The CTL patented technology aims at optimising performance, safety and comfort whilst considerably reducing energy consumption.

The technology developed by CTL allows the design of products that are not only cost effective and aesthetically pleasing but also much lighter in weight and smaller.

The CTL Kick-Drive mechanism is a design, which exploits the basic laws of physics to provide the energy needed to accelerate an object from rest to the required speed with maximum efficiency. This advantage allows actuators to be powered by a much smaller motor and yet maintain the same performance.

The CTL Single Motor, Universal Latch is another unique design based on the CTL technology. This design not only reduces the size and cost of such devices but also makes it possible, with minor modifications, to retrofit the latch into any existing car model. This considerable advantage allows the carmakers to offer their customers tomorrow's technology today. More importantly and without having to spend millions of dollars, it reduces the time to market for such a product from 2-3 years to less than 6 months.


The CTL achievements in technology extend into the field of electronic design and control. One of the significant developments introduced by CTL is the patented Failsafe Control Electronics for safety critical systems. This is a major advancement in safety control technology as it eliminates the risk of accidental actuations. The advantages brought about by the CTL technologies have encouraged many customers around the world to adopt the innovative designs of CTL.
