Relaunch of the VisioBraille brand within the LUCAS Group

dated 23.07.2025

VisioBraille GmbH filed for insolvency on March 24, 2025, and insolvency proceedings were opened on June 1, 2025. The background and trigger for this was the insolvency of an important supplier: METEC AG filed for insolvency on December 1, 2024, and ceased operations shortly thereafter.

We are pleased to announce, that we, LUCAS components GmbH, will continue production of the CCTV reading devices VisioBook, VisioDesk, and Visio24 screen readers, as well as the VarioUltra20 and VarioUltra40 Braille displays. This was made possible by the takeover from the insolvency administrator of VisioBraille GmbH.

We will also continue to offer full service for all former Baum and VisioBraille products (except Vario4) in the future – just as you were accustomed to from VisioBraille GmbH.

Unfortunately, VisioBraille GmbH is no longer in operation – however, we will continue to present the VisioBraille brand as part of LUCAS components GmbH in the future. We would like to expressly point out that LUCAS components GmbH is not the legal successor to VisioBraille GmbH.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us!
