At Carallon, our technical expertise spans every stage of product development—from concept to manufacturing.

With decades of experience and a passion for precision, we partner with clients to create robust, scalable, and forward-thinking solutions engineered for everyday performance.

Product concept and solutions

We are committed to delivering full and forward-thinking solutions. We partner with you to bring concepts to life with precision and creativity.

With deep expertise in industrial and mechanical design, as well as extensive industry knowledge, every solution is robust, reliable, and ready for real-world application.

If you’re working towards a product certification or need to reach a specific compliance standard, we can support you.

We also act as incubation and investment partners, supporting early-stage concepts and helping visionary ideas grow into successful, scalable products.

 

Industrial design and mechanical engineering  

We understand that products designed with a clear purpose to fulfil the needs of your customers create long-lasting customer – brand relationships. With in-house industry experience spanning broadcast, theatre, concerts and architectural sectors, we have extensive first-hand knowledge of the requirements for products to perform well in production and harsh environments.

We leverage this experience alongside comprehensive end-to-end support, such as Design verification, Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (DFMEA). Our approach ensures that the look and feel and use of your product enhances your brand and that products are optimised to perform consistently out in the field.

Electronics and embedded development

We provide expert guidance on selecting the right processors and peripherals, ensuring your embedded solution is designed to optimise for both power and performance.

We have deep experience across the Linux ecosystem – from microcontrollers to full PC-based systems.

We specialise in:

  • Custom Linux development – tailored kernel and root filesystems
  • Lightweight and bare-metal embedded OS solutions
  • Embedded security – including cryptographic signing and secure boot.

Whether you need support building a prototype or scaling to production, we support you every step of the way.

Application software development

We’re industry-leading in delivering large-scale, networked, real-time control solutions.

Our expertise spans the full software stack – from backend architecture and networking to intuitive UI/UX design and web integration.

Whether you’re building for Windows, macOS, Linux or a mobile platform, we bring robust, scalable development capabilities to every aspect of your project.

We offer continued support including regular software updates to keep your system secure and up to date.

 

Quality assurance

We integrate Quality Assurance from the earliest stages of development. This proactive approach helps to identify issues early, reduce risk and deliver on the most reliable, highest performing solutions.

All our QA professionals are ISTQB certified, ensuring that from functional testing to performance validation your product meets the highest industry standards.

Manufacturing and sourcing 

We streamline operations and implement cost-effective sourcing strategies tailored to each customer’s commercial and geographical requirements.

Our services include technical assistance, supply chain management, quality control, and procurement planning—all designed to enhance manufacturing efficiency and competitiveness.

We identify and manage vendors for parts and materials, establish quality standards and inspection processes, and optimise product design for scalable, cost-effective production.

Depending on the project, we work with external manufacturers to ensure quality and timelines, or leverage Carallon’s internal manufacturing capability at our London facility, which includes full repair and spares provision.

Production engineering and compliance

Critical to the success of any new product are the decisions taken to evolve working prototype into finished product. With all key departments in-house, our production engineering process is fully integrated to efficiently deliver your product designs and processes ready for scalable manufacturing.

Our Production Engineering processes include developing and implementing production systems, streamlining workflows, ensuring rigorous quality control, and value engineering.

We have extensive experience in managing the process of EMC testing and of managing the process of safety certification to the relevant country-specific or international standards for your intended target markets.

 

We stand behind the solutions we deliver and we’re confident that they meet and even exceed expectations. But our commitment doesn’t end with delivery. We consider ourselves long-term partners for our clients and so offer full out-of-warranty support for all our products as standard, ensuring each product continues to perform for its full intended lifecycle.

 

When it came time for a major upgrade… they delivered something truly ground-breaking. It was a first for the industry.
