Company Profile

Since its inception in 1984, TV One Ltd (originally Vine Micros Ltd) has been a huge influence on the Audio Video Technology Market and has produced some essential equipment for the Pro AV, Broadcast, Systems Integration, Presentations and Live Events markets.

When TV One first began, we were originally producing a range of peripherals for the Acorn BBC range of computers, however it wasn't long before the development of our first ever PC-TV Adaptor pushed the company into the world of Desktop Video. The huge success of these initial TV One products was to be the first step in transforming our small UK business into an ever-expanding international company with offices all over the globe including USA (Cincinnati & Miami), Taiwan, China, Germany, and Argentina.

The growing product range and diversity offered by TV One in these early years ensured our success well into the 1990's and in 1998, our Research and Development team, based in Thanet, UK, developed the world-renowned CORIO technology which would go on to be the back-bone of all TV One products manufactured in the UK, propelling the company’s recognition across the world for our superior range of premium-quality equipment. This contributing factor helped TV One to win the 'Thanet Business of the Year' award in 2000 and was also highly commended for 'Thanet Exporter of the Year' award.

TV One went from strength to strength in the new millennium with the development of our exciting and professional range of CORIO2 products such as the C2-7200 Dual Channel Video Processor. This Multi-Format Video processor became the recipient of the 2005 STAR (Superior Technology Award Recipient) Award at the NAB2005 convention in Las Vegas. This new decade also saw the introduction of an entirely new kind of TV One product as after years of intensive research at the UK offices, premium-quality audio processing was developed to compliment the range of video processing equipment. The first audio processing units became available in 2007 and production of more advanced audio products is due to begin in early 2008, hi-lighting TV One's on-going quest for excellence in the production of advanced technology for the ever-increasing market place.

Despite the international stature of TV One, our company is still firmly rooted in the local community and we pride ourselves on our sense of community spirit, often donating to local charities and sourcing products and services from local businesses wherever possible. Our dedicated staff are the major force behind the continuing success of TV One and our European offices in Margate, UK, are not only the work place of our highly-skilled Research and Development team but is also the manufacturing site of all CORIO2 products available from TV One. This purpose-built facility received a complete upgrade in July 2006 and now complies fully to the RoHS directive, meaning that the equipment produced at this site meets the highest international environmental standards. Our company is committed to providing products that are the preferred choice to our customers as well as being the best possible quality for the environment. Recycling is second nature to TV One and we recycle everything from paper to electronic equipment having fully supported the WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive since inception, which aims to reduce the quantity of waste from electrical and electronic equipment and increase its re-use, recovery and recycling.

As well as environmental issues, TV One is also governed by our dedication to quality and our efficient management system has contributed to TV One Ltd attaining ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2006 for the Design, Manufacture, Test and Distribution of Audio Video Products. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the source of some 15,000 International Standards for business, government and society and these strict guidelines that TV One adhere to ensure that the processes that influence product and service quality from TV One are of the highest possible standard.

Hard work and constant pursuit of improvement has been paramount to the lasting success of TV One and as we move forward into the future, we know that the continual development of our superior CORIO2 technology will ensure that the TV One name will remain associated with premium-quality Audio Video products and will further drive the TV One brand to the forefront of the Pro AV, Broadcast, Systems Integration, Presentations and Live Events markets.

We have many exciting plans for future development and growth at TV One and we are looking forward to the on-going change and success that the future will bring.
