TER Tecno Elettrica Ravasi srl was established in Olgiate Molgora (Lecco), in 1962, the brainchild of its founder, Sergio Blasi, who saw the possibility of successfully entering the field of switches and controls for industrial hoisting machines.
Growth was fast from the start, favoured by the phase of industrialization under way in Italy. From the early seventies, TER started a process of internationalization, with the first export sales to the Spanish market.
TER’s gradual expansion in various markets around the world was combined with increasing diversification of its product range linked to the search for new business sectors, including, already in the mid 80s, the wind energy industry.
Over the years, TER focused its strategy on the creation of innovative, reliable products that could anticipate demands from the market. To this end, it started combining mechanical technology with electronics in some of its products.
In 1987, TER set up an in-house lab for product testing and in 1993 it was the first Italian company to obtain the ISO 9001 certification from the Dutch certification company KEMA.
New headquarters were opened in Calco (Lecco) in 2007 and in 2012 TER celebrated its first fifty years of industrial history, looking to the future and to new market challenges
