Televés is a Spanish company dedicated to the design, fabrication and commercialization of telecommunications equipment for buildings and homes. The company specializes in the reception and distribution of radio and television signals.
Founded in 1958, Televés was originally an antenna manufacturing workshop. Its founders were Ricardo Bescansa, Amador Beiras and Domingo Carrascal. Its headquarters are located in Santiago de Compostela. While maintaining its core business of manufacturing equipment for the reception, distribution and analysis of radio and television signals, the company has diversified into businesses including professional lighting with LED technology, audiovisual services through fiber optic and wireless networks for hotels and buildings in the hospitality industry and wavelength-division multiplexing for the Spanish healthcare sector.
Televés is a multinational corporation comprising around twenty companies, with 11 international subsidiaries in: Portugal, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Poland, Scandinavia, Russia, the United States, China, and the United Arab Emirates. Through an extensive distributor network, the company delivers its products to more than 100 countries in five continents. In 1995, Televés joined the DVB, an international consortium of companies that promotes digital television technology standards.[1]
As of 2021, Televés' earnings were estimated to be €212 million, and an estimated gain of 800 employees.
Business model
With nearly 60 years of experience, Televés has launched more than 1,500 different products. Televés has its own certification and quality control laboratories, and in 2017 launched its project to adapt to the smart factory model or Industry 4.0.
As a manufacturer of equipment for the reception and distribution of broadcast television signals, Televés played a key role in the digital television transition, both in Spain and other European countries.
In the collective imagination, the Televés brand is closely linked to satellite dishes painted in the characteristic corporate orange color, which corresponds to Pantone 137C or RAL 1007.[2] In this sense, Televés has been the first Spanish company to obtain a color trademark, being the exclusive user of this color in terrestrial antennas (Trademark No. 4,025,913). In July 2013, one of these antennas became part of the collection of the National Museum of Science and Technology at its headquarters in A Coruña,[3] as an example of technological development that has had a real impact on the lives of citizens.
Since 2014, Televés has entered the health care sector, with the development of its own solutions for the care of elderly and dependent people[4] along with a project to develop a smart room[5] for the Galician Healthcare Service.
