For civil applications, an integrated access and switching product has been developed to be used for geographical distributed multimedia applications - SmartSwitch. This product has been installed for the German- and Dutch Railways for their nation-wide network.

Thales designs, manufactures and sells state-of-the-art electro-optical components and (sub) systems for defence and OEM use. The company supplies system integrators and end-users all over the world. Our activities include opto-mechanical and electro-optical (sub)systems and products. These are e.g. night vision systems (image intensifier), thermal infrared cameras, advanced CCD cameras for observation, tracking and aiming applications, and head-mounted display subsystems for both soldier and pilot applications. The company also supplies observation and aiming cupola's for armoured vehicles. Thales has a wide experience in observation and aiming systems for both the individual soldier and platforms (vehicles, naval and airborne).

In September 2006, Thales in the Netherlands opened its Battlespace Transformation Centre - BTC. The new Transformation & Integration Centre - TIC of the Land & Joint Systems Division in Huizen together with the TIC in Hengelo have joined the Thales collaborative centres of expertise in France, United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, Greece and Singapore.

The BTC offers the possibility to exercise the process of Concept, Development & Experimentation in the world of Network Enabled Capabilities.  Within BTC, policy and practice are brought closer in order to identify potential goals, detect and analyse risks and explore migration paths.

By combining operational analysis, system engineering and architectures with extensive Battlelab facilities, all parties to transformation are working together to identify and evaluate transformation options and therefore provide a smooth and affordable transition from legacy to Network Enabled Capabilities.

Furthermore, Thales in Huizen represents the Thales Group’s portfolio in the Netherlands. Thales has delivered satellite, radio direction finding and navigation aids and propagation prediction systems, always keeping a close track of the latest developments and maintaining a high level of expertise. Thales also participates in offset projects.

Our company obtained the international quality certificates ISO-9001:2000 /ISO-14001:1994/AQAP-2110/150 and IPC/EIA J-STD-001C, as well as CMMi level 2 for programs and process development.
