Taoglas has completed the acquisition of Wireless Instruments (QuWireless), a specialist in high-performance antennas and antenna-enclosure systems for wireless communication devices.
Headquartered in Poland, QuWireless has built a strong reputation for antenna enclosure products that perform reliably in real-world outdoor installations and harsh conditions. The company develops ‘all-in-one’ integrated products that house routers directly within the antenna enclosure. These designs greatly simplify the antenna and router installation process for outdoor applications, with antenna enclosures available for all the major industrial router brands. The installer simply slots and secures the router into the antenna enclosure, leaving just one item to mount. With significantly less RF cabling now required, the installation can also improve signal strength and reliability in scenarios such as industrial sites, telecommunications network infrastructure, smart grids, transport systems, building rooftops, remote locations, and areas with limited network coverage.
Building on Taoglas’ capabilities in RF and antenna design, engineering, and global testing and certification, the addition of QuWireless’ antenna and enclosure expertise will enable faster development cycles and more predictable performance in the field. The combined portfolio further expands the range of supported devices, frequency bands, and form factors, giving customers greater flexibility when designing and deploying wireless systems.
The acquisition comes as demand grows for reliable wireless connectivity in outdoor, industrial, and remote environments, driven by the expansion of 5G, private networks, and IoT deployments.
“QuWireless gives us a really strong edge in how customers deploy connectivity in the field,” said Dermot O’Shea, CEO of Taoglas. “A lot of the challenge today isn’t just RF performance; it’s getting reliable and robust connectivity in place quickly, with controlled installation costs, especially outdoors. Their antenna enclosures take a lot of that complexity out and significantly decrease install time. When you combine that with our engineering capability and global reach, we can help customers deploy faster and get more consistent performance where it matters.”
“Our focus has always been on helping customers get stronger, more reliable connectivity, especially in locations where coverage is difficult,” said Michal Gorzad, QuWireless CEO. “Joining Taoglas allows us to bring those designs to a much broader market and integrate them with a wider range of RF technologies. It’s a natural fit, and it means we can deliver even better performance and flexibility for customers as their connectivity needs grow.”
As part of the agreement, QuWireless will operate as QuWireless, a Taoglas company, with its product portfolio initially continuing under the QuWireless brand. The team will remain in Poland, serving as a centre of excellence for antenna enclosure design, while working closely with Taoglas’ global engineering teams to support customers worldwide.
The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
