Wingtra is now also gaining a foothold in Taiwan. Its new sales partner Century Instruments now also offers the vertical take-off flying robots of the manufacturer from the Greater Zurich Area. They have been specially developed for aerial surveying and mapping in the construction industry.
Wingtra continues to expand: as the Zurich-based manufacturer of mapping drones announces, it can now also tap into the market potential in Taiwan with its new distribution partner Century Instruments. Based in Taichung City, Taiwan, the company has been focusing on its country’s surveying market for 30 years. According to a company statement, it now offers Wingtra’s drones in addition to expert advice and top-notch equipment.
The high-precision, vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) drones, which are easy to operate, specialise in GIS, the geographic information system for mapping technology. They were developed by the company, founded in 2016 as a spin-off of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich(ETH), specifically for aerial surveying and mapping in the construction industry.
The Wingtra drones provide consistent, high-quality survey data faster and at lower cost than other surveying tools, even for large areas and with high resolution and accuracy, Wyss Zurich says. The foundation supports Wingtra and other translational projects at ETH and the University of Zurich.
In June and July this year, Wingtra has already announced the establishment of business relationships with two new distribution partners in Mexico and a company in Canada. One of its investors, Seattle-based venture capital firm DiamondStream Partners, had announced in March 2023, following the successful completion of a $22 million Series B financing round, that it would support Wingtra as it enters new markets on the North and South American continents.
