Dimitrios N. Angelopoulos, with more than 50 years of
experience in designing, producing and securing perfect
construction for every use, in relation to the individual and
the environment, has created a High Technology industrial
unit, manned by executives (internal and external partners)
of many years of experience In the eld of Metal and Plastic
Structures, Telecommunications and in the eld of
Environmental Protection with patents and certications.
His constructions have always been innovative and
pioneering in Greece. Its clients are Municipalities,
Communities, Prefectures, Forest Associations, Agricultural
Cooperatives, Organizations, Private Enterprises, Hotel
Complexes in Greece and abroad.
In 1960, Dimitrios N. Angelopoulos founded the company AK HELLAS to design,
engineering, manufacturing and marketing Motor Tricycles, the prime means of freight
transport in Greece by that time, equipped with SACHS engines. The company had great
success and AK HELLAS Tricycles prevailed in the Greek market, which sold to more than
15,000 pieces up to 1972, when construction stopped because of the predominance of
light truck as a key means of transport.
During the same period the company manufactures 20 Generating Sets for OTE (Greek
telephone Company) to support basic telephone respective centers. In 1968, undertakes
the design, engineering, manufacturing and marketing of the rst modern Telephone
Booth for OTE and from that time until now established as the permanent supplier of
telephone booth to our country, constructing more than 250,000 booths for OTE. It is
noteworthy to mention that exports have been done during all these years, such as in
Libya (5.000 booths), in Jordan (15.000 booths), in Cyprus (5.000 booths), in
Czechoslovakia (3.000 booths) and in many other Balkan countries.
In early 1970 the company started a new activity, undertaking the construction of 2.800
Communications cages – for Army, Navy & Air Force, as well as Telecommunication’s
fortication Material and thunder protection cages and 2,000 Telephone Box Type T-12
with Magnetic phones.
Also in 1975 we manufactured 450,000 M1 Steel helmets for the Greek Army and the Air
Force and other 500,000 Helmets for various foreign countries. In 1972 we started
manufacturing the “A.ELLAS” pleasure boats, that in the 1980’s and the rst half of 1990,
became one of the leading manufacturers of berglass boats throughout Europe, with
exports of several thousand boats, across Europe and around the world, making even
many boats for the Greek Navy, the Coast Guard and the Greek Police.
On early 1980’s predicting the future, we decided to enter into new activities and new
products, related to renewable energy and the environment. So we started a program of
construction and installation of Wastewater treatment units Compact type, installing
more than 1,500 urban wastewater treatment plants at residences, hotels, camping and
industries, within and outside Greece.
By that time, the company undertakes as well the design, engineering, manufacturing
and marketing of Prefabricated steel tank “WATERLOCK” type for water supply,
irrigation and re ghting, a very successful business, resulting in more than 1,500 tanks
to have been installed to date across the country. We also manufacture and install about
2,500 Meteorological Masts, covering the requirements for recording and monitoring of
meteorological parameters, necessary for the installation of renewable energy parks,
such as wind turbines, etc.
In 1985, we designed and constructed an innovative Standalone Hybrid Power supply
system form 500 up to 3.000 Watt suitable for every use.
In early 1990 we manufactured Autonomous phone booths using photovoltaic panels for
areas without electricity, of which 15,000 located abroad and about 2,000 in our country
and in the same time, we feeded OTE with 150 Kontainer type Cottages for the
company’s needs.
At the same time, focusing in our effort to create Greek renewable energy industry, we
engaged in large European projects, concerning the design and construction of Wind
Turbine Blades with huge success, designing and building blades from 4 to 30 meters,
which are in operation in various wind turbines.
Design and construction of an innovative system of coastal protection and restoration,
the SPA System, applied successfully in many shores of our country and abroad. At the
same time designed and built Floating docks, made by aluminum and Irocco wood,
established as well, in many marinas and harbors in Greece and abroad.
In early 1990’s we set up the largest manufacturing plant of Phonecards and Smart cards
in the country, which to date has delivered more than 500,000,000 phonecards to OTE
and 500,000,000 of other cards for various uses in Greece and around the world.
The decade of 2000 we started manufacturing Autonomous circular metal houses from
12 to 85 square meters, with hybrid wind and photovoltaic power source.
Today, apart from the above mentioned activities, we engaged in the design and
construction of Mounts for photovoltaic panels, for parks, industrial roong and roof/
terraces for domestic installations.
We also carry out Licensing and Loan processing procedures, as well as the planning,
design and integrated manufacturing (Turn key), for interconnected and autonomous
Photovoltaic and Wind power parks.
