omus Technology BV, located in Heerlen and operating under the brand name Coto Technology (formerly known as Coto Technology BV), specializes in producing reed switches. These non-chemical components are primarily made of nickel-iron and glass and do not release any substances under normal and foreseeable conditions of use. Consequently, Comus Technology BV is classified as a downstream user according to REACH legislation. This designation means there is no obligation to register the substances in reed switches or to produce material safety data sheets (MSDS).
Comus International was founded in June 1978 by President Robert P. Romano. Initially, the company focused on manufacturing glass mercury tilt switches. Through Romano's leadership, the company successfully developed metal mercury switches and ultimately patented non-mercury switches.
Today, Comus International is a leading manufacturer of tilt and tip-over switches, motion/vibration sensors, and float switches, renowned for its quality and service. The company has become a global leader in designing, developing, and manufacturing a wide variety of sensors and sensor-related products. These applications span diverse areas such as medical equipment, automobiles, steam irons, nuclear plants, alarm systems, and even the Arch of St. Louis.
Over time, Comus expanded by acquiring companies with sensor-related products, forming the Comus Group of Companies. This group includes Comus Europe (formerly ASSEMtech Europe Ltd) and Active Switch and Sensor in Essex, England; Comus France; Comus International BVBA in Belgium; Comus Technology BV (formerly Coto Technology BV) in the Netherlands; STG India; and Comus India. The Comus Group of Companies is one of the largest manufacturers in the sensor industry. Products manufactured or distributed by the group are available through sales agents, distributors, and a dedicated sales team.
The corporation's ongoing success is rooted in the dedicated approach of its employees, particularly evident in research and development and sales. This commitment ensures that customer ideas are transformed into finished quality products, delivered on time and within budget.
