Valeo have received a 2025 Innovation Award in the Infrastructure and Vehicle Improvement category from Sécurité Routière—the French national road safety authority—for their innovative EvenLED technology used in the design of vehicle front and rear signalling systems.
Valeo Light Division CEO Maurizio Martinelli says, “We are extremely honoured by this award that recognizes our effort to develop technologies for more safety on the road. With its outstanding optical performance, Valeo’s EvenLED technology provides drivers with increasingly visible, safer solutions, while offering automakers limitless styling possibilities to create unique and recognizable light signatures”.
EvenLED uses proprietary Valeo technology that ensures high homogeneity and efficiency while meeting regulatory photometric standards. It can be used for all safety signals, both at the rear of the vehicle—tail, stop, and turn indicators—and at the front—daytime running lights, and position lights. With its highly uniform luminous appearance, it can be applied to light and heavy goods vehicles and complies with all international regulations.

The Road Safety Innovation Awards are organized annually by the French Authority for Road Safety and Traffic. They honour entrepreneurs, companies, and startups who leverage creativity to enhance road safety. The jury recognizes products or services that promote behavioural change or raise awareness about road safety, particularly those featuring new or groundbreaking aspects that are accessible to a broad audience.
