What we do
We Cair.
We believe everyone’s life can be improved through innovative solutions and thoughtful design. That’s why we create Telecare and smart technologies that we would proudly use in our own homes. Our products are designed with everyone in mind; inclusive, practical, and focused on improving quality of life. We aim to make a real difference for every person who uses our equipment. Continuously striving for a better future, our talented and creative team works closely with customers to develop solutions that truly matter, driven by genuine care for people, the environment, and, of course, a mug or two of Yorkshire tea.
Made in Yorkshire
That’s right! All our products are designed, developed, and manufactured in Halifax. Our modern facility, conveniently located near the M62 in the heart of the UK, allows us to support customers wherever they are.

CAIR’ing for us all
Caring for the environment is a priority for everyone at Cair. We’re taking active steps to reduce our carbon footprint and improve our environmental performance. As part of this effort, we are working to eliminate all plastics from our packaging, designing devices for easy disassembly and using recyclable materials wherever possible. We’ve even developed our own range of eco-friendly cleaning products for use throughout our facilities. True to our ethos of technology-driven design, we’ve installed four electric car charging ports for staff and visitors and our factory roof hosts a 50kW solar panel array that supplies a portion of our energy needs, reducing reliance on the national grid.
