Intellectual Property

Protecting our discoveries to protect our future

Our first value is research. Protecting our intellectual property is a crucial asset that enables us to maximize our ability to innovate. In our 70-year history we have deposited over 300 patents, with the latest years marking an average of about 10 inventions per year.

Enacting a ‘best practice’ approach to protect our intellectual property enables us to define stricter boundaries in terms of technological excellence, thus facilitating the creation of strategic partnerships with other companies, universities and research centres too. In addition, it allows us to be on the edge of innovation at all times.
