In setting the tone for a great guest dining experience, one of the easiest and nearly subliminal ways to positively impact that experience is to have table lighting that reinforces your restaurant brand message. Hollowick has been providing the hospitality industry great table lighting for over 40 years and has a complete line of flameless candles
In 1997, with the introduction of the Norex SafeLite®, an innovative rechargeable LED candle produced in the USA, Norex brought to the hospitality and cruise line industries a brand new product category. Using the newest LED technology, the Norex SafeLite® made it possible to replicate the beautiful, bright and natural flicker of live flame candlelight without striking a match. The Norex SafeLite® LED candle made it possible to provide the relaxing, romantic, "this moment is special" ambience of candlelight in a clean, safe, eco-friendly and economical way.
In 2012 , Norex introduced Safelite-WP, a powerful, longlasting, water submersible rechargable LED candle leading the way in the LED candle market. With many municipalities enforcing laws against the use of open flames outside the kitchen, Norex is able to provide unmatched tabletop ambiance.

Hollowick is a company that sometimes keeps a quiet profile but continues to launch new creative products and service its customers well. But, come to think of it....isn't that what it's all about.
The restaurant, the dining experience or the lighting, can often characterize a romantic dinner. Just having a candle can change the mood or atmosphere of a formal dinner to a romantic evening with a significant other. The tabletop has evolved over time and so has the lighting that illuminates it. Now, not only can the tabletop include the traditional warming tea candle; but instead an efficient, convenient LED substitute. Although a L.E.D. candle can never replace a traditional wax candle, it can offer several benefits; including but not limited to: a zero-risk of fire, cost-effectiveness, timer options and lasts between 6-8 months. Candlelamp Sterno is a leadership brand in the tabletop lighting industry. Candlelamp is a corporate giant that has been operating for over 30 years and in line with their motto they have continually been following their pledge: “to provide passion, trust and innovation to the tabletop lighting industry”.
Candle Impressions is following a similar lead, by creating L.E.D. candles that: “They look, feel and flicker just like the real thing”. L.E.D. candles are slowly taking over the tabletop lighting market.
The debate rages on about which candle to use, but what we can all agree on is that no matter what your flame is, there is a tabletop lighting manufacturer there for you. - Danny Grewal During a special presentation at last month's NAFEM Show in Orlando, Hollowick announced a couple of special company awards. First, i-Sell Solutions Inc., based in Portland, OR, was named the HOLLOWICK REPRESENTATIVES OF THE YEAR. Principals Michael Hartman & Antoinette D'Ambrosio along with Sales Representative Jennifer Lauritzen were on hand to accept this award on the behalf of their company. The Hollowick Rep of the Year is awarded to the Hollowick Representative Organization for superior sales performance and support of Hollowick throughout the previous year. "i-Sell Solutions was able to significantly grow Hollowick sales last year across all our product categories by focusing on new business and growing existing business with our key strategic partners in their area. Those efforts, along with their ongoing everyday support of our line made this group the ideal choice for this year's Rep of the Year.", said Paul Kuzina, Hollowick's Director of Marketing. Hollowick also announced the induction of Alan Squier and Bill Squier from Dining Essentials Inc. (A Squier Company), based in Rockville, MD, into HOLLOWICK's HALL OF FLAME. The announcement was also made during another special presentation at the NAFEM Show. "The Hall of Flame is the highest level of recognition Hollowick gives. It is only awarded to select individuals within the Hollowick Community that we feel have made a significant contribution to the long-term success of our company. Our latest induction is not one person, but a pair of remarkable individuals. Each has made their own unique contribution to Hollowick's success, however we believe it is their collaborative efforts that are truly worthy of our highest honor. Our relationship with them goes back almost 30 years and their dedication, integrity and professionalism is recognized throughout the industry." said Kuzina.
