Everyone and everything is always connected. We measure and track every conscious and unconscious move we make and access the results and trends on our smartphones. With fitness trackers, smartwatches and even smart rings, no data is lost – if they work as promised.
Usability and design are major aspects of wearable devices, as some are worn around the clock. Earbuds have to withstand any weather conditions, sweat, perfume, and sun cream, as do fitness watches. Sleep tracking rings go wherever we go and must be both shock resistant and small enough for delicate hands.
Wearing our electronics on our wrists or fingers poses engineering and component size challenges that we at tesa are joining with our adhesive solutions to make wearables more life-integrable than ever.
Robust wearables: adhesive tapes for reliable strength
We are what we wear; this is especially true for wearable electronics. Their small size and lightweight leave little space for what holds them together and all the different components they fit. Miniature microphones, loudspeakers, sensors, buttons, and wireless connectivity are essentials for devices that are made to shake and move.
Batteries are especially demanding, as their size determines their capacity. Our elaborate adhesive solutions allow removability for replacement and recycling – an advantage for eco- and cost-conscious manufacturers. The very thin, feather-light design of these highly complex and sensitive devices is made possible by the small bonding lines of our single- and double-sided adhesives. They keep all modules in their place, sealing off dust, sweat, and other environmental influences.
Sports electronics are a particular challenge, as rough handling and frequent impact are daily risks. With tesa® tapes, you get the shock resistance you need without compromising on looks or function.
Key products for your wearables requirements
Reliable mounting, grounding, and covering are the three components that make our tesa® adhesive tapes a success for users. To achieve this, we at tesa strive to develop versatile and durable bonding solutions for the growing market of everyday electronic consumer products that withstand even the harshest conditions.
