About 

Inflexion invested in lighting maker CP Electronics in 2014 through its investment in Aspen Pumps, and worked with management for over two years before selling it to French industrial group Legrand in 2016. 

CP Electronics is the UK’s leading manufacturer of lighting controls systems. The business assists its blue-chip client base in reducing their operating costs and carbon footprint through an extensive range of innovative lighting control products. 

Value acceleration 

After the initial deal, we invested further to support new product development and the infrastructure of the business to ensure the business had a sustainable platform for its future growth and introduced skilled individuals to add depth to CP’s team. Under our ownership, revenue and profitability grew in excess of 40%, whilst staff numbers increased over 35%.
