EMTEC markets consumer computer data storage products and other computer related consumables. The company is part of the Dexxon Group, headquartered in Gennevilliers, France.
EMTEC evolved from BASF Magnetics, originally producing magnetic tapes. Since its origin, EMTEC has undergone several transformations. Between 1998 and 2002 all of BASF's cassette lineup (Ferro Extra, Chrome Extra and Chrome Super, along with the budget tapes Sound 1 and Sound 2) were rebranded EMTEC. While cassette manufacture has since ceased in 2005, and reel-to-reel tape operations were sold to RMGI, EMTEC continues to manufacture other recordable media such as optical discs, memory cards, and USB flash drives. Distribution channels have decreased and EMTEC presence in the market is a shadow of its former BASF self.
