Hella Marine

Founded in 1925 by HELLA in Lippstadt, Germany, Hella marine is now headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand, a country with a rich maritime history, world class boat building and yacht racing success.

Combining this passion for the ocean with decades of LED product design expertise, Hella marine lamps are ‘Fit and Forget’ by design, offering complete piece of mind and enduring safety at sea.

Through ongoing R&D, innovative design and use of high quality materials Hella marine continues to set benchmarks for extremely reliable and highly efficient products.

Today Hella marine is a globally recognised and trusted brand with LED navigation and high performance lighting systems available in over 60 countries through the global HELLA network and specialist marine distributors.

At sea, power is often a scarce resource. Highly efficient and durable LED lighting has a substantial role to play in conserving energy and enhancing a vessel without sacrificing functionality or compromising safety.

Our vision is to provide world leading products that set benchmarks for quality, reliability, safety and energy efficiency while satisfying customer expectations for outstanding service and support. Hella marine ‘Fit and Forget’ LED lighting is firmly established as the solution of choice that meets long term reliability and economic considerations for astute owners and operators.

Combining efficient LED light sources with advanced optic technology, Hella marine LED products deliver more light output per watt than traditional bulb lamps and thus provide considerable power saving. Hella marine NaviLEDPRO navigation lamps use less than 10% of the power required to run a 25W incandescent bulb navigation lamp certified to the same visible distance.

Advanced Multivolt circuitry provides a uniform level of intensity for reliable and safe illumination across a range of DC inputs such 9-32V DC. MultivoltTM LED lamps can be connected to 12 or 24 volt systems without modification, providing full light performance and automatic compensation for low battery voltages and voltage drop over long cables and connections. Hella marine MultivoltTM LED lamps are also reverse polarity and spike protected for enhanced durability even under severe voltage fluctuations.

Ultra long service life Hella marine LED technology has no filaments to break, thus making the LED lamps extremely shock and vibration resistant for reliable illumination and safety. Our engineering team has developed a unique range of highly demanding tests to lift product reliability to new standards.

Each Hella marine LED lamp is a completely sealed opto-electronic device. Proven design, precision engineering, and the use of high impact acrylic materials ensures superior resistance to water, impact, UV and general wear and tear.

Advanced LED navigation lamp optics deliver optimal horizontal and vertical light distribution according to international standards. They provide enhanced visibility compared to bulb navigation lamps. Cut-off angles are ultra precise, clearly indicating a vessel's movement and heading.

All Hella marine LED products are electronic devices. Their electrical circuits contain components that suppress possible interference, both emission as well as susceptibility to emissions, to the limits prescribed in international standards.

All Hella marine LED Navigation lamps feature extra thick lenses - providing a long term lighting solution and environmentally friendly choice.
