In 1941, entrepreneur and inventor Villum Kann Rasmussen came up with an idea to transform dark attics into liveable spaces full of daylight and fresh air.
His first roof window (skylight) was patented in 1942. He came up with a distinctive name that highlights the key benefits of his solution: ‘VE’, short for ventilation and ‘LUX’, latin for light – VELUX.
We started this program in 2007, and since then, we have partnered with over 180 Skylight Specialists across the country. Many of these installers have been with us since day one, helping to build and grow this elite group.
"Having strong backing from VELUX gave us confidence and enabled us to focus on our business, knowing we sell high quality, reliable, and useful products"

In the 2019 biennial report conducted by The Farnsworth Group for Remodeling Magazine, professional remodeling contractors were polled on which brands of products they were most familiar with, which brands are used most often, and which ones they perceive to be the highest quality.
VELUX ranked #1 in all three categories, and this can be seen in other brand use studies across the board in the past ten years.
