Our company was founded in 1979 in Verona, a city in the North of Italy. Since the start we had a clear vision of our company:  we wanted to provide high quality and functional products, supported by complete service, in order to gain total consumer satisfaction. Through the years this vision has become our company's mission. Konus has expanded globally through a network of subsidiaries and distributors. 

KONUS believes in financial strength and in a lean and effective organization, thanks to its Decision Makers and Ownership, who have a direct line to our customer base. We can define our supplier-client relationship as prompt in decision making with regard to business delays and inefficiencies.

A Reflecting or Newtonian Telescope uses two mirrors which magnify what is viewed. The first reflecting telescope was first described by James Gregory in 1663.
