Product Development: Full System Design and Optimisation
We understand that best performance is only achieved when the full system is challenged and developed. This is where IG can add significant value as our team aims to understand what required and desired characteristics are and how the system can be designed in the smartest way.

Our Sectors
Diagnostics
Our Gii-Sens biosensor solution is the perfect tool to seamlessly integrate your assay into a standout product. We can also work with you to customise a sensor as per your requirements.
Battery life extension solutions for IoT
Our Gii Technology renders battery changes in IoT products a thing of the past.
Gii Innovations
Our Gii has many exciting properties and we are discovering more and more on a weekly basis. Let us know what performance challenge you’d like to overcome with our dedicated team.
Gii Innovation Examples
Gii-based energy harvesting mat
Did we ever think it would be possible to harvest energy from simply walking? Researchers at the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) have proven that this is possible with Gii.
Take a look at their published results on ScienceDirect.
“This discovery has enormous potential for the booming global Internet of Things (IoT) industry. Given the global need for alternative sources of green energy, Gii-Teng can potentially provide a sustainable source of power for the multitude of small electronic devices which we use in our everyday lives, bringing us one step closer to realising a greener and more energy-abundant future.” - Dr Carlos Garcia Nunez, Engineering and Physical Sciences Lecturer
Gii sensors giving prosthetics ‘human touch’
This project aims to develop sensors which provide enhanced capabilities to robots, helping improve their dexterity and motor skills, through the use of accurate pressure sensors which provide haptic feedback and distributed touch.
“Our collaboration with Integrated Graphene has led to the development of advanced pressure sensor technology, which could help transform robotic systems.” - Professor Des Gibson, UWS Director of the Institute of Thin Films, Sensors and Imaging
It is led by the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) and supported by the Scottish Research Partnership in Engineering (SRPe) and National Manufacturing Institute for Scotland (NIMS) industry doctorate programme in advanced manufacturing. Read more about it here.

Our Process
Process Excellence drives us. This is why more than 1 in 3 employees are certified in this important skill. Our professionals offer a friendly but disciplined and efficient process to clearly define your needs so that we can maximise the potential of your idea as quickly as possible.
Consultation
We provide comprehensive support throughout the entire design process, from ideation to product launched. Get in touch with us today to explore the possibilities of working together on your project.
Project Management
Our Product Development team members are highly skilled in executing projects independently, using Six Sigma and project management methodology.
Design
We can assess your requirements and product flow, including system development. We offer a comprehensive system risk analysis that identifies critical technical and usability obstacles that must be resolved.
Prototyping
With our cutting-edge in-house rapid design and prototyping capabilities, we can quickly customise and refine your concepts while providing preliminary performance data.
Rendering and Animation
Utilising high-quality still image renders and animations enable deeper insights into design concepts and provide excellent material for your stakeholder communication needs.
High-Volume Manufacture
We have experience in taking projects from concept to high-volume manufacture. Whether you are ready for this step or would like further development, we can provide it.
Testing and Data Analysis
We have cutting-edge testing equipment in-house, which guarantees that your idea will be thoroughly justified throughout the design process.
Verification and Validation
Our Six Sigma trained professionals are experts in verifying and validating products, ensuring the highest quality standards are kept.
“We utilised Integrated Graphene over a 15 month period from mid 2017 to late 2018 to realise a complex moulded fluidics device. We found Integrated Graphene to be excellent in terms of understanding customer (LumiraDx) needs, innovating to find viable solutions, testing and proving the solutions and ultimately providing a working device. They have a wealth of experience, extensive in-house capability and skills that proved invaluable.
I would have no hesitation in working with Integrated Graphene again on future projects or in fact recommending them to other medical device developers.
There are very few good companies out there in the medical device innovation space, Integrated Graphene are up there with the best of them.”
— David Lang, Engineering Director, LumiraDx
