About Tapeswitch

Tapeswitch designs and manufactures pressure-sensitive safety sensing products, including ribbon switches, sensing edges, safety mats, safety bumpers, the Dado Panic emergency alert system and fail-safe control units. Its switches are normally open: two parallel copper-plated conductors are separated by an insulating spacer, and pressure closes the circuit. A current-limited control unit then de-energises output relays.

Customers are businesses across a range of industries that need presence detection, impact detection or emergency stop functions for machinery, equipment and processes. The company supplies standard ranges and made-to-order or fully bespoke safety systems. Customers quoted on its website include Mallaghan GSE.

Tapeswitch was founded in 1990 and is headquartered in Chorley, United Kingdom, where it is registered as a limited company. The website states over 500 existing customers and over 50,000 products sold per year. Its team includes production, quality, health and safety, technical and sales roles.

Product: Pressure-sensitive ribbon switches, sensing edges, safety mats, safety bumpers, Dado Panic alert system and fail-safe control units, plus bespoke safety systems.
