Trig Avionics Limited was founded in January 2004. Our ambition is to provide the most innovative certified avionics products for aircraft owners & operators. With a global network of over 800 Approved Trig Dealers, in 42 countries our popularity continues.

Our Edinburgh operation saw expansion in 2018 with the addition of our European office in Amersfoort, in the Netherlands. This has enhanced our service to a growing community of pilots who appreciate our superior products & dedicated customer service. It’s all part of joining the Trig family.

Trig’s CEO &y Davis, who started Trig, is an entrepreneur & pilot. &y set out to produce a solid state & energy efficient Mode S transponder. A new generation of transponders were required to meet a European wide mandate for Mode S. At the time, aircraft owners had few options available, so &y & his team changed this. Our resulting TT31 transponder set a new benchmark in quality, capability & value.

Trig’s ‘Better by Design’ philosophy results in products that are simple to use, truly innovative & provide pilots with features that really matter. We have a strong commitment to helping our customers meet regulatory changes. We have a wide range of EASA & FAA approvals, these are used every day by pilots to get airborne – reducing the cost of compliance.

Trig is committed to providing great customer service through our Trig Service Centres in Europe, North America & Australia. We offer prompt & responsive support throughout the lifetime of every Trig product. This helps to underpin our great customer reputation & ensures our future business success, amongst those customers yet to discover Trig.

Trig is grateful for the support of Archangel Investors Limited, Scottish Enterprise & the Amersfoort Chamber of Commerce. Trig is a privately held limited company.

The innovation that we showcase in our products is testament to our understanding of aviation. When we produced the world’s smallest Mode S general aviation transponder, we thought it would be a bestseller. The transponder’s built in altitude encoder & compact components have allowed pilots to fly with fully compliant Mode S/ADS-B equipment where previously this was impossible.

Successes like these are based upon the skills of the Trig’s design & engineering team. Efficient software creation combined with engineering expertise results in unique, high performance avionics. Our lead in technologies such as ADS-B has put us at the forefront of the avionics industry. Interest from defence, surveillance & the commercial sector reflects the growing acknowledgement from others that Trig is an important source of avionics technology for tomorrow’s aviation needs.

Taking a product from design to delivery in the aviation sector is a tough challenge. The level of international approvals, certification & auditing involved is extremely comprehensive. As a company we aim to secure the most up to date & stringent certification standards, selecting the best suppliers who are ISO9001 & AS9100 approved.

This helps to explain our impressive track record of gaining certification for all our products. We have exacting in-house quality control mechanisms to ensure component traceability & the highest standards of procurement, manufacture & quality control throughout the entire design & manufacturing process. We are certified to EASA AP205 & NL.21G.2389 for production.

Our manufacturing takes place in the Netherlands. We have fully approved Part 21 Subpart G aviation manufacturing facilities. This allows us to ensure that at any stage of the process we can check, test & verify the necessary quality of our products.

Precision products are backed by our solid commitment to great customer service. We support customers through our established worldwide Approved Trig Dealer network. Customers can buy products & get advice from avionics experts who are knowledgeable dealers & installers.

On those rare occasions when a repair is required we pride ourselves on fixing & returning any faulty products within days. Our support network will usually provide an immediate ‘service exchange’ on faulty products, so you’re never grounded. Trig is a registered maintenance organisation (licensed to UK.145.01123 & NL.145.1389) that supports dealers & customers via our established in-house team.

Our Trig Support Team fields email enquiries & customer calls, varied in nature but always offering friendly & expert advice. Our reputation is vitally important to us, so it’s no surprise that customer service & customer satisfaction is a top Trig priority.
