About us
WHO WE ARE
OUR COMPANY
WEARTRONIC’s technology was conceived in 2013 by David Zieder.
It was born of the idea that the advanced techniques developed for the aeronautics industry could play a decisive role in the reliability and development of so-called intelligent textiles, i.e. those that incorporate electronics.
Since then, Weartronic has been working relentlessly to develop intelligent textile solutions that not only protect, but also help professionals working in harsh conditions to take their commitment to work to the next level.
The excellence of Weartronic’s technology has led us to be chosen as the partner of choice by some of the most cutting-edge organisations, such as those involved in rescue and defence. These include the Paris Fire Brigade, Sécurité Civile and the French Ministry of the Interior. Various intervention units such as the Compagnies Républicaines de Sécurité, the French Customs Service and the French Ministry of Defence have already placed their trust in us.

missions
& VALUES
Tomorrow's world will be even more perilous.
To face up to these challenges, security, rescue and military professionals will need to be even more committed to their missions.
Intelligent textiles will provide the protection they need to succeed, and the resources they need to push their commitment even further.
Reliability: our products are the only ones to have the technology to ensure that they work perfectly, even under the most severe conditions.
We are committed to the durability of our products.
Performance: we incorporate sophisticated electronic components that echo the physical performance of those who take to the field.
Commitment: commitment is our compass. The company’s history is based on this notion, which has driven our teams for over 10 years and guides the actions of our professionals in the field.
Social commitments: Weartronic promotes the economic integration of people who have been excluded from the labour market and refugees from armed conflicts.
Environmental commitments: we are working to develop an innovative method for separating electronics from textiles, in order to facilitate their recycling and develop their second life.
