North East tech and energy firms collaborate on wireless charging product

Crable Tanfield Lea

A technology firm and energy procurement specialist have joined forces to power growth plans for a new mobile phone charging product. 

Crable and Sanctus Consulting, both based at Tanfield Lea Business Centre in Stanley, County Durham, are working together on the fully brandable wireless charging shelf.

The wall-mounted shelf, which can charge up to eight electrical appliances at once, provides both power and light to customers, and has been installed in premises ranging from hotels and hostels to coffee shops, international sports stadia, music venues, hospitals and car showrooms. 

From their shared base in County Durham, and via support from Business Durham, Crable has now opened an office at Tanfield Lea Business Centre. 

William McClelland, Managing Director and Founder of Crable, said: “I’m absolutely delighted to be able to join forces with an established local business like Sanctus Consulting. Martin and his team really know their market and importantly aren’t afraid to share their knowledge.

“The idea for our Crable charging shelves was conceived in the North East and we have done everything we can to employ the best local talent in design and engineering to get us to our launch of Crable in 2020. We are now proud to have all our manufacturing retained within the North East in County Durham.”
