DEXLIT is a highly innovative young startup that offers the world´s first individualised lighting solutions for boats and yachts. Everything is made in Germany by hand, with full dedication to our customers’ needs, to ensure that any imagination is brought to shine perfectly.

In September 2025, we had the honour of meeting Espen Øino at the METS Trade Fair and talking to him about lighting on board yachts. We share the belief that lighting plays an essential role on ships, but that it’s often neglected. At METS, Espen presented a beautiful illuminated fender, and after his talk we had the chance to get in contact with him and show him our solution for lighting on board, DEXLIT. 

But what is DEXLIT? Philip didn’t want to just install another lamp on board; he wanted to create a whole new feeling. Standing in light and surrounded by light, completely immersed, so to speak, he and his cousin Christopher invented illuminated flooring for maritime use. Boat owners can create a completely new atmosphere according to their needs, and situation. Coloured running lights that dance to the beat of the music? No problem. A balmy summer evening, the bathing platform reflecting the sunset and illuminating the night in warm white? All achievable with a tap on your cell phone. And when your deck, paired with our sensor technology, lights up where you walk, it becomes almost magical. 

Take a look at our website and Instagram profile, and let our ideas for onboard lighting inspire you for your own boat.
