Made in Germany
Not every product advertised as "Made in Germany" is actually developed, manufactured or serviced in Germany.
As a German manufacturer of metal detectors and 3D ground scanners, KTS-Electronic regularly receives inquiries regarding imitation products, misleading advertising and unrealistic detection claims.
Why Manufacturer Information Matters
A genuine manufacturer should be able to provide:
- A verifiable business address
- Direct technical support
- Product documentation
- Spare parts and service
- Long-term availability
- Clear information about product development and manufacturing
How to Verify German Origin
Ask for a certificate of origin
For many exported products, a certificate of origin issued by the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce can be provided.
Verify the company
Check whether the manufacturer provides a real business address, direct contact information and technical support.
Contact the manufacturer directly
A genuine manufacturer should be able to answer technical questions before and after purchase.
Be cautious with unrealistic claims
Claims involving extreme long-range detection, unrealistic depth performance or vague technical explanations should always be verified carefully.
