What TS-Aluminium-Profilsysteme does

TS-Aluminium-Profilsysteme GmbH & Co. KG is a privately-held German manufacturer of aluminum profile systems headquartered in Grossefehn, Lower Saxony, founded around 1978–1979. The company designs, produces, and distributes modular aluminum profiles and complete outdoor-structure systems — winter gardens (Wintergarten), summer gardens (Sommergarten), terrace coverings (Terrassenüberdachung), louvered roofs (Lamellendach), sliding glass roofs (Glas-Schiebe-Dach), and the entry-premium SunChill canopy — supplemented by add-on modules for lighting, shading, ventilation, heating, side elements, and privacy screening. Core technical differentiators include PU-foam-filled thermally insulated profiles, full RAL powder-coating capability, snow-load-rated louvered roof systems (up to 350 kg/m²), and proprietary modular profile architecture with profile lengths up to 7 meters.

The business is built on an exclusive B2B distribution model: TS-Aluminium sells exclusively through a certified Fachhandel (specialty trade) network across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands, with partners carrying the "Sonne am Haus" quality seal. The company layers vertically-integrated services on top of product sales — cut-to-length processing (Verarbeitungsservice Längenware), pre-configured kit assembly (Verarbeitungsservice Bausätze), powder coating (Oberflächenbeschichtung), and logistics — and supports partners with proprietary digital tools (WigaCad/KKP Logikal planning software, TS Webshop ordering platform, Mediadatenbank), training (TS Akademie), marketing services, and showroom planning (Ausstellungsplanung). End consumers are reached via the parallel "Sonne am Haus" consumer portal, which provides educational content, a 3D configurator, and a postal-code-based Fachpartner finder to route leads into the certified trade channel. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; revenue derives from one-time system sales plus processing/coating/logistics services. The company is led by Managing Director Rainer Trauernicht and Prokurist Gerhard Schütz, with no disclosed external ownership, no funding rounds, and no M&A activity.

• Solarlux: German specialist in glass extensions, winter gardens, and folding/sliding glass walls. Direct peer for TS Aluminium's winter garden, summer garden, and Glas-Schiebe-Dach offerings, with a similar premium positioning and trade-based distribution.
