Industrial design has been at the core of our practice for over 30 years. We support clients across industries – B2B, B2C, and medtech – through the entire development process, from early exploration to production-ready design. Our teams combine industrial designers and design engineers, ensuring that ideas are both visionary and manufacturable. The real value often lies in revealing hidden needs and transforming them into solutions that feel intuitive and compelling – this is where the design magic happens. With deep knowledge of materials, colours, production methods, trends, and sustainability, we help shape products that are relevant, feasible and built to last. By integrating with client teams, we strengthen internal development and support long-term innovation goals.

We support companies in shaping circular design strategies that are practical, relevant, and aligned with sustainability goals. With experience across industries, we work closely with R&D, commerce, and sustainability teams to embed circular thinking into daily processes. Our approach builds on deep knowledge of materials, production, supply chains, and user needs. Together, we identify opportunities, define priorities, and establish the structures needed to turn ambition into action. Whether you’re adapting existing products or rethinking your business model, we help you navigate key decisions, test ideas early, and build lasting capabilities. Together, we make circularity tangible – so it informs real decisions and creates long-term value.
At Zenit, every project begins with design research. We help organisations rethink their brief by exploring the full context – technology, market logic, user needs, and sustainability. Whether for a product or a service, we start by asking why, even if you believe you already know what's needed. Through interviews, observations, and field studies, we uncover clear insights as well as hidden needs, unspoken desires, and untapped opportunities. Our design research adds real-world value to your customer insights efforts by grounding decisions in actual user behaviour and lived experience. User involvement doesn’t stop there – dialogue and testing with users continue throughout development. We help define a minimum viable product or service that can be tested early – before major investments are made.
With extensive experience in strategic consulting, we help our clients develop design strategies that maximize the impact of their design efforts (on organizational success). A well-defined design strategy, fully aligned with your brand's overarching business goals, enables you to navigate the marketplace more effectively and adapt quickly to the evolving needs of your target audience. We work with you to craft a strategy and create the tools needed to implement it in a way that’s best suited to your company’s structure and objectives. Whether you need a comprehensive design framework or support at an organizational and educational level, we tailor our approach to match your organization’s design maturity and specific requirements.
We help organisations create meaningful services by designing with users – not just for them. Grounded in design research, we uncover actionable insights that shape user journeys, service blueprints, and concrete touch-points. Our approach is holistic and evidence-based, aligning user needs with organisational goals across systems. We support clients in transitioning from products to services – unlocking new value through servitization – and apply service design as a key enabler of circular solutions that extend lifecycles and reduce waste.
We help organisations navigate complex transformations by facilitating decision-making and idea generation at all levels. Our hands-on approach ensures that change is not only strategic but actionable, with a clear focus on the bigger picture. Through tailored workshops and collaborative processes, we empower teams to break down barriers, build consensus, and make informed decisions. We drive transformation by aligning people and systems with long-term goals, while ensuring that every step leads to relevant, sustainable outcomes. With a blend of strategic oversight and practical execution, we guide organisations through the entire change process, from ideation to implementation.
We create intuitive digital experiences that work across contexts – whether on mobile, desktop, embedded, or digi-physical interfaces. From early research to implementation, we combine strategic UX and clear UI to support real-world use. Our process includes prototyping and testing to ensure relevance, usability, and simplicity. We collaborate closely with in-house developers and product teams to align on technical constraints, ensure smooth handovers, and make sure designs are buildable from the start. Whether you’re shaping a connected product or a digital service, we tailor solutions to your organisation’s structure, audience, and future needs – helping you deliver user journeys that are both effective and feasible.
We have extensive experience in medtech design, with a strong track record of delivering user-centered solutions across a wide range of medical devices and systems. Our deep understanding of regulatory requirements – including MDR, FDA, and IEC – ensures compliance is built into the design process from the beginning. We collaborate closely with clients from early design research and concept development through to detailed design, verification, and manufacturing handover. Medtech solutions often involve multiple users, complex systems, and high demands on safety and clarity. By combining design, engineering, and Human Factors expertise, we create intuitive products that meet both professional and patient needs – whether for a startup’s first device or a global company’s next-generation platform.
We develop mechanical solutions that take ideas from early concepts to production-ready designs. With experience ranging from compact electronics to complex machinery, our engineers work closely with industrial designers to ensure that the integrity of the concept is maintained through technical development. Prototyping and small-series production are integrated parts of our process, allowing early evaluation and refinement. Our focus is on functionality, manufacturability, and efficient implementation – grounded in real production conditions. A well-established network of partners supports us in prototyping, tooling, and production. We typically work as an external development partner, but can also integrate into in-house teams to strengthen capacity and accelerate progress.
