Turn your product idea into a working product.
Building a hardware product is difficult when you don’t have an experienced electronics and firmware team in-house. Denotec helps startups turn ideas, prototypes and technical concepts into working products, from the first schematic through to a production-ready design.

Build your product without building a hardware team
You shouldn’t need to hire a complete engineering team just to get your first product off the ground. Denotec works alongside startups to provide the specialist engineering expertise needed to develop connected and electronic products. Whether you have an early concept, an existing prototype that needs improving, or a product that needs to be prepared for manufacturing, we can take on the technical development and help move your product forward.
From idea to prototype
Turn your concept into something you can demonstrate, test and put in front of customers or investors.
From prototype to product
Take an early prototype and develop the electronics, firmware and hardware into a robust product.
From product to production
Prepare your design for manufacturing with production-ready electronics, firmware and documentation.
Electronics Development
Design the electronics at the heart of your product.
From system architecture and component selection to schematic design, PCB design and prototyping, we develop electronics around the requirements of your product.
- Electronic system design
- Schematic design
- PCB design
- Component selection
- PCB prototyping
- Hardware bring-up
- Design for manufacture
Firmware Development
Make your hardware work.
We develop firmware for microcontrollers and connected devices, from early proof-of-concepts through to production-ready embedded software.
- Embedded firmware
- Microcontroller development
- Sensor integration
- Communications and connectivity
- Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and IoT
- Hardware testing and validation
- Firmware development and debugging
Product Prototyping
Get something real into your hands.
We can develop functional prototypes that allow you to test your idea, demonstrate the product and identify problems before committing to full-scale development.
Our prototyping work can include electronics, firmware, mechanical elements and supporting software.
Complete Product Development
Need more than electronics?
We can support the development of the wider product, bringing together electronics, firmware, software and physical design.
From an initial concept through to a functional prototype, we can provide the engineering capability needed to turn your idea into a real product.
Designed around your stage of development
Proof of concept
Have an idea but need to prove that it works? We can build a focused technical prototype to answer the key engineering questions and demonstrate the core functionality of your product.
Typical outcome: A working proof of concept you can demonstrate, test and use to secure the next stage of development.
MVP development
Ready to build a real product? We can develop the electronics and firmware required for a functional minimum viable product, giving you something you can put into the hands of customers, partners or investors.
Typical outcome: A functional prototype suitable for product testing and early market validation.
Product development
Already validated your idea? We can help turn your prototype into a robust, manufacturable product, addressing the engineering challenges that arise as you move towards production.
Typical outcome: A production-ready hardware and firmware design.
Engineering expertise without the overhead
Get access to experienced electronics and firmware engineering without building an entire in-house team.
One team across hardware and firmware
Hardware and firmware need to work together. Having both disciplines under one roof makes development faster and reduces communication gaps.
Built for early-stage products
We understand that requirements change as you learn. Our development process can adapt as your product evolves.
Practical, hands-on development
We don’t just produce designs on paper. We build, test and troubleshoot real hardware.
From prototype to production
Avoid starting again with a new engineering team when your product moves to the next stage. We can support development from the initial prototype through to production.
