Qidenus Technologies owes its success to a strong team of specialists in manufacturing, product design & development, marketing & sales that were able to establish a globally recognized Qidenus brand in just over a decade. This is no small achievement. We are planning to fuel this passion for technology and spirit of innovation by investing in Qidenus manufacturing facilities and cutting-edge R&D.”
