This dependence exposes manufacturers to geopolitical risks, high price volatility and a significant environmental footprint.<\/p>\n

HIT Mag was born from 10 years of research and builds on this observation to develop a new value proposition that is high-performance, sovereign, environmentally responsible and economically viable.<\/p>\n

Our mission is to develop rare-earth-free magnets capable of exceeding industrial performance requirements while reducing the carbon footprint and securing strategic supply chains.<\/p>\n

We design a credible industrial alternative to traditional rare-earth-based magnets, developed to be produced locally and integrated into demanding applications.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#584549″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”100″ constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”100″ left_padding_desktop=”150″ constrain_group_2=”yes” right_padding_desktop=”150″ top_padding_tablet=”70″ constrain_group_3=”yes” bottom_padding_tablet=”70″ left_padding_tablet=”70″ constrain_group_4=”yes” right_padding_tablet=”70″ top_padding_phone=”40″ constrain_group_5=”yes” bottom_padding_phone=”40″ left_padding_phone=”40″ constrain_group_6=”yes” right_padding_phone=”40″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”15px” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” class=”row-center-1300″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column right_padding_desktop=”90″ right_padding_tablet=”0″ right_padding_phone=”0″ column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”advanced” content_layout=”default” gradient_type=”default” offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-12 vc_col-xs-12″][image_with_animation image_url=”52″ image_size=”full” max_width=”custom” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”15px” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width_custom=”600″ margin_bottom=”46″ margin_bottom_tablet=”35″ margin_bottom_phone=”30″][\/vc_column][vc_column bottom_padding_desktop=”0″ right_padding_desktop=”50″ bottom_padding_tablet=”40″ right_padding_tablet=”0″ bottom_padding_phone=”30″ right_padding_phone=”0″ column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”advanced” content_layout=”default” gradient_type=”default” offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-12 vc_col-xs-12″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1778002066037{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_class=”mx-mobile-auto txt-mg-not-rm h2-45-110-0-9″ max_width=”616″ text_direction=”default”]\n

An innovation in magnetic materials born from academic research<\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”50″ custom_height_tablet=”40″ custom_height_phone=”30″][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default” el_class=”mx-mobile-auto” max_width=”616″]HIT Mag was created within the University of Western Brittany, in connection with the Lab-STICC laboratory, which specializes in materials physics and technologies for communicating systems.<\/p>\n

Research conducted on magnetic materials has made it possible to develop new materials capable, in particular, of generating a magnetic field without using rare earths.<\/p>\n

This breakthrough paves the way for a new generation of rare-earth-free permanent magnets, compatible with the highest industrial requirements.<\/p>\n

The project has benefited from key support from SATT Ouest Valorisation, through maturation and co-maturation programs designed to transform a scientific innovation into a usable industrial solution.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_margin=”75″ bottom_margin=”150″ top_margin_tablet=”50″ bottom_margin_tablet=”90″ top_margin_phone=”30″ bottom_margin_phone=”60″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”center” tablet_text_alignment=”center” phone_text_alignment=”center” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” content_layout=”default” gradient_type=”default”][nectar_btn size=”large” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”default_arrow” text=”Contact us” url=”\/en\/contact-us\/”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” bottom_margin=”100″ bottom_margin_tablet=”45″ bottom_margin_phone=”30″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” id=”equipe” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”center” tablet_text_alignment=”center” phone_text_alignment=”center” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” content_layout=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”mx-auto mx-mobile-auto txt-mg-not-rm” max_width=”920″ text_direction=”default”]\n
