Bulgins Ethos
Borne out of their experience in developing electronic
components for the
world-renowned connectivity
and
switching brands
Bulgin
and Arcolectric, our teams of
product development engineers based at the Connectivity
Lab in Cambridge relish the challenge of delivering complex
and demanding
custom solutions.
We’ll question you, challenge you and work with you to anticipate the future demands
of your markets, making sure that we are creating the right products at the right price.
Working in close collaboration with you, we identify opportunities, mitigate risks and plan
how to exploit new and emerging technologies, creating category-driving innovations that
deliver on highly demanding projects.
Pushing the boundaries of new product development.
At the Connectivity Lab, we offer our customers a high quality, ‘one stop shop’
engineering resource, using our technical expertise and extensive knowledge across a
range of engineering disciplines to provide human-centered design, as well as turnkey
project management capabilities. Liaising directly with our manufacturing plants, the
Connectivity Lab ensures that no stone is unturned in getting your ideas off the page
and progressing your prototype to full-scale manufacturing to meet the demands of your
customers. This simplifies the supply chain and the manufacturing process, reduces
production costs and accelerates time to market.
Excellence and experience
Having access to the right expertise, at the right time – whether it is for an individual
phase of the development project or the entire production process – is a vital part of
the transition from concept to finished product. At Elektron, we foster an entrepreneurial
approach, equipping our engineers with state-of-the-art facilities and cutting-edge design
tools, including: analytical modelling computer-aided design rapid prototyping printed
circuit board manufacture testing and quality assurance
Celebrating individuality!
All of our customers are individuals and so are their projects. With
diverse R&D skills covering every aspect of engineering and a quest
to bring high-level innovation to the table, our bespoke services are
uniquely tailored to customers’ individual needs, giving you the very
best results when we take an original concept from design through to
manufacture.
We pay close attention to every element of the product development
and manufacturing process and have designed the StageGate®
Process, our own method to control and document every step.
Our service offers ISO 9001 accreditation for document control so
that you can reap the benefits of our carefully controlled protocols,
whether for just one aspect of a project or the entire development process.

Approvals
Good design, high quality
and
maximum value
have
formed an integral part of the
Bulgin philosophy.
We maintain a documented quality plan specifying
process and product goals and are approved by BSI
to ISO9001.
Investment in new plant and equipment makes an
important contribution to continuous quality
improvements. The risk of errors in the transition from
design to manufacture is greatly reduced by the digital
data flows from our CAD system, and our
sophisticated automatic manufacturing equipment
which can form and assemble components to
consistently high quality standards.
All new products are extensively
pre-production tested, in our
dedicated electrical and mechanical
test facility, which also conducts
regular checks during manufacture.
The numerous international safety approvals gained are
testimony in themselves to Bulgin’s ongoing commitment
to quality and the world wide market place.
These European Directives introduced environmental responsibilities for electrical and electronics equipment manufacturers.
The RoHS (Restriction of use of certain Hazardous Substances) regulation (Directive 2002/95/EC) came into force July
2006. The WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) regulation (Directive 2002/96/EC), came into force
January 2007.
The RoHS directive effectively bans the use of certain chemicals, these are defined as:
• Lead
• Cadmium
• Mercury
• Hexavalent Chromium
• Polybrominated Biphenyl (PBB) - flame retardant
• Polybrominated Diphenyl Ether (PBDE) - flame retardant (including Deca BDE)
Action has been taken to ensure all standard products meet the requirements of this directive. All packing carries RoHS
compliance information as conformation.
*Our IP ratings are internally tested to EN 60529. IP68 rated products have undergone immersion testing in water at a depth
of 10M for a period of 2 weeks unless otherwise stated.
