TKH Group

Company Description

TKH Group is a technology company developing smart systems for industrial automation, communications infrastructure, and security. The company's technologies help factories run more efficiently, enable high-speed data networks, and keep people and assets safe through advanced camera and sensor systems. TKH operates through three main technology areas: Smart Vision Systems (2D and 3D machine vision cameras, parking guidance systems, and security surveillance), Smart Manufacturing Systems (advanced tire building machinery and quality inspection equipment), and Smart Connectivity Systems (fiber optic cables, energy cables, and subsea cables). The company builds on four core technologies: vision & security, mission-critical communication, connectivity, and smart manufacturing. Founded in 1930 and headquartered in Haaksbergen in the eastern Netherlands, TKH has evolved from a cable manufacturer into a diversified technology group. The company serves customers globally, with approximately 24% of sales in the Netherlands, 35% elsewhere in Europe, 22% in Asia, and 15% in North America. With approximately 6,500 employees and €1.7 billion in annual turnover (2024), TKH is led by CEO Alexander van der Lof. The company achieved a record order book of €1.1 billion at year-end 2024 despite challenging market conditions in its fiber optic cable business. TKH has reduced its carbon footprint by over 70% compared to 2019 and is planning a Capital Markets Day in September 2025 to present its next-phase strategy.
