Saia-Burgess - Electronic and Electro-Mechanical Device Manufacturing

Gateshead-based Saia-Burgess is a global leader in the design and manufacture of cutting-edge electronic components.

From its UK plant on Team Valley, the company, which has its head office in Switzerland group has manufacturing facilities in, Switzerland, Germany, Hungary, Tunisia, China and the USA, manufacturers its vast portfolio of products.

ELECTRONIC COMPONENT MANUFACTURING

With an extensive portfolio that includes microswitches, push button, piezo, rocker and rotary switches, keylock switches, emergency push buttons, sensors, solenoids, timers, controllers, miniature motors and gear boxes, as well as the ability to design bespoke solutions, Saia Burgess still finds itself adapting its products and introducing new lines to stay ahead of the game.

By investing in advanced production equipment and techniques, the company can deliver the rapid response necessary to ensure swift progress from design and prototype to full-scale manufacture, which in turn helps its customers enter the marketplace more quickly.

ELECTRONIC AND ELECTRO-MECHANICAL CONTROL DEVICES

Saia-Burgess accredits its phenomenal growth and subsequent market leadership to the 1987 merger between the Burgess Microswitch company in Gateshead and SAIA of Switzerland, both of whom were forward-thinking enough to see that their products could be combined to satisfy the demand for electronic and electro-mechanical control devices on a much larger scale.

Since then, a number of high-profile acquisitions such as the motor manufacturer Stegmann in Germany and UK switch manufacturer Otehall, has extended the capabilities of the company and the solutions it can provide, and further boosted its global reputation.

Saia-Burgess prides itself on its ability to provide customised solutions to meet customers’ individual requirements, and works closely with some of the most famous names in car manufacture, domestic appliances, office machines and industrial automation.

It promises 'smart solutions for comfort and safety', and works closely with customers and distributors to help ensure the promise is met across the full range of standard and custom-developed products.
