Loewe Technology: “Made in Germany” – A Tradition of Development and Manufacturing

Technological progress and considered design continue to shape modern home entertainment products. Loewe combines its long company history with current technologies and the manufacturing of selected products at its site in Kronach, Bavaria.

“Made in Germany” is part of Loewe’s brand identity. Where this designation is used for a product, it refers to the applicable legal requirements and the specific manufacturing process of that product.

“Made in Germany” at Loewe

Loewe has a company history dating back to 1923. Over the decades, the company has been involved in the development and manufacture of consumer electronics.

Today, selected Loewe products are manufactured at the company’s site in Kronach, Bavaria. The extent of development, assembly and manufacturing carried out in Germany can vary depending on the individual product.

Modern manufacturing processes are combined with manual production steps where applicable. Quality checks are carried out as part of the relevant production processes.

Development and Manufacturing in Kronach

The Kronach site is an important part of Loewe’s current operations. Selected products are manufactured there and various production processes are carried out at the site.

Depending on the product, manufacturing may include different stages, from the assembly of individual components to final inspection. Industrial manufacturing technologies are combined with manual processes where appropriate for the respective product and production requirements.

The specific materials and manufacturing processes vary by model. Selected products may use materials such as glass, aluminium or wood.

Technology and Product Development

Loewe develops products for the home entertainment market, incorporating a range of technologies and features. These include OLED displays, integrated audio systems and connected functions, depending on the model.

The company’s history includes various developments in the field of consumer electronics. Historical milestones include the development of the Loewe Optaphon and the company’s involvement in the development of early electronic television technology.

For current products, technical specifications are complemented by considerations such as usability, design and the integration of different functions.

Product Lifetime and Software

The actual service life of an electronic product depends on various factors, including usage, maintenance, technological developments and the availability of spare parts and software.

Loewe provides software updates for certain products. The scope and duration of software support vary depending on the model and product generation.

The possibility of repairing a product or replacing individual components also depends on the specific product. It should therefore not be assumed that all Loewe products have a modular design or can be upgraded over a specific period of time.

Responsibility in Production and Product Design

The manufacture of electronic products has environmental impacts associated with factors such as materials, production, transportation and end-of-life treatment.

Loewe considers various requirements relating to material use, product design and applicable regulations in the development and manufacture of its products and packaging. However, the specific environmental benefits resulting from these measures cannot be stated or quantified in general terms for all products.

Product lifetime can also be one factor in the overall environmental impact of an electronic device. In general, using an existing product for longer can reduce the need for an early replacement. The actual environmental impact, however, depends on numerous factors.

Design and User Experience

Loewe combines technical functionality with a distinctive product design. Depending on the model, materials such as glass, aluminium or wood may be used.

In addition to technical specifications, product development considers aspects such as usability and integration into the home environment. Features such as the Loewe operating system and the available device functions vary by product and generation.

Why Loewe?

Loewe combines a long-standing company history with current home entertainment technology and the manufacturing of selected products in Germany.

For customers, “Made in Germany” can be one relevant consideration when choosing a product. Depending on the individual product, other factors may include technical specifications, design, usability, service and price.

Loewe therefore brings together a German manufacturing and company tradition with contemporary technology and product-specific design.
