Kindermann appoints Tukans as UK and Ireland distributor

The German manufacturer of AV presentation and conferencing solutions, Kindermann has appointed Tukans as its distributor for the UK and Ireland.

With a history going back to 1861, Kindermann has a strong claim to being the oldest professional AV manufacturer in the world. Their current product line up, however, is thoroughly modern featuring wireless presentation systems, interactive flat panel displays and connectivity solutions.

The company is currently undergoing a transformation that not includes rebranding and a renewed focus on international expansion.

Romano Cunsolo, head of international sales at Kindermann, said: “Our strength in our home market of Germany is built on innovative products and solutions backed by a team of experts. Customers in international markets will benefit greatly from our product offering, but this requires support from strong local partners that share the Kindermann ethos. With Tukans, we now have such a partner for two key European markets.”

Tukans sales director Simon Druce commented: “Our partnership with Kindermann now allows integrators in the UK and Ireland to offer their clients some of the best meeting room technologies currently available, The KLICK&SHOW range of wireless presentation and collaboration kits are already exciting our customers with the ease of use and high performance compared to competitor products.”

Stuart Thomson, managing director of Tukans, said: “Success in business is built on personal relationships and the Tukans and Kindermann teams appear to have a great bond already. A notable example is Simon (Druce) stepping in, without hesitation, as a last-minute replacement on the Kindermann team for the local Eibelstadt inter-company road running race while on a recent visit to Germany.”

Along with KLICK&SHOW, Kindermann’s range of up to 86-inch touch displays are shipping immediately from Tukans’ UK distribution centre.
