THE COMPANY

Minteos was founded in 2005 in Turin.

The company is focused in the development of applications based on the Wireless Sensor Network technology for monitoring and alerting on Environment and Industrial risks.

In the 2005 Minteos was admitted at I3P – Turin Politechnic incubator - and named « Best Wireless idea of the year – Torino Wireless ».

In 2008 Minteos owners decided to launch EnvEve in Lugano, Switzerland; EnvEve has been admitted at the « Tecnopolo di Lugano ».

Since the foundation, EnvEve and Minteos have continuously invested in research , and have completed industrial projects in Italy, Greece and Switzerland.

EnvEve e Minteos have build a consolidated distributor network in various countries (Nederland, Spain, Israel, Greece, Brasil, Iran).

Why it’s different and unique

What are the characteristics that make unique and advantageous our solutions and tecnologies compared to traditional systems :

Wireless: it doesn't requires wires, cables and power – it is a fast, economical and reliable installation

Low consumption solution: since it installed, lives and works without operation

Online system: from your computer, you can see the status of sensors positioned in the field and the history of their signal

Georeferenced: each sensor tells us exactly where something is happening

Proactive: when it reaches an alert level, it automatically notifies by SMS / phone / web that there is a danger or alarm situation

MARKET  SEGMENTATION  

APPLICATION’S  TARGET  MARKET  

Environmental  

Sustainability  

Industrial  Security  

Process  Efficiency  

Improvements   in   Process   Efficiency   can   reduce   the   need   for   investment   in   energy   infrastructure,   cut   fuel   costs,   increase   competitiveness  and  improve  consumer  welfare.  

ü 25%  commercial  building  energy  reduction  will  be  attributed  to  

WSN  in  2013,worth  $7.4  billion  in  global  energy  savings.  

Environmental   sustainability   is   of   great   importance   in   such   geographical   locations   in   the   world,   where   it   could   be   improved   through   sensor   monitoring,   by   protecting   valuable   resources,   and   collecting   valuable   information   previously   considered  too  difficult  and  too  costly.  

The   Industrial   Sector   is   likely   to   undergo   workflow   churn   as   WSN   applications   increase   safety,   reliability   and   efficiency   of   industrial   facilities.   Frequency   agility   requirements   are   driving   evolution  toward  industrial  standards
