Altech Netstar pioneered the stolen vehicle tracking and recovery
industry in SA in 1994, and is the market leader in terms of size,
product range, and an unsurpassed private recovery infrastructure.
Owned by the JSE listed Altech Group, Altech Netstar employs over 800
people, based at its head office in Midrand, regional offices in Durban
and Cape Town and branches in Port Elizabeth, Rustenburg, Richards Bay,
Newcastle, Witbank, Bloemfontein, Polokwane and Nelspruit.
Over 10,000 Altech Netstar tracking systems are installed per month,
through a network of over 100 fitment centres around the country.
Altech Netstar operations extend into Zambia, Namibia, Swaziland, and
Botswana. It has also established a successful operation in Malaysia.
With its footprint extending into Southern Africa and its exclusive
ground and air recovery teams, Altech Netstar is able to recover
vehicles in an average time of less than an hour. Without having to rely
on the SAPS, Altech Netstar can respond immediately and where possible
hand the recovered vehicle directly back to the owner.
Accepted by insurers and motor manufacturers alike, Altech Netstar
caters for a wide range of needs with its product line-up. Its locally
designed and manufactured systems have stood the test of time, and
include the famous Early Warning System with panic button, the advanced
Vigil with full GPS/GPRS functionality, Cyber-Sleuth with a convenient
internet location function, the ever popular Sleuth, and now the latest
personal tracking device, Guardian.
