About calex.eu

Written by the company

Wij zijn Calex

Het lijkt zo eenvoudig. Wanneer je licht nodig hebt, druk je op een schakelaar en gaat de lamp aan. Maar iedereen weet dat licht veel meer is dan alleen zichtbaarheid. Licht bepaalt hoe een ruimte aanvoelt, hoe comfortabel je je voelt en hoe je een moment beleeft. Fel licht kan energie geven, maar ook vermoeiend zijn. Zacht licht kan ontspannend werken, maar is niet altijd geschikt om bij te werken. De juiste balans maakt het verschil.

Bij Calex begrijpen we die balans als geen ander. Wij weten dat licht invloed heeft op sfeer, focus en welzijn. Daarom helpen we je om licht bewust in te zetten. Of het nu gaat om een ontspannen avond op de bank, een gezellig diner met vrienden of een productieve werkdag thuis. Met de juiste verlichting voelt elke ruimte precies goed aan.

Calex is een creatief en toegankelijk merk met oplossingen voor ieder moment en elke ruimte. Van decoratieve verlichting die karakter en warmte toevoegt aan je interieur, tot functionele lampen die gewoon doen wat ze moeten doen. Of je nu één lamp vervangt in de badkamer of je hele woning opnieuw wilt inrichten met licht. Bij Calex vind je verlichting die past bij jouw stijl en behoeften.

Onze passie voor licht en sfeer gaat terug tot 1970. Al meer dan vijftig jaar ontwikkelen en leveren wij verlichting waarin design, kwaliteit en gebruiksgemak samenkomen. Door de jaren heen zijn we meegegroeid met nieuwe woontrends, technologische ontwikkelingen en veranderende woonwensen. Wat altijd is gebleven, is onze overtuiging dat goed licht bijdraagt aan een prettiger leven.

Vandaag de dag werken we elke dag aan slimme, innovatieve en duurzame verlichtingsoplossingen. We combineren modern design met betrouwbare technologie en energiezuinige oplossingen. Daarbij houden we rekening met eenvoud, zodat onze producten voor iedereen gemakkelijk te gebruiken zijn. Slimme verlichting moet immers niet ingewikkeld zijn, maar juist bijdragen aan comfort en gemak.

Makers van ambiance

Dag in, dag uit zijn wij bezig met het creëren van ambiance. Niet alleen door mooie producten te ontwerpen, maar door na te denken over hoe mensen wonen, leven en werken. Wij geloven dat licht een verlengstuk is van je interieur en je levensstijl. Met de juiste verlichting kun je een ruimte groter laten lijken, warmer laten aanvoelen of juist rust brengen.

Daarom ontwikkelen wij oplossingen die verder gaan dan alleen verlichting. Onze producten ondersteunen een slimmere, comfortabelere manier van leven. Van sfeervolle filamentlampen tot slimme lichtoplossingen die zich aanpassen aan jouw dagritme. Altijd met oog voor detail, kwaliteit en gebruiksvriendelijkheid.

Bij Calex staat sfeer centraal, maar nooit zonder functionaliteit uit het oog te verliezen. We geloven dat goede verlichting niet opvalt doordat ze aanwezig is, maar juist doordat ze perfect past bij het moment.

Calex: jouw specialist in licht en sfeer

Of je nu op zoek bent naar inspiratie, een praktische oplossing of verlichting die echt iets toevoegt aan je interieur. Calex staat voor licht dat werkt, licht dat leeft en licht dat sfeer creëert. Al sinds 1970.

Jij staat centraal

Ads in the app

Since a few weeks ads appear in the app. This was never a thing. I already paid for the product, i do NOT want to be subjected to ads. If Calex does not stop putting ads in the app i will switch to another brand.

I’ve been using Calex bulbs and light bars for a while now and they work great. The quality is very good, the lighting looks amazing, and the app integration is simple and reliable. My only disappointment is that they unfortunately don’t seem to have warehouses in the UK, so orders have to be shipped from the Netherlands, which means waiting a few extra days for delivery. Other than that, a very good brand overall.

Their multi socket plugs work well and I've had them for 3 years.

Their single socket plugs and LED smart lights all pack up just after 12 months. I'll be moving to a different brand as I just can't cover the cost of replacing them so often.

Calex support

Hello there!

I would like to share my very positive experience with the Calex support team.

The store where I originally purchased the light bulbs unfortunately went bankrupt, which meant that all warranties were no longer valid. However, Calex support stepped in and provided outstanding assistance! They handled my case quickly, professionally, and without hesitation. Within a very short time, they arranged and delivered a replacement for me. I truly appreciate their customer-oriented approach and willingness to help, even in a complicated situation. Excellent service!

Having ordered a number of calex

Having ordered a number of calex. eu smart, home devices, the products I received from them have generally been nice: The LED lights and smart plugs have a good design aesthetically, are very simple to set up, and are totally compatible with both Alexa and the Calex Smart app.

The delivery was quick and the packaging was very sturdy. Also, the navigation of the website was so easy and very clear that the whole process from browsing to getting the product was very straightforward.

However, the app is somewhat slow and not very intuitive, and there were hardly any instructions included with some items, so initially, the setup was quite confusing. The customer service team did respond after we had to wait a few days, but the reply itself was very generic.

Besides that, after a short duration, one of the devices gave up, and the warranty procedure seemed a bit lengthy to me. All in all, the quality of the product is okay, but I am more disappointed with the software and the service, so my rating is only three stars.

I bought two 5M Led Smart light strips…

I bought two 5M Led Smart light strips and installed them following all guidelines and installation videos. The lights lasted under an hour until we started getting complications such as random turning off/on, flickering, lightly blinking of lights or not turning on at all in some instances. An electrician was called and we thought it may be an error with the infrared box due to its behaviour. I ordered a further LED light strip to test this theory and the lights worked instantly. Upon installing the lights completely the internal circuit foil then ripped on both lights causing them to not work at all now. I have emailed all my concerns and my upset with the product quality and Calex have refused to do anything about it despite being under warranty and even within the 30 day money back guarantee.
These products are expensive and you get cheap poor quality products. Very disappointed with Calex and won’t be using them again.

Don’t bother

Had a problem with an 18 month old plug from Calex. Admittedly out of warranty from the retailer. But the plug was hardly used. I contacted their customer service and after sending the video they requested, as soon as they were aware that it was 18 months old their support stopped. Not interested. Wouldn’t recommend, go for a manufacturer who actually has faith in their products and provides true support.

Shocking Customer service.

Ive used a few calex lamps over the years. We've just purchased 2 expensive lamps at £56. One lasted a couple of hours before flickering and packing up.
Contacted Calex customer services who are embarrassing slow. Its taken a week to get 3 messages back, we are currently at the stage of what is your lamp switched by? It takes days to get a response. Im an Electrician by trade, my email gives this away. I know what im talking about.
Slow shoddy service, do yourself a favour and buy from Amazon so you can return the lamp without all this poor service from Calex

LED strip lights come with an adhesive backing. The adhesive packing is useless. I don’t know whether mine was old stock and had dried out but whatever I do it keeps falling off the wall. I need to return it. Don’t buy this product.
