history
In 1987 Peter Lepper founded TechniSat in Daun / Eifel to produce satellite products for end consumers. One year later, they moved into the offices in the newly built TechniPark in Daun, where the company's headquarters are still located today. In 2008 the eight-story TechniTurm was built as a further office building in the TechniPark.
In 1989 Astra started the Europe-wide distribution of the four German-language programs RTL , Sat.1 , ProSieben and Teleclub , which meant that there was strong demand for reception systems for the Astra satellite, from which TechniSat also benefited.
The first flat satellite antenna - the TechniSat SATENNE with an edge length of 38 centimeters - was introduced in 1990 to receive the satellite TV-Sat 2 and was recognized for both its reception and its features. In 1998 TechniSat presented the first digital receiver (DigiCom 1) and started producing television sets in Staßfurt . In the same year TechniSat signed a worldwide exclusive contract with the star designer Luigi Colani for his Colani television design.
In the course of the start of digital terrestrial television in Berlin and Brandenburg in 2002, TechniSat produced DVB-T receivers of the DigiPal 1 type. At the International Radio Exhibition (IFA) 2007 TechniSat presented the HDready LCD product line HD-Vision 32 with integrated multi-media Reception tuner as well as the multi-tennis in Berlin.
In 2011 the first TechniSat-ISIO-NetSeher - internet-capable digital televisions of the MultyVision ISIO series - were delivered. In 2013 the company expanded its range to include tablet PCs, and in 2014 energy-saving lamps from the TechniLux series were added. At the IFA 2014, TechniSat presents its first UHD television, smartphones and a greatly expanded DAB + product range.
On February 1, 2016, the company announced that it had sold 50 percent of the automotive division to the Chinese automotive supplier Joyson Electronics and its subsidiary Preh . From now on, this area would be run as "Preh TechniSat Car Connect GmbH" within the Joyson Group. The purchase price was 180 million euros.
Products
TechniSat claims to be one of the leading German manufacturers of consumer electronics products. The product range of the medium-sized company includes televisions, digital receivers, digital radios, smart home and other lifestyle electronic devices.
The Automotive division, which was sold in 2016, offered radio and navigation systems for international automobile manufacturers for over 15 years . In 2012, TechniSat received the Volkswagen Group Award 2012 as a supplier to the Volkswagen Group .
