> Il disent qu'il y a un nouveau proprio : Kirchheim unter Teck, 4th March 2013
> - Founded 83 years ago, the modelling company Graupner has a new owner now.
> The previous principal supplier of the successful R/C system HoTT, also
> supplying other R/C electronics and charging technology, has now taken over
> the company after preceding insolvendy. The official business transfer to the
> newly established company Graupner/SJ will be to 1st March 2013. The former
> company Graupner GmbH & Co.KG had several changes in the management in the
> past and although the company had full order books, they were forced to file
> for insolvency on 14th December 2012. The company’s location in
> Kirchheim/Teck and the continuation of the R/C system HoTT is granted. The
> product range will be continued in a limited extent. Job maintenance in
> Kirchheim/Teck could not be guaranteed and the product range will be adapted
> for being competitive. The production facility could not be continued at the
> site in Kirchheim. The Managing Director of the new company is Mister Ralf
> Helbing, in former times head of the development department. The technical
> management is taken over by Mister Hannes Runknagel, in former times head of
> Technics and service. Supervised by Ralf Helbing and in powerful cooperation
> with the new owner, the R/C system HoTT and a tremendous part of the
> electronic range have been developed and successfully introduced on the
> market. In this way a package filled with deep confidence, efficiency and
> plenty of ideas could be created. All these things will help feeding the new
> company Graupner/SJ. Although Graupner had to announce its insolvency in
> December 2012, many customers remained loyal to them and used to place orders
> anyway. Against this background, a lot of tenderer set a signal of a
> take-over bid towards the trustee, named Dr. Wolfgang Bilgery. Finally SJ
> Incorporated got the acceptance, because they can offer Graupner and their
> staff a promising prospect of the future. Graupner’s product range is large
> scaled and will now be limited to a competitive circumference, by offering
> individual and exclusive products. „The basic orientation of the company will
> be kept and assured in such a way that the customers can purchase high
> quality products from Graupner/SJ , how they used to do it in the past“, says
> Ralf Helbing. Especially with regard to the HoTT system, R/C electronics and
> the charging technology, the owner’s new combination offers an unsuspected
> variety of possibilities for the development of new products. The customer
> service for Graupner products, already sold, can be assured as well, in order
> to form an uncomplicated and carefree transition platform from Graupner to
> Graupner/SJ for all customers. A global extension of the distribution network
> in the UK, US, Japan and Australia will ensure an increasing turnover rate
> and a more efficient development and production of products. Most importance
> is attached to distribute the products to retailers and hobby shops,
> supported by offering direct sales in form of an online shop. But in the
> first instance no HoTT products will be offered in this online shop for the
> markets in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The structure of an own online
> shop must assure a wider and continuous availability of Graupner/SJ articles
> for all customers. The leadership team of the new company Graupner/SJ Ltd. is
> looking forward to this restart in a positive way; the starting position is
> very good. The company is able to work profitably, presenting high quality
> and innovative products in due form and size and at competitive prices. On
> this occasion synergies in procurement, production and distribution can be
> useful for a worldwide market. Moreover a protected financing and solid
> branch knowledge set up the basis to a successful and prosperous future.
> Specialized knowledge and production possibilities of the new company
> Graupner/SJ can be used as an additional option for products in the industry
> sector. The rapidly growing market of brushless special motors for future
> electric drive, quadrocopters and drones and their camera systems for civil
> purposes and their flight attitude stabilization as well as GPS controls will
> be developed. Such systems will frequently be used for a fast and economical
> damage analysis for insurance companies, e.g. for valuation of buildings.
> Come and see us, Graupner/SJ at the Rotor fair in Iffezheim on
> 09.03./10.03.2013 and at the Intermodellbau in Dortmund during the 10. –
> 14.04.2013.
