Alova is the health-headphone R&D and manufacturing brand of Shenzhen Alex Technology Co., Ltd., based in Shenzhen, China. With open-ear acoustics at its core, Alova helps global brands develop high-quality health headphones through OEM/ODM and technology partnerships.
Originally published with our 2025 brand identity update. Revised on September 22, 2026 to reflect our current positioning, mission and development direction.
From a visual identity to a clear business direction
The Alova name connects our experience in open-ear audio with a focused direction in health headphones. Bone conduction hearing solutions are a priority within that direction. Open-ear audio and hearing support share engineering foundations, while each product needs its own user requirements and validation.
Our role is to empower partner brands through product development and manufacturing. We focus on B2B cooperation rather than building a competing direct-to-consumer retail business.
Our company and manufacturing entity
Alova is the health-headphone development and manufacturing brand of Shenzhen Alex Technology Co., Ltd.. Its subsidiary, Shenzhen Intelligent Xiaoboshi Technology Co., Ltd., is responsible for manufacturing. The subsidiary name is rendered in English here; the original Chinese certificates and patent records govern entity verification.
The manufacturing subsidiary holds China Medical Device Manufacturing Licence 粤药监械生产许20266055号, with the stated scope of Class II rehabilitation medical devices (category 19), valid from May 13, 2026 to May 12, 2031. It is also the registrant for the F2Y bone conduction hearing aid under China Class II Medical Device Registration Certificate 粤械注准20262190462, valid from May 6, 2026 to May 5, 2031. These details were checked against company-provided documents issued by the Guangdong Medical Products Administration on September 22, 2026.
The F2Y registration is model-specific and does not extend to every Alova product or establish authorization in other markets. Product indications and fitting requirements follow the registered documentation.
The parent company is named in Chinese utility model CN221487893U, “Bone conduction hearing aid with adjustable gain”, granted August 6, 2024. The public record uses the translated assignee name “Shenzhen Alex Communication Co ltd”. This utility model is separate from the subsidiary’s design patents.
Public patent records also identify Shenzhen Intelligent Xiaoboshi Technology Co., Ltd. as the applicant for the F10 hearing-aid design (CN309577228S) and F8 hearing-transmitter design (CN309163302S). These are design patents, separate from medical-device registrations and technical invention patents. Current ownership and legal status remain subject to official patent records.

Our company profile also explains the company-supplied US registration and listing documentation, including its scope and verification limits. Registration and listing are separate from patents and product clearance.
Our mission: make China’s health headphones renowned worldwide
Make China’s intelligently manufactured health headphones renowned worldwide.
To support this mission, each project should begin with a real listening need, develop an appropriate acoustic and wearable solution, validate the experience and prepare it for repeatable production. A successful partnership should support the customer’s product roadmap as well as the first delivery.
Our vision: empower global brands
Empower global brands to build high-quality health headphones.
This vision means helping global brands turn real health-audio needs into validated, production-ready products through responsible development, manufacturing and long-term cooperation.
The values behind our decisions
Our values: Stay committed to the long term, start with users’ health, and create truly valuable products through continuous learning and innovation.
- Long-term commitment: Make decisions for durable quality, capability and customer trust rather than short-term gain.
- Users’ health first: Begin product decisions with users’ health, comfort and practical listening needs.
- Continuous learning: Improve through evidence, customer feedback and shared engineering experience.
- Valuable innovation: Use continuous innovation to create products that deliver real, verifiable value.
Where our product development is heading
Our development priorities connect three areas:
- Bone conduction hearing support: Deepen acoustic performance, wearable comfort and age-friendly operation within product-specific requirements.
- Open-ear health audio: Apply bone conduction and open-ear air conduction expertise to everyday listening and communication.
- Connected home listening: Develop cooperation between personal listening devices, TV transmitters and remote microphones to address shared household listening needs.
AI-assisted audio and intelligent interaction are areas for continued exploration. Future features will be introduced according to validation and product readiness. These priorities describe our direction; they do not mean that every capability is available in every current model.
What this means for OEM/ODM partners
We aim to help brands build a coherent product range, with opportunities to reuse validated platforms, engineering knowledge and development work across suitable projects. This supports a longer-term relationship from product definition and acoustic development to wearable design, quality planning and manufacturing.
Project scope, intellectual-property arrangements, validation requirements and delivery schedules are agreed for each programme. Hearing-aid classification, medical claims and market access must be checked for the specific device and destination; the term health headphones does not make every product a medical device.
