The company history
The start and development of the company
- It is the year 2007 and we are extending our vehicle fleet by new work platforms yet again. This time we have purchased a special crawler-mounted work platform Teupen LEO 15 GT, which is unique on the Czech market, a truck-mounted work platform Teupen EURO B 25 T, very practical work platforms Moskito Teupen which weigh only 750kg and reach working height of 9,7m and a new tow truck Mitsubishi.
- Year 2006 was a very busy year with many orders so we decided to purchase another assembly work platform Mercedes B 25 T. It was taken over by Mr. M. Hervert personally at the headquarters of the company Teupen. He is in the photo with the company manager Mr. Alfons Thihatmer.
- 2005 – a reconstruction of our centres in Brno and Český Brod
- 2004 – we purchased a Czech innovation: 22metre-high crawler-mounted work platform OMME
- In 2003 we enlarged our centre in Brno by an administration building and workshops.
- In 2002 we purchased our 60th work platform and reached a total working height of 900m.
- 2001 – yet another strategic investment. This time we invested into an administration building in Český Brod.
- 2000 – breaking point in the way of financing our company. We terminated our unsatisfactory cooperation with Česká Spořitelna and established cooperation with an Austrian bank Waldvierler Sparkasse, which led to a change from a financial leasing to financing by bank loan.
- In 1999 we purchased a European innovation: 29metre-high trailer-mounted work platform OMME.
- In 1998 we started cooperating with the company EUROSTROJ SCHLAGER and purchased some more scissor lifts.
- 1997 – another breaking point for the company. Thanks to a purchase of a on the Czech market unique work platform CELA with working height of 40 metres from Teupen we took our customers up to the sky literally. In the same year there was an amalgamation of HMP SERVIS Ltd. and the company PLOŠINA from Brno where we then opened a branch.
- During the year 1996 we extended our vehicle fleet by three COBRA machines which can be hired without operating staff.
- A year later, in 1995, we gave our customers the opportunity to “fly up to the sky”. We purchased a platform IVECO TEUPEN with working height 26,5m from Ing. Štrunc. The purchase was accomplished via the company Český leasing which showed its good will to a small company at that time. We purchased our first DENKA LIFT platform with working height of 25m.
- 1994 – we made our first leasing contract and purchased a platform with working height of 11,5m on MAZDA undercarriage from the company INREKA, and another AVIA MP13 and AVIA MP 16.
- In March 1993 we established a partnership with the company Rothlehner, represented by Mr. Tomášek and Mr. Schlager. We also purchased some platforms (FORD BRONCO, AVII MP 13).
- In January 1992 AVIA MP 13 served its first customer (putting up billboards). A lot of orders followed and we were forced to purchase two more platforms – TATRA 815 MP 27 and another AVII MP 13.
- 1991 – we purchased and mended our very first platform AVIA MP 13. This was the start of HMP SERVIS history.
