Amglo Kemlite Laboratories, Inc.

Amglo Kemlite Laboratories, Inc., through its Xenon Division and doing business as Amglo, manufactures specialized lighting products including xenon flashlamps, halogen bulbs, HID and metal halide lamps, incandescent lamps, and LED lighting components for federal aviation and defense applications, operating as a prime contractor on full-and-open purchase orders and delivery orders with no SBA set-aside designations across nearly all of its recent federal work.

Amglo is a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Bensenville, Illinois, with primary NAICS concentration in electric lamp bulb and part manufacturing (176 awards) and other electrical equipment manufacturing, and corresponding PSC coding for electric lamps (238 awards). The vendor competes predominantly under full-and-open procurement, with only occasional total small business set-asides from the Federal Aviation Administration; the vast majority of its 289 prime awards over the past five years carry no set-aside designation. The company has maintained active SAM.gov registration since December 2001.

Customer concentration is extreme and FAA-dominant. The top customer by both award count and dollars is the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Headquarters, which accounts for 78 awards with $3.7 million in combined potential value. The FAA Franchise Acquisition Services division has issued 5 additional awards worth $1.5 million, and the FAA Aeronautical Center accounts for 30 awards valued at $863 thousand. Across all FAA divisions, the agency represents the preponderance of Amglo's federal business. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation division is the second-largest customer by award count (71 awards, $662 thousand), followed by DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (30 awards, $191 thousand) and DLA Troop Support Medical (35 awards, $11 thousand). The top five customers account for 84% of all awards and 90% of combined potential value, with FAA alone anchoring roughly half the dollar base.

Amglo holds multiple IDIQ contracts with the FAA. The vendor's primary single-award IDIQ with FAA Headquarters, valued at $1,139,385.75, is effective through March 31, 2026, and covers PAR-56 500-watt incandescent aviation service lamps and related specialized lighting products supporting the National Airspace System. A secondary small business set-aside IDIQ worth $432,300 also supports FAA delivery orders. Top IDIQs by task-order volume include Indefinite Delivery Contract DTFAAC14D00031 (15 task orders, $535 thousand) and Indefinite Delivery Contract DTFAAC06D00070 (7 task orders, $419 thousand), both FAA vehicles. Recent representative prime work includes a $412,706.25 firm fixed-price purchase order from FAA for National Airspace System assets awarded May 8, 2026; a $147,453.75 total small business set-aside purchase order from FAA Headquarters for NAS assets awarded November 24, 2023; and a $10,640 purchase order from DLA Aviation for incandescent lamps awarded September 28, 2022.

Activity has grown modestly year over year — 11 awards in 2022 to 16 in 2025, with 3 awards already recorded in 2026. Combined potential value across all 289 awards stands at $7.7 million, with 100% of that value obligated. Three awards (two FAA purchase orders and one DLA purchase order) completed or are completing in May through June 2026. Amglo operates exclusively as a prime contractor; the vendor carries no subcontract relationships in the source data. The capability footprint reflects a pure-play lighting manufacturer supplying fungible commodity products to government procurement systems — xenon flashtubes, aviation service lamps, incandescent bulbs, halogen surgical bulbs, and LED components — with delivery concentrated across small firm fixed-price purchase orders and delivery orders rather than larger integration or systems work.
