How it all started
Unitive Design was formed in 2014 by Dr Philip Marsden who wanted to offer a streamlined design and development service to bring next generation technologies to life. Based on scientific and industrial research, the company initially focused on Medical Devices. Since then we’ve expanded into industry, translating technologies across every sector. By designing and developing bespoke sensing, imaging and other systems for the industrial, nuclear and defence sectors we’ve seen true innovation deliver real results. The core hand-picked team has grown, as has Unitive’s close long-standing network of trusted partners.
Unitive Design work with you from concept to product so together we can address today’s complex industrial and medical challenges.
