“In technology, sensor technology refers to the science and application of sensors to measure and control changes in environmental, biological or technical systems.”

What does this mean for us and our environment?
Our whole way of life is becoming smarter and smarter.
My house ventilates and regulates its climate automatically.
My car ensures active safety for me and other road users.
Charging statuses are monitored and regulated to ensure that my car is charged properly and safely at the charging station.
My combustion engine is also controlled so that it releases as few pollutants as possible.
In a medical emergency, a variety of devices ensure that my condition is constantly monitored and countermeasures can be taken in the event of difficulties.
My oil and gas can arrive safely at my home because small systems are constantly running through the pipelines and checking their condition.
How does my washing machine know what 90°C is?

We owe all these conveniences to small but sophisticated electronic components known as sensors. KERAFOL^® develops, produces and distributes base materials, the so-called ceramic substrates and tapes, for the manufacture of sensors. Due to the fact that our components are based on high-performance ceramics, your sensors are resistant to harsh environments such as high temperatures up to at least 1000°C, aggressive media (acid/alkali) and moisture. Our materials are also said to be biocompatible. The materials we use have been established in hip and knee prosthetics for many years.
