Company history and milestones
1995
Unternehmensgeschichte
Christine und Markus O. Krapf gründeten 1995 in CH-8363 Bichelsee die Einzelunternehmung INTECH-KRAPF. Neben dem technischen Handel mit herkömmlichen Produkten für die industrielle Automation hat sich das Unternehmen immer stärker Richtung Vertrieb von Kommunikations-, Sicherheits- & Industrietechnik entwickelt. INTECH-KRAPF hat sich erfolgreich mit dem Vertrieb von Eigen- und Fremdprodukten für die Störmelde-, Fernwirk-, Steuerungs- und Datenkommunikationstechnik auseinandergesetzt.
1998
INTECH-KRAPF won the tender for the renewal of the switch heating for SBB. With the TBOX, the control for the switch heating for SBB could be delivered and installed throughout Switzerland.

1999
The existing infrastructure in Bichelsee became too small. Larger premises were found and occupied in CH-8362 Balterswil. There was sufficient space for offices, storage, and a technical laboratory. Due to the new spatial and personnel opportunities, INTECH-KRAPF also became active internationally in special customer projects.

2000
INTECH-KRAPF was involved in the ticketing project for Autostadt, D-Wolfsburg. Autostadt chose our system due to our flexibility, and we were able to deliver the complete ticketing made by INTECH to Wolfsburg.

2001
The company SCHLAEFLI AG is joining the company INTECH. Schlaefli AG is a Swiss company with international operations. For over 40 years, security, access, and communication systems as well as cash register equipment and counter systems have been manufactured and distributed. In many countries, public transport companies, banks, administrations, industrial, sports, and entertainment facilities are the deployment sites for Schlaefli products. The highest quality and absolute reliability are the top priorities of the company's philosophy. Christine and Markus O. Krapf will take over the management of SCHLAEFLI AG. From this point on, all work will be carried out by employees of INTECH. Together with partner companies, Schlaefli plans, manufactures, and installs complete cash register systems, reception areas, and personnel and material locks, even with high security requirements.
The first Cash Corner is put into operation in Burgdorf. The external ATM was developed and produced in collaboration with the ATM manufacturers.
