What ITS does

iTS GmbH (innovative Test- und Messsysteme), founded in 2002 and headquartered in Uedem, Germany, designs and manufactures environmental simulation and IP protection class testing systems used to validate product durability against dust and water ingress. The company builds a modular product family organized around a building-block (Baukastensystem) architecture that scales from compact 500x500x1000 mm dust test chambers (SK 500) up to walk-in SK-XL and SWK XL chambers sized 2.6m x 3.6m x 2m and larger, plus pressure water-jet chambers (DWT), immersion tanks and columns for IPX7, oscillating tube systems, IPX9/9K aggregates, and a full line of spray nozzles, turntables, water supply modules, and frames. Software is delivered via the iTS Companion App in BASIC (USB/CSV) and PRO (Ethernet/VNC) tiers. Test systems are engineered for compliance with international standards (IEC 60529, ISO 20653, EN 60068-2-18, JIS D203, NEMA 250, MIL STD 810G), European norms (EN 60068), automotive OEM specs (VW, BMW, Renault, LV 124, MBN LV124-2), and aerospace (RTCA DO-160G).

The company serves B2B customers across four primary verticals: electronics and electrical equipment manufacturers, automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers, battery and EV manufacturers (for which walk-in chambers and the IPX9K Achsenportal are explicitly designed), and independent testing laboratories and certification bodies. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time hardware sales of chambers, room solutions, and accessories, supplemented by software licensing for the Companion App. Distribution is direct, via a WooCommerce-based e-commerce shop for smaller chambers and components with transparent SKU-level pricing, and via consultation-led sales for walk-in systems, room solutions, and custom test configurations. Marketing reach combines the website shop, LinkedIn presence, and SEO-driven product search visibility. Geographic focus is the DACH region, with English-language materials supporting limited export activity.

iTS GmbH is a privately held German limited liability company with no disclosed parent, subsidiaries, funding rounds, ownership structure, named customers, patents, or financial figures. The company has 11-50 employees and operates from a single headquarters in Uedem, Industriestrasse 18.
