Knowles

- Kusukela ngo-1946 u-Knowles usize abaqambi ukuthi bathole izindlela eziningi zokubeka ubuchwepheshe obungcono ukusebenzela amakhasimende abo. U-Knowles ungumholi wemakethe kanye nomthengisi womhlaba wonke wezinto eziphambili ze-micro-acoustic, izingxenye ezikhethekile, nezixazululo zobuningi bomuntu ekukhulumisaneni kweselula, umthengi kagesi, ubuchwepheshe bezokwelapha, nezinye izimakethe zokugcina ezimbonini. Okuhlangenwe nakho okujulile kuka-Knowles nokuhlolwa okunamandla kuhlinzeka ngemikhiqizo enokwethenjelwa futhi enembile ehlanganisa izikhulumi nemikrofoni yemikhiqizo yezempilo ezwayo, ama-earphones omculo we-premium, ama-helmenssetsets kanye nezicelo ze-acoustic zezimboni. I-Knowles MEMS (ama-micro-electro-mechanical systems) ama-microphones kanye nezipikha ezincane zisetshenziselwa kabanzi kuma-smartphones, amaphilisi, izincwadi kanye nezinye izinto eziphathekayo.
Ezindaweni zase-Itasca, e-Illinois, futhi ezithengiswa esidlangalaleni kwi-NYSE ngaphansi kwesibonakaliso esithi "KN", u-Knowles unabasebenzi abangaphezu kuka-10 000 ezindaweni ezingu-37 emhlabeni jikelele kuhlanganisa izindawo zokuklama eYurophu, e-Asia naseNyakatho Melika. Zonke izindawo zokukhiqiza ziqinisekisiwe nge-ISO-9001, ezinye ziqinisekisiwe nge-ISO-14001 noma i-OHSAS-18001. I-Knowles Quality Management System iqinisekisa ukuklama, ubuqotho, ukukhiqiza okuphumelelayo kanye nezindleko eziphumelelayo ngesikhathi sokulethwa kwemikhiqizo yabo.
