There’s more to Omron relays than meets the eye…

Although relays are often viewed as rather basic elements, their role is crucial to the trouble-free running of a plant and the technology behind them is far from simple. Omron has been designing and manufacturing relays for well over 50 years and has grown to become the world’s largest single-brand relay manufacturer. We are constantly innovating and looking for market trends such as hybrid car battery switching.

We produce in excess of 800 million relays a year managed by our state-of-the-art facility in Japan, which is large enough to cover 30 football fields. Approximately 7,000 employees (from our entire workforce of 36,000) are active within the area of relays at five dedicated production centres, including Kumamoto, which is our main production plant and headquarters. The outstanding performance of our relays is the result of careful design considerations and our complete commitment to quality.
