What is a product development company?

A product development company turns an idea into a manufacturable, market-ready physical product. The work spans industrial design, mechanical and electronics engineering, embedded software, prototyping, regulatory testing, and manufacturing setup. Design 1st has provided full-service product development since 1996, helping startups, OEMs, and Fortune 500 companies launch hardware across consumer, industrial, medical, and IoT categories.

What does Design 1st do?

Design 1st is a North American product development firm headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. We specialize in custom design and engineering of useful, innovative physical products. Our 36-person in-house team covers technology research, industrial design, mechanical engineering, electronics engineering, embedded firmware, prototyping, regulatory and certifications, manufacturing setup, and supply strategy. Since 1996 we have developed more than a thousand real-world products.

How does Design 1st develop products?

Design 1st uses a refined four-stage process: Concept Design, Detailed Engineering, Product Prototype Testing, and Transfer to Manufacturer. The process has been developed over 25 years and more than a thousand products. It reduces time to market and lowers development cost by up to 50 percent. Risk identification and assessment is integrated at every stage so clients have good data to make decisions.

How long does product development take?

A typical hardware product development engagement runs 6 to 18 months from concept to manufacturing-ready, depending on complexity and regulatory requirements. Consumer electronics often complete in 8 to 12 months. Medical devices typically take 12 to 24 months due to regulatory testing. Design 1st phases work into Concept Design, Detailed Engineering, Prototype Testing, and Manufacturing Transfer.

How much does product development cost?

Hardware product development engagements at Design 1st range from approximately 50,000 dollars for early-stage prototyping to more than 500,000 dollars for full development of a connected consumer or medical product. The hourly rate is 165 dollars Canadian. Project cost depends on electronics complexity, regulatory scope including FCC, CE, and FDA, and the number of prototype iterations required.

Client GoldenEar Technology – Mass Market Success

27 Years Experience

75+ Design Awards

1,000+ Manufactured Products

From Idea to Prototype in as Little as Six Weeks!

Ready to Start?

GoldenEar Technologies has concluded their one year anniversary on a high note, picking up two more awards at the 2011 CEDIA EXPO in Indianapolis including the CEPro Best Electronic Technology award and the Residential Systems prestigious RESI award. Both awards recognized GoldenEar’s physical design, with the CEPro focusing on functionality and ease of installation while the RESI award concentrated on industrial design factors including products’ design aesthetics, user-friendliness and originality. These awards add to the 4 previous awards GoldenEar won in 2011 recognizing their high-performance Loudspeaker product line, providing further evidence that challenging economic times have not stifled creativity and innovation in manufacturing.

The GoldenEar product line has taken the Loudspeaker industry by storm since its launch at last year’s 2010 CEDIA EXPO in Atlanta. Catching the attention of the audio industry GoldenEar Technology received consistent praise from audiophile press having their loudspeaker products recognized by various industry awards – including 2 separate award wins at the 2011 CES (Consumer Electronic Show).

The success of GoldenEar’s product line has been built off the combined experience of founders Sandy & Gross & Don Givogue, who co-founded loudspeaker firm’s Polk Audio in the 1970’s and Definitive Technology in the 1990’s. GoldenEar’s goal when designing their new line of speakers was “to deliver more sonic superiority, with performance that is unequalled in competitors’ speakers selling for three, four or five times as much” – said Gross. This was accomplished through the audio engineering experience of their founder’s and the industrial design expertise of Design 1st’ product development team.

As one audiophile reviewer put it, “GoldenEar’s speakers aren’t just more branded boxes with drivers built in. These are audiophile speakers with uniquely engineered technology. They’re different than anything else on the market, and that alone makes them worth checking out.”

Molecule Wins 2020 Innovation of the Year

27 Years Experience

75+ Design Awards

1,000+ Manufactured Products

From Idea to Prototype in as Little as Six Weeks!

Ready to Start?

Congratulations to Design 1st client Molecule on winning ‘Innovation of the Year’ at the 2020 Irish Laboratory Awards. The award recognizes the unique properties of Molecule’s sponge-like nanomaterial in creating water from thin air.

Molecule chose Design 1st to help transform the material into a physical prototype for commercial testing. The video below describes the process:

The unique properties of the desiccant material were discovered by Molecule at The Bernal Institute at the University of Limerick: a world-class nanomaterial research laboratory. The key feature of the new desiccant replacement material is that it absorbs water just like the inorganic desiccants used today, but releases water at 120°F instead of 400°F. This provides existing commercial HVAC systems, the type found on top of buildings, to produce thousands of litres of water per hour.

A recent Fast Company article, highlights the potential of Molecule:

“The material can help HVAC systems save energy from pumping water around. Buildings consume around 40% of the yearly energy used in the U.S., and in-building HVAC systems are responsible for about half of the energy buildings consume.”

For comparison, energy consumed by US transportation accounts for 28% of total energy consumed each year. Therefore, Molecule’s potential energy savings for buildings is equivalent to taking all US gasoline cars off the road.

Molecule is now working with Design 1st to help accelerate the commercialization of the material. A large mall in Southern California may be the first pilot for the system.
