Tana Labs is a hardware product design consultancy in Edinburgh, Scotland that focuses on building beautiful, functional products

What we do

  • Product Strategy defines the crucial "what" and "why" behind your hardware product's success. We work with you to analyze market opportunities, define user needs, and create a robust, feasible roadmap. This ensures that every engineering and design decision is aligned with your business goals, resulting in a product that achieves a competitive advantage and a strong return on investment.

  • Consulting at TanaLabs provides expert guidance throughout your entire hardware development lifecycle. Whether you need a technical feasibility study, project management oversight, or risk mitigation planning, our experienced team offers objective insights to address critical challenges. We help streamline processes, accelerate time-to-market, and make informed strategic decisions to minimize costly errors.

  • Our Industrial Design team focuses on creating hardware that is not only functional but also beautiful, ergonomic, and a pleasure to use. We combine aesthetics with engineering realities to develop compelling product forms, intuitive user interfaces, and sustainable material selections. This human-centered approach ensures the final product resonates with consumers and reinforces your brand identity.

  • Firmware is the specialized software that brings your hardware to life. We develop robust, efficient, and secure embedded code to manage your product's core functions, from low-level drivers to complex logic and connectivity protocols. Our expertise ensures reliable performance, optimal power consumption, and seamless integration with the electrical components and cloud services, forming the backbone of your smart device.

  • Our Electrical Engineering services cover the full spectrum of hardware design, from schematic capture and PCB layout to prototyping and compliance testing. We specialize in complex system architecture, power management, sensor integration, and radio-frequency (RF) design. This rigorous engineering approach guarantees a stable, manufacturable, and regulatory-compliant product ready for mass production.

  • Our Mechanical Engineering service is dedicated to ensuring the perfect physical realization and reliable performance of your product. We cover every detail from complex Solidworks CAD modeling and detailed tolerance analysis to rigorous stress testing and the strategic selection of appropriate materials and manufacturing processes.

  • Offshore Manufacturing and ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) Selection is a critical service that bridges product development and mass production. We leverage our global network to identify, vet, and manage reliable manufacturing partners, whether you require a contract manufacturer or a full-service ODM. Our focus is on strategic sourcing, negotiating favorable terms, conducting thorough factory audits, and managing the entire production ramp-up to ensure quality control, cost-effectiveness, and timely delivery of your final product.

Tana Labs was founded to bridge the gap between ambitious product ideas and the deep technical work needed to make them real. Too many projects stall because embedded development is treated as an afterthought. We believe it should lead.

Based in Edinburgh, we work with startups, established manufacturers, and R&D teams across the UK and Europe. Our focus is on getting complex systems working reliably—not on flashy demos that fall apart in production.
