Since 1984 we deliver shining results: As experts in lighting technology Hansen specializes in the development and manufacture of light sources and the associated electronics such as converters, electronic ballasts and power supplies. With a team of around 80 employees we manufacture our products at our headquarters in Haselund, northern Germany. We have always been committed to producing quality “made in Germany” while our products are being used all over the world.

Hansen products
Since 1984 the name Hansen stands for innovative and high-quality products for lighting projects. Having concentrated on neon in the past, it is now LED technology that stands in our focus as an energy-saving and versatile technology.

Our company history
Having started as a small business, our company has firmly established itself as an important player in the market. The key to our success is progress. We have always been striving to keep up with the times and further develop our technological achievements.
Here is a short overview of our company history:
The company “Neontechnik Hansen” is founded: The founder Hans-Thomas Hansen completed an apprenticeship as telecommunications technician, graduated in electrical engineering from the Flensburg University of Applied Sciences and worked for several years in Berlin before he started his own business together with his wife and another colleague at the age of 27.
Several garages and a wood storage facility at Süderstraße 1 in Viöl provide the space for future production.
Make two out of one: Instead of a single company, there is now the “Hansen GmbH, technologie-elektronik-licht”, responsible for the production, and the “Hansen GmbH” acting as a sales company. The Dane, Keld Verner Olsen, becomes the responsible partner and associate handling the increasing export of electronic converters from the export warehouse in Esbjerg/Denmark. Hansen present their extended range of converters at various national and international trade fairs. The annual production of converters reaches 12,000 devices.
A new office and production building at Westerende 28 in Viöl is acquired and converted: The successful sale of converters requires new capacities for the production of 17,500 devices per year.
70,000 converters per year: Two large orders lead to a massive increase in production.
From manual and home work to automatic SMD insertion: Small components are now being automatically inserted into the circuit boards resulting in increased reliability and speed. The production reaches 85,000 converters per year.
Construction of a new office and production building in Haselund: Meanwhile, the converter production has increased to 105,000 devices.
Hans-Thomas Hansen and Robert Munk acquire the company “Klinger-Neon” in Berlin. It is now responsible for the sales and distribution in Germany and is renamed to “Klinger – Neon Hansen & Munk GmbH”.
Expansion of the core business (neon converters) to include the production of LED technology: First tests with light emitting diodes are being carried out and a patent filed for the LED Tube. The converter production reaches 140,000 units.
The LED Tube becomes a “hit”: Its superior technical properties make this innovation the most important product besides the converters.
LED cannot be stopped: The production is increased, the future trend is clear.
A new 1,200 sqm production space is planned: 95,000 neon converters and 38,000 LED converters per year leave the factory in Haselund.
Start of the construction work for the production hall extension.
Active in the north and in the south: Completion of the new production hall and start of the distribution in Austria.
Hansen is growing: The company has now 76 employees, and a marketing department is set up.
The production of the LED Tube is still the main business besides the fabrication of neon and LED converters. But the demand for our LED Profiles and Luminous Panels rises. The latter becomes “product of the year 2010”.
The order situation remains very good: A new 2,200 sqm production hall is being built.
The Minister President of the state of Schleswig-Holstein visits the company on 12 May 2011 and is full of praise saying: “This shows once again how highly skilled we in Schleswig-Holstein are working”.
With the LED Pipe and the LED street lamp GALAXXIS 2.0 two further Hansen innovations establish themselves in the market. The LED Tube is again “product of the year 2011” – this time with the Power-2x100 LEDs providing a cost-efficient solution for more brightness.
The year is off to a good start: The demand for energy-efficient LED products is booming.
The frame-mount LED spots are now available with 2.5 watts for a higher luminosity. While the LED street lamp GALAXXIS has been installed more than 2,000 times, other types of lamps such as the LED ceiling lamp STARLUXX are being developed. The construction of the new production hall is completed in autumn.
