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.
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.
