The company’s own branded range of products consist of power supplies, amplifiers (set back, mast head and distribution amplifiers), splitters and combiners that have been designed and built primarily for domestic applications. The company sells these both to the trade and direct to market through its own e-commerce site as well as utilising the major online portals and via its highly successful catalogue.

In addition to this the business provides valuable sub-contract manufacturing services to customers applying its own modern automated electronics assembly facility here in the UK. It is regarded as an expert in the field of RF electronic technology.

The company has superb internal capabilities and quality management systems in place, so much so that it offers 3 years warranties on all of its own brand products that are manufactured in house. It owns the designs to these products.

As part of its continuous investment programme the company has recently received a letter of intent from the accreditation body that it will gain ISO9001 accreditation by early 2015. This should potentially open up even more markets for a new owner to target moving forward.
