History

MediaLight, the core brand distributed by MediaLight Canada, was founded in 2012 by Scenic Labs to address the lack of accurate bias lighting in the market. The company developed the MediaLight Bias Lighting System, including models like Mk2 and Pro, certified for professional-grade color accuracy. MediaLight Canada serves as the dedicated Canadian outlet for these products.¹³⁴
