Helping companies to develop their products - from first idea to production
Turning ambitious ideas into real products
Dassen Industrial Design (Dassen-ID) transforms ambitious ideas into functional, manufacturable products.
Combining industrial design with engineering expertise, I support startups, tech companies, and innovation-driven teams through every stage of product development, from concept creation and prototyping to production-ready solutions.
Battery M150
For Greeny Energy, I worked on the development of a modular energy storage system designed to give batteries from electric vehicles and other applications a second life. By reusing these batteries, premature waste is reduced while maximizing the value of existing raw materials.
Wall tile
This sustainable wall tile was developed in collaboration with Bambooder B.V.. The tile is made from short bamboo fibers embedded in a polymer matrix, combining natural fibers with a durable composite structure.
The project supports Bambooder’s mission to apply biobased materials in practical, scalable products and demonstrates how bamboo-based composites can be used in architectural applications.
Boulton Eyewear
Boulton Eyewear was a startup I co-founded focused on creating custom-fit glasses using digital technology. Customers’ faces were captured through smartphone-based 3D scanning, allowing frame designs to be precisely adapted to individual facial geometry. Each frame was produced on demand using professional 3D printing and finished by hand with custom lenses and personalized details.
Industrial Design & Mechanical Engineering
Combining creativity and technical expertise to develop products ready for manufacturing.
Why
Dassen Industrial Design
More Than Engineering
Successful products require more than technical functionality. At Dassen Industrial Design, engineering is combined with industrial design thinking to create products that are not only functional, but also well-considered in form, usability, manufacturing and cost.
Each project is approached holistically: from concept and user interaction to mechanical design, production methods, assembly, and scalability.
The goal is always the same: to develop a product that works technically, commercially, and practically in the real world.
A Collaborative Approach
The best products are created through collaboration. Your team brings deep knowledge about the market, the application, and your customers. I bring an independent perspective, broad product development experience, and a structured design and engineering process.
By combining these strengths, we can move efficiently from idea to a robust and manufacturable product.
Experience Across Industries
Over the years, I have worked on a wide range of projects. From early-stage startups to complex engineering challenges in high-tech environments.
My experience spans industries such as renewable energy, industrial equipment, mobility, and advanced manufacturing. This diversity allows me to quickly understand new technologies and translate them into practical product solutions.
