About Lorlin Electronics

Welcome to the Lorlin Electronics website

Lorlin began in 1961 and have always been based on the south coast of England.

We manufacture switches from simple on/off types to multi-circuit versions; many are unique designs which are only available from us.

We enjoy the challenge of a new product design and welcome the chance to meet with our customers and show them our production, research and test facilities.

If you can not see what you are looking for on the website, please contact us and we will be more than happy to help.

We always aim to manufacture our products to the highest standards and we consider many of them to be market leaders. Find out more about our quality system and our international product approvals in our quality and approvals sections.

There are also certificates and declarations relating to international social responsibility and care for our environment on the site and if you need something more specific, please let us know.
