Wasp Ltd

Wessex Advanced Switching Products Limited (WASP) is a specialist electronics / engineering company based on the south coast of the UK. The company was formed in 1974 and today employs around 100 people with a turnover of almost $14M. The company's initial aim was to design and manufacture a range of customised rotary switches for use in professional applications including military communications. Following on from the success with rotary switches WASP moved on to developed a range of custom designed membrane switches, specialist keypads and touch screens, again for use in professional applications including defence, medical, food production and the aviation industry. Our success in our chosen specialist marketplaces is based on our engineering skills and experience, and our ability to work closely with our customers to develop highly engineered, customised solutions to meet their specific requirements. In addition, the quality and reliability of our products are key to the company's success. Many of our products are 100% tested at several stages during their production cycle to ensure their total quality and reliability when deployed in the field. In addition to our engineering and manufacturing skills and expertise, WASP also offers a full Qualification and Certification service for products used in the aviation industry. The company offers qualification of products to Boeing and Airbus standards including RTCA DO-160, D6-36440 and ABD0100 amongst others.
