The company was founded in London in 1907. The brand name was Certus. Only a few units were produced, and production ended in 1908.

The smaller model used a two-cylinder engine. A larger model was propelled by a 4-cylinder engine from Aster with a displacement of 3000 cm³. The distinguishing feature of both models was the use of a friction drive.
