P: CLIENTS
a bit of history
in 1998, most of our clients were outdoor-brands. to be able to work in this highly competitive market-segment, we had build up a solid technical know-how for textiles, metals and plastics. We know how to work with complex ergonomical and biomechanical parameters and are able to foresee, react to and, where possible, set new trends- always appropriate to the client’s brand.

P: TOOLS
a bit of history
tools are mankind’s oldest design-projects. and since the stone-ages the design parameters haven’t changed much: tools are defined by their function, their ergonomics and the available manufacturing technology. the new ingredient is the brand, which can add to the product’s innovation-potential through its heritage and credibility. since 2001, we have designed and devolped over 170 products in the DIY/gardening market.
GARDENA 2009-2011 a bit of history
gardena, since 2007 part of the swedish husqvarna group, has been one of our strategic clients. since 2001, we have designed and devolped over 170 products in the DIY/gardening market, ranging from cutting tools to water pumps and irrigation systems. every year approximately 25 gardena-products, designed and developped by attivo, are launched into the market

a bit of history
for us, the design of consumer-electronics is more than just “skinning” printed circuit boards. it is about creating an interface between a human and “non-tangible” functions. our portfolio includes a variety of products, mostly in the telecommunication segment: mobile phones, DECT-phones, video phones and walkie-talkies. for most of those projects we have assisted our clients in the industrialisation process in the Far-East.
