Pushing the quality frontier from the lower regions of mediocrity to the cutting edge of what is technically possible – that has always been the trademark commitment of Commend. This is why Commend’s development laboratories are buzzing with activity all year round. Specialists for hardware, firmware and software development work hand-in-hand with each other to meet market demands and shape high-quality ‘Intercomware’ from initial ideas to finished products.

Where performance becomes audible
Where it says Commend, there's quality inside
Our production facilities in Salzburg (Austria) are the birthplace of the stuff that Intercom dreams are made of. Highly automated and clean production facilities ensure that millions of electronic components are brought together to create products that satisfy our clients’ demands and deliver excellent audio quality that makes their users prick up their ears. That this is much more than just a promotional claim is the result of our 100% double quality assurance test – spot-checks alone are simply not enough.- Each and every component is subjected to a fully electronic quality test procedure in a special test adapter.
- The second-level quality assurance test checks each device’s configuration, functions and audio quality.
