EP Group added a piece of electrical heritage to its portfolio by partnering with Theben — the oldest manufacturer of timer relays, with a complete range of timers and relays to its name.

Theben’s long history is matched by deep specialist expertise in time-based control: the timers, time switches, and relays that automate lighting, HVAC, and countless everyday building functions.

The German manufacturer signed on to work with EP Group as its distributor, with a market study underway to position the brand for growth across the region and within EP Group’s wider product basket.

Timing and control were a natural complement to EP Group’s existing relay and automation lines, adding depth in a category with steady, broad-based demand across commercial and infrastructure projects.

Pairing a pioneering manufacturer with EP Group’s regional reach gave customers access to specialist time-control products backed by knowledgeable local support — a combination not easily found elsewhere.

For Theben, the partnership offered a credible path into the GCC, leveraging EP Group’s relationships and distribution rather than entering an unfamiliar market alone.

The addition also reflected EP Group’s philosophy of completeness — ensuring that, whatever a project requires, the right product is available within its portfolio.

By bringing a heritage brand like Theben into the fold, EP Group added both pedigree and practical breadth to an already comprehensive offering.
