About Us
The founders of Strike Technologies identified a gap in the market and brought the company to life in 1987 to service the metering, lightning protection and MV relay markets with niche products.
For the first decade of its existence, Strike Technologies was founder owned. In the late 90’s Strike Technologies looked for a bigger partner to expand its opportunities into new market and sold its entire shareholding to the then Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) listed Power Technologies (Pty) Ltd (Powertech). Strike blossomed under its wings adding several new products to its range. In 2016 Powertech refocused its strategy and decided to divest Strike Technologies. Telema S.p.A saw in Strike Technologies a major fit to complement its own offerings and acquired 100% of the company.
Strike Technologies has established itself as a leading developer, manufacturer and distributor of medium to high voltage Protection Relays, Surge Protection Equipment, Industrial Earth Leakage Relays and Protection Test Equipment predominantly for Mining, Utilities, Industrial, HealthCare and Rail markets.
Our key to success lies in attracting, retaining and developing top quality people. Our low staff turnover pays tribute to the fact that we don’t only pay lip service but truly care for our people and look after them well.
Our Shareholders
Strike Technologies is 100% owned by Telema. Since 1975 TELEMA S.p.A. designs and produces, in its factory in Piacenza (Italy), stainless steel power resistors for various application. Whilst serving the Italian market is still a key focus, towards the end of the 90’s, the company started to expand its activities globally and build a presence abroad. Firstly, in Europe (France, UK, Germany) and then worldwide (USA, Canada, China, India, Australia, Russia and South Africa).
Today the Telema Group is the world leader for power electric resistors with revenues in excess of 200 million Euros and over 1800 employees. This growth has been achieved thanks to the diversification of the product portfolio that in recent years has been expanded with the offer of contractors, disconnectors and protection relays for the railway market, in addition to the cooling fans for our applications in forced ventilation.
