What RF Technik does

RF Technik, spol. s r.o., is a privately held Czech wholesale and exclusive distributor of professional and hobby tools, headquartered in Prague 10 - Malešice and operating in the Czech and Slovak Republics. Founded in 1993 (with 1994 cited in some filings), the company holds exclusive distribution rights for four branded lines: PROXXON MICROMOT (precision micro tools for modelers, jewelers, opticians, and craftsmen, featuring 50+ machines engineered for quiet, vibration-free, prolonged operation), PROXXON INDUSTRIAL (professional hand tools forged from 31 CrV chromium-vanadium steel for industrial and automotive use), SKIL (professional and hobby electric and garden tools with Samsung battery cells and 3–5 year warranties), and XENOX (German precision micro tools for laboratories, dental practices, and optical work).

The business model is hardware distribution: RF Technik procures inventory from principals and sells through three channels — direct e-commerce (rf-technik.cz), a physical showroom in Prague, and a network of approximately 67 authorized dealers across all 14 Czech regions. Logistics are handled via PPL/GLS with 2-business-day delivery on in-stock items and a free-shipping threshold of 3,000 CZK. Revenue is not publicly disclosed. The customer base spans precision craftsmen, industrial and automotive professionals, healthcare and laboratory buyers, and hobbyist/DIY consumers, with no single end customer dominating volume.

The company is structured as a Czech limited liability company (spol. s r.o.) with 1–10 employees, no external investment, no parent company, and no disclosed acquisitions or M&A activity. Operations are stable and ongoing, with a warranty and post-warranty service function supported by a dedicated service technician. The competitive position rests on exclusive agency rights for premium heritage brands and three decades of distribution incumbency in a two-country market, rather than on proprietary technology or differentiated service offerings.
