Knowles

- Ukususela ngo-1946 u-Knowles uncedise abaqulunqi ukuba bafumane iindlela ezininzi zokubeka iteknoloji engcono yokusebenzela abathengi babo. U-Knowles ungumlawuli weemarike kunye nomthengisi wehlabathi jikelele wezinto eziphambili ze-acoustic, izixhobo ezizodwa, kunye nezixazululo zobuntu kwiinkcukacha eziphathekayo, i-electronics yomthengi, iteknoloji yezobugcisa kunye nezinye iimarike zokuphela kwezezimboni. Amava anzulu ama-Knowles kunye nokuvavanya ngokukhawuleza kunika iimveliso ezinokuthenjwa kwaye zichanekileyo ezibandakanya iintetho kunye nemikrofoni yeemveliso zezempilo ezivayo, ii-earphone zomculo, iifowuni zezonxibelelwano kunye nezicelo ze-acoustic zezimboni. I-Knowles MEMS (ii-micro-electro-mechanical systems) ii-microphones kunye nezikhulu-zithethi zisetyenziswa kakhulu kwii-smartphone, iipilisi, iincwadi kunye nezinye iifowuni eziphathekayo.
Ekwase-Itasca, e-Illinois, kunye nokuthengiswa esidlangalaleni kwi-NYSE phantsi kwesimboli "KN", u-Knowles unabasebenzi abangaphezu kwama-10,000 kwiindawo ezingama-37 emhlabeni jikelele kubandakanya amaziko okuyila eYurophu, e-Asia naseMntla Melika. Zonke izakhiwo zokuvelisa ziyi-ISO-9001 eziqinisekisiweyo, ezinye ziqinisekisiwe kwi-ISO-14001 okanye i-OHSAS-18001. I-Knowles Quality Management System iqinisekisa ukuyila, intembeko, ukuvelisa ngokufanelekileyo kunye neendleko ezifanelekileyo ngexesha lokuhanjiswa kwemveliso yazo.
