Deployables Cubed GmbH, based in Germering, Germany, specializes in advanced space engineering solutions, including patented Hold-Down Release Mechanisms and solar arrays, for aerospace applications. Founded in 2019 in Germering, Germany, Deployables Cubed GmbH focuses on developing innovative solutions for space missions. The company was established by Alexander Titz, Joram Gruber, Thomas Lund, and Thomas Sinn, with Thomas Sinn currently serving as CEO. In January 2021, the company raised an undisclosed amount of venture funding from High-Tech Gründerfonds and Interlink Ventures, marking their first significant investment round.

Deployables Cubed GmbH provides innovative space engineering solutions with patented Hold-Down Release Mechanisms (HDRM) and high-performance solar arrays. The HDRM secures delicate equipment during launch and safely releases it in orbit, addressing critical challenges in space missions. Their solar arrays offer various configurations, including body-mounted and origami structures, serving as turnkey power generation subsystems that enhance spacecraft performance while optimizing stowage for launch. The company caters to a diverse clientele, including satellite manufacturers and space exploration firms across North America, Europe, and Asia.

Deployables Cubed GmbH operates on a business-to-business (B2B) model, supplying products directly to aerospace companies and mission operators. Transactions are based on individual orders for specific products, such as HDRMs and solar arrays, tailored to client mission requirements. Pricing is determined by the complexity and specifications of each order, with a streamlined e-commerce purchasing process that allows for efficient transactions and shorter lead times compared to industry standards. Deployables Cubed GmbH aims to release new products designed to enhance their existing offerings.

The company is planning to expand into new markets, specifically targeting opportunities in Asia and North America by 2023. The recent funding received in January 2021 will support these initiatives, focusing on product development and market entry strategies, further solidifying their position in the global aerospace sector.
