Digital product passports: what EU sellers need to know
The EU's product passport registry went live in July 2026 and batteries need passports from February 2027. What a passport is, who needs one, and when.
Manufacturing
Keeping the systems behind the production line running.
In manufacturing, IT failure is measured in stopped output. We build and operate infrastructure that accounts for plant-floor realities: long equipment lifecycles, patchy connectivity, and no tolerance for unplanned stoppages.
The challenges
What holds manufacturing back online.
01
Equipment outlives the IT around it
Machinery runs for decades; the servers and networks supporting it do not. We plan refreshes that do not require replacing the plant.
02
Site connectivity is fragile
Factory environments are hostile to networks. We design segmentation and resilience that survives the shop floor.
03
Downtime has an hourly cost
Maintenance has to fit production schedules. We work to your windows, not ours.
How we help
What we deliver for you.
Infrastructure sized and documented, so capacity decisions stop being guesswork
Monitoring that finds problems before users report them
Backup and recovery that has actually been tested, not just configured
One partner across every layer, instead of four suppliers blaming each other

FAQ
Manufacturing — common questions.
Do you work across multiple sites?+
Yes. Multi-site estates are common in manufacturing, and consistent build standards across sites are usually the first thing worth fixing.
Can you support older operating systems?+
Often, though we will be honest about the risk. Where a system cannot be upgraded, isolating it properly is usually the realistic answer.
