Smart technology for critical applications

The defence market demands robust, high-performance, and often groundbreaking technologies. We guide you in developing products and services that meet the highest standards, using cutting-edge technologies as a lever.

  • Additive manufacturing: For lightweight, complex components with high performance.
  • Metasurfaces: Design and application of intelligent surfaces with unique properties.
  • Composites: Materials tailored for extreme conditions.
  • Micro- & precision machining: For miniaturisation and accuracy where it truly matters.
  • Sensor & data fusion: Combine multiple data sources into reliable insights.
  • Material circularity: Sustainable choices that preserve quality, even when efficiently (re)deploying scarce materials such as rare earths.
  • AI, generative AI & agentic AI: Smart algorithms and artificial intelligence that make your systems autonomous and adaptive.

Defence-ready test labs

In defence, certainty is crucial. Your applications must continue to perform under pressure, in diverse and often extreme conditions. Sirris offers advanced testing infrastructure designed to deliver exactly that level of assurance.

  • Climate chambers: Test full-size vehicles or installations at real scale in temperatures ranging from -70°C to +180°C and humidity levels up to 98%.
  • Material & component testing: Simulate stress, impact, corrosion, and more.
  • Aging tests: Fast-forward through time and discover how your product performs in the long run.

Testing according to military norms and standards? Certainly. Our labs meet the required specifications.
