using non-OEM lamps will void warranties or affect performance. This doesn’t stop at warranties—many OEMs also structure current and even expired service agreements to lock customers into buying spare parts exclusively through them at inflated prices.

At Lamp Express USA, we believe our customers deserve freedom and confidence. After decades of experience designing and supplying UV and IR lamps, we are certain that our products meet or exceed OEM specifications. To date, there have been no known cases of Lamp Express lamps causing equipment damage or performance issues.

By choosing Lamp Express, customers avoid restrictive warranty clauses and gain:

• Equal or superior performance compared to OEM lamps

• Lower costs with no hidden markups

• Reliable quality backed by family-run expertise

• Direct technical support from a team that understands OEM systems inside and out

Our Commitment to You

From printing and packaging to automotive, medical, and industrial applications, Lamp Express continues to deliver the lighting solutions that keep the world’s most demanding systems running. We look forward to building new partnerships and supporting businesses with the same dedication that has defined our family legacy for three generations.
