materials and chemistry for physical products
chemical engineering.
where the materials matter
Our chemical engineers work on the parts of a product where materials matter as much as the electronics: skin-contact components, coatings, formulations and chemical sensing. They sit with our electronics and design teams, so material choices are made alongside the rest of the product instead of handed over at the end.
what we do
formulation
Stable, scalable formulations that perform the same in the field as they did on the bench.
materials selection
Choosing polymers, coatings and adhesives that suit the use, the environment and the manufacturing process.
biocompatibility
Material selection and validation for wearables and medical devices that touch skin.
chemical tests & sensing
Developing the chemistry behind tests and sensors, then integrating it with the electronics that read it.
process design
Lab processes designed with scale-up, safety and cost in mind, ready to hand to a manufacturer.
regulatory guidance
Working out which chemical and materials rules apply to your product, such as REACH and RoHS, before they become a launch problem.
catch it early
Material problems tend to show up late: a strap that irritates skin, a coating that fails after a month, a sensor chemistry that drifts. Bringing chemistry in at the start catches them while they're still cheap to fix.
Work runs in fixed-price stages, and all the results and IP are yours.
