addSensors – Your Sensor Integration Partner

Sensing on your roadmap, integration still unclear? addSensors closes that gap — combining modular platforms, custom development, and integration support to move from concept to functional product.

What we develop

Our sensor solutions cover electrochemical, ion-selective, biochemical, and physical sensing — in printed and foil-based formats. Depending on the use case, this includes sensor stickers, wearable formats, and application-specific sensor layouts. Our sensors are particularly well-suited for continuous data monitoring — an increasingly relevant capability as MedTech products shift from isolated measurements toward continuous physiological insights. Typical application areas include wound care, catheter-based systems, and wearable or patch-based formats.

A platform-based approach

Where a suitable technical basis already exists, we build on it. Standard sensor elements, proven layouts, and established development know-how create a foundation for faster project starts and shorter development cycles — without sacrificing application fit. In practice, this means customers get a development approach that is both technically robust and more economical than a purely one-off custom process.

This platform logic is especially valuable when speed, development risk, and cost efficiency matter. Instead of reinventing every layer of the system, we can often adapt and refine a validated base architecture toward the target application.

Why this matters for MedTech companies

In medical technology, sensing is rarely just about the detector. The real challenge is translating sensing into a product environment that is reliable, scalable, manufacturable, and aligned with the final application. addSensors focuses on exactly that intersection — combining sensor expertise with integration thinking from the very beginning of a project to shorten the path from concept to implementation.


How you can work with addSensors

Depending on your product maturity and internal capabilities, there are three realistic paths:

1. Platform-based entry - If a suitable basis exists, we start from proven building blocks and adapt them to your application. Often the fastest and most cost-efficient route.

2. Adaptation on a platform base - If your target product requires modifications in performance, geometry, or materials, we customise an existing architecture. Speed is preserved, application fit increases.

3. Full custom development - Where no standard base is sufficient, we develop from the ground up: from requirements definition through functional prototypes, scale-up, and integration.

Larger companies typically engage us for a clearly scoped development task. For smaller and mid-sized MedTech companies, our role is often broader — not just developing a sensor, but ensuring it stays functional and maintainable as the product evolves over time.
