Why the THINS+ 20A Series is Redefining Safety
When choosing the top brand switches for your renovation, aesthetics usually come first. But for high-powered appliances, safety is the ultimate luxury. At reTOUCH, we’ve engineered the THINS+ 20A Series to be among the most safer and reliable options available today, combining ultra-thin design with industrial-grade protection.
Most consumer switches rely on standard plastics, but the THINS+ 20A Series stands apart by using a rare Bakelite rear core.
Historically known for its incredible durability, Bakelite is a thermosetting material that does not melt, even under extreme heat. By integrating this into our SIRIM-approved switches, we provide a level of technical confidence that rivals global industry leaders, ensuring your home is protected by the highest safety standards.
To rank as one of the safest electrical switches in Malaysia, our engineering team focused on four critical performance metrics:
Superior Heat Resistance: Unlike standard thermoplastics that can warp, our Bakelite core remains stable at temperatures up to 180°C.
High-Current Reliability: Specifically designed for 20A applications, making it the ideal choice for water heaters and air conditioners.
Premium Insulation Safety: Exceptional dielectric strength prevents electrical leaks, providing total peace of mind for your family.
Long-Term Durability: Built to withstand decades of daily use without structural degradation.
We believe the top brand switches should enhance your interior design, not distract from it. The THINS+ series offers a minimalist, ultra-thin profile in four curated finishes:
| Finish | Best For... |
| Matte White | Scandi and Minimalist interiors. |
| Ecru | Warm, organic, and Muji-style aesthetics. |
| Matte Grey | Modern industrial and slate-themed walls. |
| Glass Grey | High-end luxury and tempered glass accents. |
Market Note: Due to high demand, our R&D team is currently developing new premium textures and colors to further elevate your home’s hardware.
The THINS+ 20A Series is the preferred choice for safety-critical installations in residential and commercial projects:
Water Heater Switches: Reliable power for high-wattage heating elements.
Air-Conditioner Isolators: Sleek, flush-mount protection for cooling systems.
Heavy-Duty Appliances: Essential for ovens, dryers, and kitchen hubs.
Premium Commercial Spaces: Elevating the safety standards of hotels and offices.
What makes THINS+ one of the safest switches on the market?
The combination of a SIRIM-certified design and a rare Bakelite rear core ensures that our switches handle heat better than almost any other consumer brand.
Is it safe for high-power appliances?
Yes. The THINS+ 20A is specifically engineered for high-load appliances, preventing the common "burnt switch" issues found in lower-quality alternatives.
Are reTOUCH switches SIRIM approved?
Absolutely. All reTOUCH products undergo rigorous testing to meet Malaysian and international safety standards.
What makes the THINS+ 20A Series different from standard switches?
The distinction lies in the materials. While others use standard polycarbonate throughout, we utilize a rare Bakelite rear base to provide superior heat management and a more premium tactile experience.
Why is Bakelite used in the rear core?
Bakelite is a thermosetting plastic that does not melt. This makes it the gold standard for electrical insulation and long-term structural stability in high-voltage environments.
Will there be more colors available soon?
Yes! We are constantly inspired by our community. New colors and unique surface textures are currently in our R&D pipeline.
