What Teltronic does
Teltronic AG is a privately-held Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) provider founded in 1978 and headquartered in Biberist, Switzerland. It offers full-lifecycle electronic assembly services — Supply Chain Management, Production, Testing, and Lifecycle Management — serving enterprise customers across six verticals: transportation, construction, medical technology, industrial and machinery, data transmission, and automotive. Operations were reorganised under employee ownership via a 2006–2007 Management Buy-out, with Jeff Wakeman as CEO, and now span a headquarters in Biberist (expanded by 900 sqm in 2015 with PV installation) plus a 200 sqm backup production site in Langendorf.
The company's core offering is a full-service EMS stack anchored by SMD placement (down to 01005 metric components with optional nitrogen soldering), THT assembly via wave soldering, complex PCB assembly with conformal coating, potting, sealing, and selective cleaning under ISO 14644-1 Class 5 cleanroom conditions. Quality assurance uses 3D-capable AOI/AXI inspection verified to IPC-A-610, in-house functional test adapter development, and End-of-Line (EOL) testing. Lifecycle services span prototyping, component procurement, industrialisation and New Product Introduction (NPI), series production, after-sales support, and proactive End-of-Life/obsolescence management — including regulatory support for CE marking, KBA type approval, and radio certification through accredited test bodies. Teltronic holds ongoing ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications and has co-developed proprietary 6th-generation radio remote controls (Funkfernschalter at 434MHz/868MHz) with a German automotive supplier.
Teltronic monetises primarily through custom project-based pricing for hardware assembly and related services, with revenue generated from manufacturing fees, component procurement margins, warehousing, and value-added lifecycle and regulatory services. Go-to-market is direct, sales-led, handled by a small in-house team led by a Key Account Manager and Head of Sales & Purchasing, targeting enterprise industrial clients primarily in Switzerland and Germany with relationship-driven multi-year engagements. The firm explicitly does not disclose pricing or revenue, but operates in the 11–50 employee bracket with no external institutional investors and is owned by its management team.
