Canatu Plc has started mass production and begun deliveries of sensors for electronic device protection to a global technology leader. Delivering the sensors demonstrates the versatility of Canatu carbon nanotubes (Canatu CNTs), highlighting their potential in specialized applications beyond the company’s current focus areas.

Canatu’s sensor is designed to detect unauthorized physical interference in systems that store or process sensitive information. These devices play a critical role in protecting data and maintaining system integrity.

Utilizing advanced technology, the sensor continuously monitors for physical interference. The device is connected to electronics that continuously monitor and respond to safeguard information. The product stands out for its unique combination of robustness and sensitivity, making it suitable for specialized applications.

The product supply agreement with a global technology leader includes deliveries scheduled from April 2025 to the third quarter of 2026, with corresponding revenue expected to be recognized over the same period. In line with Canatu’s disclosure policy, the agreement is considered of small (under €1 million) commercial value.

“This is an excellent example of the versatility of our carbon nanotubes, and how they can be tailored to meet highly specific and technically advanced needs. It also highlights the potential of our technology in new industries,” said Juha Kokkonen, CEO at Canatu.
