I give up! Who makes "TI Flats"?

I've Googled myself in a complete circle, trying to find out who manufactures "TI FLats". I keep seeing them mentioned on TB and I'd like to buy some, but they're not something that I've seen in Germnay (unless "TI" is an abbreviation, rather than a brand name).

Can someone shed some light please?

They're Austrian strings. I think they've been around since the 1920's.

That's embarrasing! My next door neighbours make them and I didn't even realise!

Thanks for the tip, I'll go and look for some now.

Love the Flats on my Jazz fretless... and they get better with age!
