Investment in property: a hall on 5,200 m² of land is purchased. Here, the increased demands of our time are taken into account on a 1,600 m² production area.

It quickly turns out that the LiDi philosophy PPQI (inexpensive, punctual, high quality and innovative) is a complete success and the production areas are too small. LiDi is moving to 1,000 m² of hall space within the industrial area.

The lighting technology service becomes "LiDi Reflektoren GmbH".

A hall in Radevormwald is rented. Small series are now manufactured and developed on 600 m² using punching, folding and bending machines.
