Our Values

The values, principles, and strategic ideas demonstrated by our founders have proven their worth. They form the basis of our group's guiding principles and underpin all our actions.

 

Our Roots

Since 1959, the Müller-BBM Group has been redefining the world of acoustics and continues to shape it today. At Müller-BBM Active Sound Technology, we harness this extensive knowledge and integrate it into everything we do – from agile work processes to our innovative products.

Since 2009, Müller-BBM AST has been an independent company. As a 100% subsidiary of the Müller-BBM Group, we enjoy the strong support of our parent company while maintaining the flexibility of a start-up.

Founded in 2009

Due to the growing interest of the automotive industry in ANC technologies, Müller-BBM Active Sound Technology GmbH was founded. What began as a small working group quickly developed into a powerful company where electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, computer scientists, physicists, sound designers, and acousticians work together to drive the future of active noise control and sound design.

 

Quality assurance

Our software development follows the strict requirements of the Automotive SPICE® standard. This guarantees the highest quality and reliability of our software solutions for the automotive industry. 

The declared aspiration and goal of Müller-BBM Active Sound Technology is to achieve qualitative market leadership in our products and services. We pursue this goal through a strategy that emphasizes competence, customer orientation, quality, independence, reliability, risk management, and innovation. 

The necessary processes and infrastructure are documented in a functional management system that is regularly evaluated and updated—particularly to keep pace with the constantly changing environment. This is evidenced, among other things, by the continuous certification of our quality management system in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001:2015.
