He continued: "We already have on board a number of delighted customers and we are confident that this service will be useful to many more of our existing customers as well as anyone requiring high integrity housing and keypad products." The company's website, at www.customKeypads.co.uk is a perfect starting point for anyone looking for membrane keypad solutions, or for those seeking a resource optimisation exercise on existing products.
