This is the journey of how business partners, employees, clients and suppliers grew into friends, and how together, we formed the family that Arthur Holm is today. Guided by our core values—innovation, trust, commitment, resilience, teamwork, and a dedication to continuous learning—we have navigated this remarkable path. As technology artisans, we honour the significance of tradition, loyalty, commitment, craftsmanship, and the personal touch that defines a family business.
Founded in 1994, Albiral began with a relentless pursuit of perseverance, innovation, and a deep commitment to its customers. From humble beginnings to a global presence, the company has continuously pushed the boundaries of meeting room technology, especially with the creation of the Arthur Holm brand in 2008.
At the heart of Arthur Holm’s success lies a passion for innovation. By combining cutting-edge research, technological expertise, traditional craftsmanship, and a profound understanding of user needs, the company has consistently introduced groundbreaking solutions that have transformed communication and collaboration.
Did you know that in the 1990s, Albiral was known as Avialec, which stood for “aviation and electronics”? The company started by building ultralight planes and developing electronic products for the aviation market, including stroboscopic lamps. The fact that a small company like ours could build a functional plane speaks volumes about our capabilities. However, the aviation market proved unprofitable, leading us back to manufacturing monitors. Mr. Romero, the founder, had extensive experience designing TV sets in the seventies and eighties, and he was the one who created the brand Albiral in 1985. More than 20,000 CRT televisions were manufactured under this brand at that time.
Additionally, he founded the brand Belson for car radios, demonstrating his visionary approach with several patents registered in the seventies.
After the Avialec experience Mr. Romero’s daughter, Montse Romero, joined the company and rebranded it as Albiral Display Solutions, shifting its focus to the design and manufacture of video monitors. This time, it was our imagination that took flight, and we concentrated on creating monitors for broadcast, military, education, and digital signage.
In 2002, we designed a retractable CRT monitor to integrate into a table. Despite the challenges of working with such a bulky and heavy device, we succeeded. It wasn’t very silent or slim, but it worked…
The advent of flat screens, which were lighter and more space-efficient, further propelled our journey.
In 2004, we secured our first patent. Though the monitor’s appearance back then was vastly different from today’s designs, the seeds of our innovation had already been planted.
And when Danish inspiration arrived, Henrik Holm proudly introduced Arthur Holm. And what a change this was! Danish design combined with Mediterranean passion ushered in a new era.
Arthur Holm’s defining characteristic is its ability to anticipate and adapt to evolving customer needs and the company has demonstrated unparalleled agility in meeting the demands of a rapidly changing world.
Moreover, Arthur Holm’s dedication to quality craftsmanship and attention to detail have set the industry standard for excellence. Each product is a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to delivering superior performance, reliability, and aesthetics. And the brand is always there supporting customers and partners.
Beyond technological achievements, Arthur Holm embodies a culture of innovation and collaboration. The company’s team of passionate engineers, designers, and visionaries work tirelessly to push the boundaries of what’s possible, constantly striving to create solutions that inspire and delight. Each detail reflects the expertise of our skilled workers, ensuring unparalleled functionality, quality, and beauty. It is a true team effort where every member, from the designers to the assemblers, plays an equally important role.
Today, besides our manufacturing plant, we have physical presence in Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, Riyadh, and Mumbai.
Looking ahead, the next chapter in Arthur Holm’s storied history promises to be as exciting and transformative as the last. With a legacy built on innovation, excellence, and customer satisfaction, the company is poised to continue shaping the future of display technology for years to come.
As Arthur Holm celebrates three decades of innovation, it stands as a shining example of what can be achieved through vision, determination, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Here’s to thirty years of pushing boundaries, inspiring creativity, and transforming the way we see the world!
