TIMOTEC

What TIMOTEC does

TIMOTEC is a privately held European group of companies that designs and manufactures customized cleanroom, isolator, decontamination, laminar flow, and process automation equipment for pharmaceutical, life sciences, healthcare, and high-precision industrial customers. The company was formally organized as the TIMOTEC Group on May 13, 2025 through a capital merger of three entities: TIMOTEC Reinraum- und Automatisierungstechnik GmbH (Germany, founded 2005), BLOCK Technology a.s. — now Timotec Reinraumtechnik a.s. (Czech Republic, isolator production since 2004), and FOR Clean, a.s. — now Timotec Reinraumsysteme a.s. (Slovakia, founded 1999). The group operates three manufacturing sites in Wiebelsheim (Germany), Vsetín and Olomouc (Czech Republic), and Piešťany (Slovakia), employing 51-100 people under a single controlling person.

Core technology spans modular cleanroom wall, ceiling, flooring, door, and HVAC components designed for room-within-room installation; isolators and RABS systems delivering containment up to OEB6 (<0.1 µg/m³) and EU GMP cleanliness classes A through D; the patented PURITER vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP) generator and associated VHP pass-through locks/boxes for sterilization; configurable laminar flow workstations, weighing cabinets, and material trolleys; precision-engineered AISI 304/316 stainless steel furniture and Köttermann laboratory furniture distribution; and process automation/robotization systems for optoelectronic and precision assembly. All VHP equipment uses FDA-approved 35% hydrogen peroxide with SIEMENS Simatic touchscreens communicating via PROFINET, Modbus TCP/IP, and Modbus RTU. Certifications include ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 (TÜV SÜD, valid through November 2027).

TIMOTEC generates revenue through hardware sales of custom-engineered equipment and turnkey cleanroom delivery, supplemented by professional services for service, maintenance, warranty, spare parts, and system upgrades across the Czech Republic, Germany, and Slovakia. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales with regional sales managers covering DACH, Nordics, Slovakia/Czech Republic, and furniture segments, supported by a network of more than 20 distributors across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East. Named enterprise customers include Merck, Synthon, Fresenius Kabi, Oncomed Manufacturing, Cayman Pharma, Bioveta, Masaryk University, DESY, and Hospital Hodonín. Pricing is project-based and not publicly disclosed; the company is exploring new growth vectors in ATMP and gene therapy manufacturing through state-funded R&D (Czech Technology Agency TREND Programme).
