VIL prides itself on it’s commitment to constant Research and Development projects within it’s office and laboratory base here in Rugby.

This includes research into both VI technology and performance as well as the switching function itself, along with new manufacturing and test technologies essential for VI manufacture.

VIL then applies it’s knowledge in these areas to the development of new designs of VI, new improved manufacturing processes and in the design and supply of state of the art Special Electrical Processing, Inspection and Test (EPIT) equipment, essential to the VI Manufacturing process and the attainment of the highest quality products and procedures.

In late 2010 as part of it’s long term R&D Strategy, VIL expanded it’s premises to include a new laboratory with enhanced facilities.
