We’ve redesigned the box 1,000 times

From IoT sensors to mission-critical infrastructure

Hi AHR attendees! We’re SPARK Product Development and we’ve guided clients like Tridium, Honeywell, and Gridpoint through the transition from high-functioning metal box to beautiful, recognizable electronics and hardware enclosures. 

Today, that work spans everything from IoT sensors and thermostats to mission-critical enclosures for power generation and data center environments. We’ve designed systems ranging from palm-sized devices to enclosures the size of a tractor trailer, helping teams create attractive, ownable, smart enclosures, no matter the environment.

Do you need help elevating the look of your enclosures, creating a recognizable family of products, or designing enclosures for high-performance spaces?

Let’s talk

We’ve helped many major brands take their products into new territory with ease and success:

 

We have a great track record with companies who have been doing this a long time. (And we love working with other product development and engineering firms.)

We’re a full service product development firm, so we can either tap in where we’re most needed or take you all the way from start to finish.
