TactoTek and DuraTech Industries announced that DuraTech has licensed TactoTek Injection Molded Structural Electronics (IMSE) technology.
DuraTech is a TactoTek Design and Innovate licensee with rights to sell, design, and produce parts that use TactoTek’s intellectual property which includes 44 patent families with over 130 granted patents, as well as extensive trade secrets and know-how for designing and producing IMSE parts.
DuraTech will create and deliver IMSE solutions for its customers in North America and around the world from production facilities in the US.
DuraTech has a long history as a high-quality manufacturer of in-mold printed electronics (IME). Their IME solutions have resonated with a range of markets including home appliances, medical, industrial, automotive and consumer electronics.
TactoTek IMSE technology is an advanced form of IME that incorporates electronic components such as LEDs for illumination, and system-in-package (SiP) electronics for intelligence, within 3D injection molded structures, expanding the capabilities and use cases for smart surfaces.
“Our customers have been asking for more electronic functionality in IME parts and for that we need to work with TactoTek,” said Peter Johnson, President of DuraTech. “For DuraTech, becom-ing a TactoTek licensee expands our offerings for existing customers and opens new opportunities to do what we do best: reliably mass produce high quality parts.”
“DuraTech is a great match for TactoTek licensing – we focus on advancing and industrializing IMSE technology, and they focus on producing parts for their customers,” added Jussi Harvela, TactoTek CEO. “By making IMSE solutions more accessible in markets beyond automotive, and with production in North America, our relationship opens new business opportunities for Du-raTech and further confirms TactoTek’s go-to-market licensing model for IMSE technology.”
