Electronic Touch Systems has supplied membrane keypad solutions and ancillary products to the South African electronics industry for nearly two decades. The locally manufactured products on display at the show will include membrane switches, overlays, control panels, instrument panels, labels, dials and domes.
Having been founded in 1990 by Irish expatriate Tony Ellis, the company has grown from strength to strength ever since, and looks forward to celebrating its vital position in the industry with its 20th anniversary this year. The success of the company is attributed to personal customer attention, quality control and service, which has made the company a leader in its industry.
From humble beginnings in Albertville, Johannesburg, the company grew steadily until the premises simply were not large enough to contain its burgeoning production facilities. After a short-lived move to temporary premises in Albertskroon, in 1992 the company bought premises in Northcliff, which today houses its printing, assembly and die-cutting operations on three separate floors and an administration department on the top floor.
Although best known for its membrane keypads, the company actually started business reproducing photographic materials for the silk screen printing industry. Noticing a gap in the market place and with increasing confidence in its production capabilities, Electronic Touch Systems began manufacturing polycarbonate labels, followed shortly afterwards by its range of membrane keypads. The product range has since expanded still further to include integration of LEDs into keypads, as well as supply of domed badges.
Quality is something to which the company certainly does not simply pay lip service. Each and every button on each and every keypad that is manufactured is manually tested before being dispatched, which has paid dividends over the years as the company has received numerous SASPA and CBI awards for quality and zero defects.
Electronic Touch Systems can be found on stand C5.
