35 years of company history

We have been working successfully with many manufacturing companies from a wide range of sectors for over 35 years.

As your exclusive partner for light barriers, light grids and sensors, we supply companies in Austria and neighbouring countries and use these high-quality industrial light barriers wherever extreme demands are placed on the sensors.

The Danish manufacturer TelcoSensors (founded in 1975), now in its second generation, is recognised worldwide as a modern, innovative and international sensor manufacturer by the owner's two sons.

Takeover of Switzerland

In 2015, the Swiss representative GEHAG of TelcoSensors decided to relinquish its exclusive sales rights for Telco sensors in Switzerland. We decided to include this sales territory in our existing territories and have been responsible for Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia and Switzerland since this year. Mr Beat Schweizer, our sales representative in Switzerland, is responsible for this sales territory.

Relocation

In 2011, Mr Kölbl bought and renovated the business premises in 2100 Korneuburg, Viktor Kaplan Straße 3, changed the company name to „TS Telco Sensors Austria GmbH“ and thus achieved a broad basis for all further business expansions. The 25 years of hard work should have a positive impact on the company's success in the future.

After three years of basic development work and many customer visits throughout Austria, the new company and private building was constructed in 1990 near the previous office. The permanent commitment of Mr Kölbl, his wife Ingrid Kölbl and two employees quickly paid off and the company grew rapidly. The move to the new company building in 1990 supported the expansion of the company. During this time, patents and brand names were successfully placed.
1986

Company foundation

On 2 May 1986, Mr Gerald Ernst Kölbl founded a sole proprietorship for the wholesale of electronic products and sensors - at that time still under the name „Industriebedarf Kölbl“. He set up the office in his maisonette flat, while the Telco warehouse was located in a 40 m2 basement in Vienna 21.
