Fast Innovative solutions

Our research and development department is working on the development of new batteries and on optimizing existing batteries in our product assortment.  The interdiscipline team of electrical engineers, technicians, electro - chemists and precision mechanical engineers is developing prototypes for our next generation of batteries.  Our greatest advantage is that we are part of the Swatch Group and this allows a lively exchange of information with specialists from all of our sister companies and partners.  In addition, we have access to the extensive resources within The Swatch Group – whether it be machinery, facilities or experience from prior, joint, and future projects. 

Since our production facility is located in Itingen, our HQ in Switzerland, we also have fast decision - making procedures and a significant internal know - how and resources at the same location.  The developed prototypes are immediately tested in a production run in order to respond as quickly as possible to changing market requirements.

The market is inherently demanding an ever - greater flexibility, faster implementation and first - class reliablity.  The most modern, automated processes are required, and we satisfy these requirements.  The facilities and machinery of our production lines ensure a reliable and also precision manufacture of top - quality batteries that our global partners demand.
