Technological expertise since 1993

ADITECH Flüssigkristallanzeigen GmbH was founded in 1993 by Dr Gernot Schauer and Hermann Holz. Both founders already had seven years of joint experience in the LCD industry and used their expertise to lay the foundations for the company's successful development. Just one year after its foundation, ADITECH was firmly established on the market.

Baden-Württemberg - The land of Thinkers, inventors and inventors

The company’s headquarters are located in Heidenheim an der Brenz – a town with a population of around 50,000 in eastern Baden-Württemberg, on the edge of the Swabian Alb and directly on the A7 motorway (Ulm–Würzburg). After five years at the Heidenheim Technology and Start-up Centre, ADITECH moved into its own premises in the Weststadt district in 1998. Today, across a production area of 1,200 m², around 30 employees develop and manufacture bespoke solutions for numerous well-known clients from across Europe. For many years, ADITECH has been one of the leading manufacturers of display technologies for passenger and transport information systems.

Generational change and corporate management

In August 2021, the company was handed over to two children of co-founder Hermann Holz, successfully passing it on to the next generation.

  • Dörte Holz (Dipl.-Kff.) has been with the company since 2012. After holding positions in sales and product management, she joined the management team in 2018. Today, she is responsible for the entire commercial area and sales.
  • Heiko Holz (Dipl.-Ing.) joined the team in 2021 and took over the development department. Since taking over the company, he has also been in charge of production, quality assurance and IT.
  • Hermann Holz (Dipl. Wirtsch.-Ing.) will remain with the company as a consultant and authorised signatory and will support the new management with his many years of industry expertise.

Technology change and new product lines

This generational shift is accompanied by a significant technological transition: in 2024, traditional LCD technology was phased out due to declining demand and challenges with raw materials. Individual model ranges will continue to be produced for service and spare parts purposes. At the same time, ADITECH is actively driving forward the development of new technologies:

  • Broad portfolio of modern TFT displays
  • Since 2022 Development and production of customised LED displays, especially for passenger, traffic and city information systems
  • Innovative hardware and software solutions that support the technology transition from LCD to LED

ADITECH thus remains a reliable partner for innovative display technologies - today and in the future.
