KRT Media

What KRT Media does

KRT Media AG is a privately held, full-service advertising and creative production agency headquartered in Kriens, Lucerne, Switzerland (Arsenalstrasse 24). It organizes its offering into eight core service areas: Design (branding and corporate design), Foto & Video (product, portrait, advertising, drone, and 360-degree photography plus video production), Bildbearbeitung (image editing, high-end retouching, compositing, and digitization), Web & Online Marketing (web development, e-commerce, SEO/GEO, Google Ads/SEA, email marketing, web analytics, and Account Based Marketing), Web Applikationen (VR, WebAR, CGI/3D, and digital magazines/e-books), Mediabank/MAM (proprietary media asset management platform at mediabank.ch), Fine-Art (art reproduction and giclée printing), and Print/Druckerei (prepress, proof, offset, digital, large-format, envelope, lenticular, and art printing). Notable proprietary technology includes a 3D Isometrie tool for browser-based real-estate visualization, ISO 3664:2009-certified LED softproof workflows, and AI-assisted creative production spanning generative AI image and video creation, AI-based image optimization, and virtual model technology.

The business model is professional services plus print production. Engagements are predominantly project-based and quoted on a net-price-plus basis, billed on time and materials unless explicitly fixed-price; print products are unit-priced (e.g., proof services CHF 60-190 by format) on a pay-as-you-go basis; AI-based creative is positioned as a billable service line. Distribution is direct via account managers for enterprise and mid-market clients, supplemented by an e-commerce storefront (onlineprint.ch) for consumer/SMB print and an emerging ABM-led B2B demand-gen motion. Customer concentration spans Swiss enterprises across luxury (Gübelin, Ochs und Junior, Kurz 1948, Hess Uhren, Schuler Weine), sports (Champions Hockey League, FC Luzern, Migros Sportpark, Zirkus Knie), insurance (CSS), retail (Boettcher AG), and broader B2B/consulting verticals.

As of April 1, 2026, KRT Media has been integrated into Brunner Medien AG, one of the leading regional media companies in the Lucerne area; the KRT Media AG brand and service portfolio are retained, and the integration is positioned as a capability and market-reach expansion. The company has no public listing, no disclosed venture investment, and no disclosed headcount or revenue figures; operating geography is restricted to Switzerland.
