ZKW and the pathway to a vision
ZKW shapes the look and character of motor vehicles worldwide.
On closer inspection, it becomes clear: ZKW and its headlights shape the automotive industry.
ZKW shapes the look and character of vehicles across the world. With our discoveries and inventions, ZKW makes vehicles more desirable, more unique, safer, and more energy efficient. We continue this work today.
The fast-paced and quickly changing automotive industry poses new challenges for the company, as does Industry 4.0 and autonomous driving technologies associated with it. Headlights need to become even more safe and efficient, and need to function perfectly in street traffic without being controlled by the driver. Today, mobility doesn’t just mean driving your car, it also means letting your car drive you.
ZKW continues to emphasize the safety aspects of traffic and lighting in our product developments. The company also has an international focus. ZKW has transformed from a traditional headlight manufacturer from Austria into a global player creating lighting concepts at twelve locations that stretch from Mexico to China.

What the ZKW Group has in common with nocturnal animals – Nocturnal animals can get by even with very little light. People, on the other hand, need modern lighting systems to move securely through the darkness. Sounds like a job for ZKW.
Cooperation at twelve locations
Global player from Austria: ZKW focuses on international networking. Around 12,000 kilometers. That’s how far it is from Silao in Mexico to Dalian in China. But the distance doesn’t separate the ZKW Group locations in those cities. The lighting manufacturer focuses on international networking and close cooperation between its twelve locations in eight countries. That’s how ZKW developed itself into a global player from Austria.
