Membrane keypads and switches

Membrane switches have always been the technology of choice for heavy-duty environments that require a high level of robustness. 

Membrane keypads can be made perfectly dust and watertight and resistant to chemicals and other forms of pollution, which make them ideally suited for outdoor and industrial environments. 

Membrane switch keypads are also easy to clean, enabling maximum hygiene for medical and pharmaceutical applications such as hospitals and cleanrooms. As a membrane switch manufacturer, Kaike Technology offers a wide range of high-quality finishing options, including soft-touch keypads or a brushed steel look.

Membrane touch switches: versatile and future-proof

Although membrane switches have been around for many years, they have proven to be very versatile and easily adaptable to new technology. As a membrane switch and keypad manufacturer, Kaike Electronics offers a wide range of modern features. This includes wireless connection via printed NFC, BLE or WiFi antennas, seamless integration of capacitive touch sensing and visual feedback for users through the integration of LEDs and or electroluminescence.
