Catania Product Development, a Melbourne-based company offering product design and engineering services, has announced its expansion to the offices of the Prototype Lab located on Irwin St., next to Groundswell Startups on Florida’s Space Coast. The Prototype Lab, which Catania serves as a founding partner, will provide industrial additive manufacturing, laser cutting/engraving, media blasting, and electronics testing capabilities. With this new capacity, Catania will continue to deliver an exceptional user experience and some of the most efficient products on the market through utilizing this advanced technology.
According to Raymond Catania, CTO of Catania Product Development, this lab will bring a new set of advancements for the local community; he said, This lab will be a game-changer for innovation on the Space Coast, providing avenues to make amazing products faster, and more affordably. Since starting operations in April, Catania’s expansion at the Prototype Lab has already facilitated the production of a proof of concept for its client SwiftPaws in a matter of days, saving critical time and resources to provide a quicker time to market. Before the Prototype Lab, this process would typically have taken several weeks.
During the grand opening ceremony of the Prototype Lab, Groundswell CEO Jarin Eisenberg hailed Catania as a company that operates with an incredible amount of integrity. She said, This opening is also about their company expanding and growing their presence along with us. The mission of the Prototype Lab at Groundswell Startups is to break down barriers to bringing new technologies to market by helping founders access the expertise and equipment they need to quickly prototype, iterate, and scale. The lab includes printing capabilities, circuit board assembly and testing tools, and design services.
Catania’s commitment to providing cutting-edge technology to the local community via the Prototype Lab is an effort to give back to a community that has given it so much. Through this expansion, Catania is taking a step closer to achieving its vision of delivering innovative product designs and engineering services that revolutionize the market.
