ENKOA

What ENKOA does

ENKOA is a Spanish technology company, founded in 1998 and headquartered in Mendaro, Gipuzkoa, that designs, develops, manufactures, and sells IoT-based smart electronic solutions for the responsible and efficient control of people, objects, and environments. The company operates four integrated product lines built on a common technology stack of 13.56MHz MIFARE RFID, 2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4 wireless communication, and proprietary sensors: iSWITCH (occupancy-based energy management systems for hotels, apartments, and offices), iLOCK (contactless electronic locks for lockers, furniture, and medication carts, including invisible CEM and standalone/wireless CET variants), iCOUNT (ultrasonic parking guidance and space management systems), and iSENSOR (smart wireless sensors). All product lines integrate through the iVIEW central monitoring software platform, enabling unified room, locker, and parking management.

The company serves a B2B enterprise customer base across hospitality, corporate offices, retail, energy, banking, telecommunications, government, and transport sectors, with deployments in more than 15 countries spanning Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and South America. Notable enterprise customers include Intercontinental Lisbon, Hilton, CEPSA (3,000+ locks), BNP Paribas (1,800+ locks), BP Budapest (2,000+ lockers), IKEA, Leroy Merlin, Schneider Electric, Metro Madrid, and Sagrada Familia. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales on a project-based, quote-driven basis, distributed via direct enterprise sales supplemented by regional implementation partners (e.g., Savills España) and the global distribution network of parent company ASSA ABLOY Group. ENKOA operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary within ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions AB, which provides brand credibility, quality infrastructure (ISO 9001), and international reach; the company reinvests in production capacity, R&D (with a March 2025 iSWITCH iTOUCH launch), and facility expansion per its 2016-2017 strategic plan that committed over €600,000 to equipment, warehousing, and new product development.
