Our company history can be traced back to 1991. Genvolt was formed from a management buy-out of Astec Very High Power from Astec Europe Ltd. The result was that General High Voltage was incorporated on 21st December 1991. Genvolt can trace its roots to Brandenburg Ltd., a company which for several decades was almost synonymous with high voltage.
