Clacton-on-Sea, UK: Leading manufacturer of high performance reed relays, Pickering Electronics has extended its partnership agreement with specialist technical distributor, Wiselink to cover Vietnam. Wiselink already provides local support for Pickering’s growing customer base in the region from established bases in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines – and will now also do so from its new office in Vietnam’s largest city, Ho Chi Minh City. This move will enhance access to Pickering’s industry-leading reed relays, ensuring faster service, expert advice, and a streamlined supply chain for design engineers in Vietnam.
Established in 1993 in Singapore, Wiselink is a leading distributor of electronic components in Southeast Asia, with a strong focus on product quality and excellence in customer service. The company acts as a trusted supply channel partner for more than 35 suppliers and over 2,500 OEM and CEM customers across a range of diverse industries. Comments Pickering Group CEO, Keith Moore: “Wiselink has proved itself to be a proactive partner for Pickering in this vital region, dedicated to technical expertise, reliability and customer satisfaction.”
This partnership builds on Pickering’s ongoing investment in Southeast Asia. Pickering Group (comprising Pickering Interfaces–its modular switching & simulation division; Pickering Electronics–its relay division; and Pickering Connect–its interconnect division) also recently opened a new office in Penang, Malaysia, to better serve the needs of its expanding customer base throughout the Southeast Asia region, offering enhanced local support to customers and partners across the region – including Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia. By strengthening local support channels, the company aims to ensure that engineers and procurement teams have improved access to the best relay solutions with the convenience of regional distribution.

Pickering is renowned for its leadership and innovation in reed relays, using instrumentation-grade reed switches with vacuum-sputtered ruthenium plating to ensure stable, long life (up to 5 billion operations). Formerless coil construction and SoftCenter™ technology also help to increase reliability and robustness, while its Mu-metal magnetic screening (either external or internal) enables ultra-high PCB side-by-side packing densities with minimal magnetic interaction, saving significant cost and space. Pickering relays are also known for their reliability, due to superior manufacturing and quality control processes, with 100% testing for all operating parameters, including dynamic contact wave-shape analysis with full data scrutiny to maintain consistency.
