The success story of our company starts with the establishment of the book printer B. C. Heye & Co. in 1927. At first, we produce catalogues, journals and form sheets for companies and authorities.
The company Unterweser Reederei AG Bremen requires a calendar different to any calendar previously known. Our employees develop the wall calendar, which will determine the history of our company from now on: The first 3-month-calendar is born: Three months at a glance containing all-important data, just hang it on the wall and everything is perfectly readable – even from a greater distance. The new monthly calendar
The „Shipping Calendar“, as the 3-month-calendar is now called, quickly evolves to a complete success. The practical wall calendar with 3 months at a glance and large-size promotional message also becomes interesting for other industries, among others for the transport sector.
We keep developing our invention further and further and at the end of the 50s, we launch further sizes and designs of our original 3-month-calendar on the market.
The shipping calendar from Bremen has long since become an appreciated planning instrument and advertising vehicle in the whole world. Moreover, the product name terminic introduced in the beginning of the 60s has developed to stand for high-quality 3-month-calendars. Therefore, we have the name registered as an international trademark.
Apart from 3-month-calendars in various versions, we launch the 4-month-calendar with an even larger planning period of 4 months at a glance. ¬Our varied portfolio and our growing orientation towards the production of promotional calendars with multiple months at a glance makes us one of the leading calendar producers in Europe.
Wolfgang Rolla du Rosey takes over the responsibility as new managing director of the company from his father-in-law Rolf Ilg.
In order to provide our customers with an even larger planning preview and prominent space for your promotional message, we start the production of the large-size 6-month-calendar with half a year at a glance.
We proceed with big steps into the new millennium and name our company after our successful product, the terminic monthly calendar: The B. C. Heye & Co. becomes the terminic GmbH.
As already the 4-month-calendar, the newly added 5-month-calendar perfectly adapts to the requirements of the time for even more planning security and preview of dates.
We are growing and need more space for us – and for our calendars. From now on, we will produce the terminic promotional calendars with millions of copies at our newly built location in Bremen with the utmost professionalism according to certified quality stands – Naturally, everything will be coordinated with the special requirements of our customers.
