Mattig-schauer Gmbh

What Mattig-schauer Gmbh does

Mattig-Schauer GmbH is an Austrian private limited company headquartered in Vienna (Gorskistraße 19, 1230 Wien) that designs, manufactures and services time synchronization, public-address, voice-alarm and structured network-cabling systems for enterprise and public-sector customers. Its heritage traces to the Schauer clock-production business founded in 1839 and the 2000 merger of Mattig GmbH with Schauer Time & Communication Systems GmbH; it is led by Managing Director Ing. Franz Ambros, MBA. The portfolio is organized around four product lines: clocks and clock systems (master clocks, analogue, digital, wireless 869 MHz, NTP, self-adjusting), network technology (unshielded, shielded and fiber structured cabling), voice alarm / speech evacuation (the CESAA next-generation SAA system with integrated Text-to-Speech and WeNet loop topology), and communication systems (IP audio, intercom, emergency call and accessibility-compliant emergency call). Core technology is built on DCF-77, GPS and NTP time references, PoE/IP networking, and proprietary serial time-code protocols that drive self-calibrating slave clocks and class-D amplification in voice-alarm amplifiers.

The firm is privately held with no parent, no public ticker, no disclosed funding rounds and no revenue disclosure. Revenue is generated through two streams: sale of proprietary hardware (master clocks, slave clocks, NTP clocks, voice-alarm cabinets, scoreboards, emergency-call terminals, cabling components) and professional services (project planning, system design, installation and consulting, including customer-specific special designs). Pricing is opaque; quotes are provided on a project basis via a direct sales team organized by product division (network technology, clocks & clock systems, communication & railway systems).

Customer segments are vertical in orientation. Primary verticals are education, healthcare and public transport (railways, airports), with secondary presence in public buildings, hospitality, sports facilities and industrial customers. Distribution is direct in Austria and channeled via wholly-owned subsidiaries in Hungary (Schauer Hungaria kft., Budapest), Germany (Magronic GmbH, Munich; WENZEL Elektronik GmbH, Pinneberg) and partner businesses (Weber Elektroanlagen, Neumann Elektronik, innovaphone). The company holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications and markets itself on Austrian manufacturing, regulatory compliance and project-engineering capability rather than on a software or AI-led proposition.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• CommScope: Global incumbent in structured cabling (Systimax, TE) and network infrastructure, currently a premium partner of Mattig-Schauer; a potential competitor if Mattig-Schauer expands cabling assembly beyond distribution into its own branded solutions.
• TOA Corporation: Established Asian-headquartered supplier of voice alarm, public address, and intercom systems with strong European presence; overlaps directly with CESAA and BTIP-ELA IP audio offerings.
• Biamp Systems (Vocia / Tesira): US professional AV/voice-evacuation vendor whose Vocia platform competes in the same voice-alarm and networked PA category as Mattig-Schauer's CESAA and BTIP-ELA systems across commercial and public-sector deployments.
• Bosch Security Systems (PRAESENSA): Global incumbent offering the PRAESENSA IP-based voice alarm and public address system—direct competition to CESAA in public-building voice evacuation tenders, with far greater R&D and integrator reach.
• Honeywell (NOTIFIER / E3 Series): Major fire safety and voice evacuation incumbent with NOTIFIER and E3 product lines sold through global integrator channels—competes with Mattig-Schauer in voice alarm for schools, hospitals, and transport hubs.

Direct peers

• Meinberg Funkuhren GmbH & Co. KG: German specialist in NTP and PTP/IEEE 1588 time servers, grandmaster clocks, and frequency synchronization for telecom, finance, and power utilities. Directly competes with Mattig-Schauer's master clock and time server product lines.
• Reichle & De-Massari (R&M): Swiss manufacturer of structured copper and fiber cabling systems; an existing premium partner of Mattig-Schauer for network technology products, making it both an ally and a competitor in building cabling bids.
• Valcom: Manufacturer of IP-based clock, intercom, paging, and emergency communication systems for education, healthcare, and government—overlaps with Mattig-Schauer's combined clock + IP audio + accessible emergency call offerings.
• American Time: US-based maker of wired and wireless synchronized clock systems, master clocks, and tone signal devices, serving schools, healthcare, and industry—directly comparable to Mattig-Schauer's clock/clock system portfolio.
• Sapling (Pyramid Technology Group): US manufacturer of master clocks, synchronized clock systems, and IP-based time distribution for schools, hospitals, and industry—closest functional analog to Mattig-Schauer's Schauer clock division.
