This partnership will allow UNGAVA to move into larger premises located in the Parc technologique de Québec, and also to invest in new production tools.

“For the last 30 months, we especially focused on R&D. But with the actual projects and recent hiring, we didn't have enough space and it was affecting the productivity,” explains François Mainguy, CEO of UNGAVA. He adds:  “Designing products requires maximum concentration. I wanted to provide my team with an ideal work environment, highly inspired by Apple.”

The company will also invest in rapid prototyping and production tools.  “We manufacture a lot of portable products with accessories. We decided to invest in a unique 3D printer technology, as well as in other digital machine tools”, says Mr. Mainguy.

UNGAVA is specialized in the design and manufacturing of portable instruments for test and measure, for different industries. For certain markets, UNGAVA commercializes under its brand. For others, it has OEM customers and products are commercialized with their own logo.
