New name reflects the power of connection
D&D Mechatronics and HYB continue as Contecto
BOXMEER – D&D Mechatronics and its development subsidiary HYB are proud of their new, joint name: Contecto. Over the past decades, D&D Mechatronics came into full bloom, welcoming several new business units and even its own development subsidiary. Due to this success, the existing names no longer covered what the company did. The new name, Contecto, once again reflects uniformity. The world may now know: its official launch takes place on 1 January 2020.
D&D Mechatronics BV, founded in 2002, operates at the Sterckwijck business park at the intersection of electronics and mechanics, particularly in combining the two. And it’s precisely in that area that many developments have taken place in recent years.
Contecto: connections under one roof
Hence the new name, with which the company can now present all these business units in a unified way. “Our 35 specialists are constantly making connections: within our team, with our clients and within projects. All under one roof. The new name reflects that perfectly,” says director and founder Piet van Duijnhoven. ‘Contecto’ is a free combination of the English word for connecting, ‘connecting’, with the second part derived from Latin, literally meaning ‘roof’. With the tagline ‘Connecting creativity and innovation’, Contecto shows it’s at home across every market: from ‘simple’ assignments to the most challenging ideas, from producing circuit boards to innovative technological feats. “The name Contecto doesn’t so much emphasise what we do, but rather how we do it. This means our company can keep growing without the name becoming a limitation. Just as clients can approach us at any level and at any stage of product development, depending on their needs. We follow an eight-step process for this. On the technology side, this runs from idea evaluation through concept development and functional design to product development. On the manufacturing side, it covers prototyping, engineering and production, ultimately followed by customer support. And clients can ‘step in’ at whichever point suits them best.”
