2025 will see Soltech IT continue to donate IT equipment to school's throughout the Southwest as part of our 'Giving Back To Schools' donation campaign. 


We were delighted to be able to donate more than £15,000 of 65" and 75" Promethean ActivPanel Touchscreens to six local schools and MAT's.


Gareth Jones, commented "As a business it's great to be able to give something back to schools, be they a customer or not. Our most recent donations have helped transform the learning environments of pupils which is something we are very proud of."


These most recent donations have not only included a 65" or 75" Promethean ActivPanel Touchscreen, the schools have also received WiFi module upgrades, Android functionality, wall mounting brackets and relevant cables, plus delivery, removal / WEEE disposal of old equipment, installation and training, all as part of Soltech IT's donation.


That's around a £3,000 donation at each school or MAT.

Acquisition Announcement: Ionet Systems Limited


Following an 18 month period of consultation, we are pleased to officially announce that today Soltech IT has completed its acquisition of Ionet Systems Ltd, a privately-held, IT and AV solutions provider based in Bristol.

Clients range from charities, educational establishments, SME's and the public sector organisations including the NHS.


Ziggy Staniaszek, Managing Director of Ionet Systems Limited, said "After discussions with a number of companies we decided that Soltech IT Ltd were the best fit for our customer base, with a similar product and services portfolio to Ionet, and a solid IT Support offering with experienced and personable staff. Importantly Soltech IT are a local company with offices servicing other areas of the UK."


Richard Sheppard, Managing Director of Soltech IT, commented, "Ionet Systems identify as an organisation with similar business credentials as our own, the same values and ethos, and a comprehensive and highly complementary portfolio of IT services. Merging the two businesses under the Soltech IT brand will deliver the increased breadth, depth and maturity of the IT services and solutions we provide, whilst also supporting our business growth aspirations with the expansion of services and capability. This will be to the benefit of our customers, both existing and new, as well as our people and those we wish to attract to the business in the future."


"I would like to place on record my thanks to Ziggy Staniaszek for helping to facilitate this process and I look forward to working with the Ionet team under the Soltech IT umbrella."
