about us

Karl Jenter, born in 1923, was already interested in beekeeping as a schoolboy, since his father himself was an experienced beekeeper. From 1945 onwards, he dealt more intensively with beekeeping and gained important experience in this field at an early age.

As an experienced designer, he began developing the reinsertion method in the early 1980s. A queen breeding device that allows any beekeeper to easily and easily breed queen bees. With the progress of development he founded in 1983 the same name company Karl Jenter.

Karl Jenter was known in the years 1987 - 1990 as the originator of the reinsertion method JENTER, in which he received a total of three major awards for his development in the queen breeding.

-1987 the Apimondia Gold Medal in Warsaw

-1989 Jahn Dzierzan gold medal in Rio de Janeiro

-1990 the Balkan gold medal in Belgrade

Later he traveled all over the world, from fair to fair, to further publicize his method of interchangeability and to present his latest developments.

In recent years, he has been working on other advanced developments, such as a queen twee, which allows queens to be kept simple and secure to make them easier to draw.

He initially devoted himself greatly to the progress in the queen breeding. In recent years, he began with a completely new development, a device with the royal jelly can be obtained in large quantities. For this purpose, several prototypes have been produced in recent years and numerous experiments carried out.

At the age of 87, Karl Jenter retired from the active business of the company in 2010 and handed over his life's work to his son Karl-Heinz Jenter.

Karl Jenter died on 13.09.2013 at the age of 90 years. He was a special person, a great inventor and thinker, a charismatic visionary who earned respect, admiration and recognition throughout the industry.

His inner drive and courage for far-reaching, sometimes unconventional decisions laid the foundation for numerous innovations.

We will honor his life's work and continue in his spirit.
