» Company Profile
Qtronics Europe Limited are an independent company based in Birmingham, UK. They are associated with Qtronics Manufacturing who specialise in the research, design, development and manufacture of advanced active electronic devices and alarms for the detection of gas, water and seismic vibrations in residential, commercial and industrial applications. These are some of the most technically advanced systems available on the market.

While most companies produce passive alarm systems, Qtronics is the industry leader in advanced active alarm technologies. Passive alarms — the standard that most people will recognize —alert the individual, usually via an audible alarm, when the presence of a potentially hazardous substance such as carbon monoxide or natural gas has been detected.

While active alarms also detect the presence of unsafe substances, these dynamic systems go one step further. Once pre-established safety thresholds have been exceeded, they automatically cut off gas and water lines at the mains, control elevators and manage industrial technologies, saving lives and often preventing costly additional damage to buildings, advanced machinery and other property. Active alarms are an important advance beyond today’s passive technologies, taking personal risk detection and damage reduction management to a much higher level.

The company has filed 30 patents worldwide to protect the intellectual property and technology underlying its products, and the management group has more than ninety years’ accumulated experience in quality assurance and manufacturing.
