PETERS INDU-PRODUKT

What PETERS INDU-PRODUKT does

Peters Indu-Produkt GmbH is a privately held German industrial component manufacturer founded in 1974 in Wesel, Germany, specializing in electrical connectivity and automation components. The company organizes its offering across four product verticals — Industrial (connectors with/without circuits, base connectors, pressure switches/pressure transmitters including ATEX-certified versions, valve timers Type A/B, Reed and GMR proximity sensors, relay modules), Automotive (TYCO Superseal, Deutsch DT, TYCO Junior Power Timer, Delphi Metri-Pack, and ST3-DIN9680 connectors), Automation (M8 and M12 molded and field-attachable connectors, plus M8/M12 actuator/sensor boxes), and Marine (marine-grade connectors and components). Its underlying technology is electromechanical rather than software-driven, with differentiators rooted in ATEX certification for hazardous environments, GMR-based proximity sensing, and custom tailored engineering from initial concept to finished product.

The business operates a hardware product sales model, selling through a global network of distributors and partners across industrial, automotive, automation, and marine end-markets. Production is conducted at three company-owned facilities in Wesel (Germany), Wroclaw (Poland), and Shanghai (China), enabling a tiered cost structure and proximity to key European and Asian OEM customers. Customer acquisition is supported by a corporate website with downloadable product catalogs (last refreshed in 2019), a LinkedIn page with 3,100+ followers, and YouTube/Instagram channels; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company is led by Managing Directors Jens Peters and Jörg Angenlahr, with no disclosed parent company, outside investment, or public shareholders, and serves as a privately operated Mittelstand supplier in the global connector and industrial sensor market.
