New shareholders at MT-Messtechnik

Christian Dupier and Jens Kasopke

The traditional company MT-Messtechnik welcomes new shareholders and managing directors at the start of the new year. Jens Kasobke and Christian Dupier are taking over the exclusive representation of LIGHTHOUSE in the German-speaking region. The founders, Barbara Kerscher and Achim Kuhnert, said: "We are glad to have found successors who, like us, put their whole heart into the company and want to continue the story as successful medium-sized entrepreneurs." Jens Kasobke and Christian Dupier both come from the successful fire protection company Wagner Group GmbH and have worked together there in senior sales positions for many years. "We know each other, everyone knows the strengths of the other, and that's why we complement each other perfectly."

MT-Messtechnik has a particularly good reputation in the pharmaceutical and semiconductor industries. Everywhere there are cleanrooms and, accordingly, 100% reliable measurement and counting of particles in the air atmosphere are required, the company, based in Adelzhausen, Bavaria, uses devices from LIGHTHOUSE Worldwide Solutions. The American manufacturer is a globally operating technology brand in this segment. MT-Messtechnik already advises its customers with an expert team during needs analysis and technical requirements. Warehousing, repairs, and the starting point for mobile deployment teams are located in Marienheide, North Rhine-Westphalia, north of Gummersbach.

When asked about future prospects, Jens Kasobke, responsible for marketing, says: "First of all, it is important to continue the core business as successfully as Mr. Achim Kuhnert has practiced for many years. We want to show our customers that they can rely equally on the new shareholders and managing directors." Partner Christian Dupier currently sees opportunities in the field of air purification, which is a major topic due to COVID-19. "Because LIGHTHOUSE has acquired the company FILTR®, we can also exclusively offer these professional air purification devices to interested customers," says Dupier, pointing to the requirements in schools, gastronomy, and the hotel industry, and everywhere where many people gather and stay in a room.

The fact that the new shareholders are serious and, of course, want to bring personality into the business is demonstrated by MT-Messtechnik's new market appearance. "Although our primary goal is to continue the excellent quality with the experienced and dedicated team, we are opening perhaps the most important chapter of our lives for both of us," says Jens Kasobke. Therefore, they decided to make this chapter visible and commissioned the Munich-based marketing and communication agency BALLEYWASL to develop a new corporate image and a new website. "We know that brand and marketing can be essential success factors," says Kasobke.

While we, as distribution partners, only indirectly influence the devices and technology, the topic of corporate profile and customer experience is a component that we can shape and further develop. Digital touchpoints are just as important as the personal commitment of our great team.
