In2tec are known for solving the most challenging problems, breaking down barriers around fit, weight, shape, look and feel, and optimising electronic design solutions for performance and cost for the most demanding of customers across motorsport, prestige automotive, defence, aerospace and medical.
We provide the full range of electronics expertise in house – from concept and design through to engineering and project management. This, combined with our high quality manufacturing facilities in the UK and in Asia, means we’re uniquely placed to deliver elegant solutions to the highest standards.
Our solutions weigh less, take up less space, offer better connectivity, durability and reliability, while requiring less components (often cutting costs) compared to our competitors. This is possible because of our patented technology and over 30 years’ experience on the forefront of cutting-edge electronics.
