Distributors of electrical components and smart solutions, Europa, has announced the launch of its new screwless Fanton Industrial Plugs and Sockets range.
The products are engineered to deliver safe, reliable and high-performance power connections across the most demanding industrial environments.
Built to withstand heavy use, moisture, dust and temperature extremes, they ensure secure power distribution for machinery and equipment across factories, workshops, construction sites and specialist applications, such as events, marinas, street markets and outdoor venues.
Key benefits of the Fanton Industrial Plugs and Sockets range include:
- Fast connection system: Saves time on installation and reduces the risk of errors.
- Vibration-resistant design: Secure connections stay intact over time, enhancing reliability.
- Screwless wiring: Pre-loaded spring eliminates the need for a screwdriver.
- Ergonomic design: Patented hook, handle and thumb pad make it easy to open and operate with one hand, even while wearing gloves.
- High-performance materials: Self-extinguishing, fire- and impact-resistant thermoplastics for enhanced safety.
- Choice of IP ratings (IP54/IP67): Suitable for a wide range of industrial and outdoor applications.
Rob Aitken, technical director at Europa, said: “The new Fanton Industrial Plugs and Sockets are part of Europa’s exciting new screwless range.
“This is a real step forward for industrial connectivity. The range is designed to make life easier for installers, including being faster to fit, safer in use and stronger in performance.
“We’ve focused on every detail, from ergonomics to assembly, to ensure it delivers both reliability and convenience in equal measure.”
Ben Adams, head of sales at Europa, added: “The Fanton range represents another leap in quality and innovation for Europa.
“It’s a product that truly benefits every level of the supply chain. Wholesalers can stock a premium, European-manufactured range; installers can save time on site; and end users can trust in long-lasting, high-performance connections.”
Europa is introducing multiple products and additions to its ranges in 2025, including the new Fanton Industrial Plugs and Sockets, which were used at the Shropshire Oktoberfest, the beginning of a new partnership.
Beth Heath, ‘director of fun’ at Shropshire Festivals, said: “Shropshire Festivals is very grateful for the support of Europa plc at our recent Shropshire Oktoberfest.
“The collaboration gave us the opportunity to introduce Europa’s vast range of products to our festival crew, which includes electricians, sound and lighting technicians, and rigging crew.
“It was great to have the Europa plc team on site, helping our teams discover the possibilities of their products. I’d like to say a big thank you for powering the fun at Shropshire Oktoberfest. We look forward to continuing our partnership in 2026.”
