From small workshops to large-scale factories, our signal boosting solutions are trusted across the manufacturing sector to keep teams connected, streamline operations, and maintain safety - even in signal-blocking environments.
Eliminate Dead Zones in Your Industrial Operations
From large metal structures and machinery to thick concrete walls and industrial interference, manufacturing environments often block or weaken mobile signals. This can lead to delays in internal communication, disruptions in IoT device performance, and challenges in coordinating with suppliers or remote teams.
Bolton Technical provides ICASA-approved signal boosters and passive repeater systems built for demanding industrial environments. Whether you’re operating on the factory floor, in a warehouse, or a control room, our solutions ensure strong, stable cellular connectivity - across all major networks.
The Unique Challenge of Cell Signal at Manufacturing sites
Manufacturing facilities face unique signal challenges due to dense building materials like steel and concrete, interference from heavy machinery, and large-scale layouts that create dead zones. Remote locations and thick interior walls further weaken cellular reception, while the growing reliance on IoT systems, automation, and mobile devices demands stable, high-speed connectivity. Without strong signal, productivity drops, communication stalls, and safety systems can be compromised.
Safety Starts with Strong Signal
In a manufacturing environment, clear and reliable communication is critical - especially during emergencies. Whether it’s coordinating teams on the floor, reporting safety incidents, or calling for urgent assistance, poor cellular coverage can slow response times and put lives at risk.
Bolton Technical’s ICASA-approved signal boosters ensure stable, high-quality mobile reception across your factory, warehouse, or plant. Because in manufacturing, safety depends on staying connected - don’t let weak signal be your operation’s blind spot.

Our 4 Step Installation Process
Every professional repeater installation follows a proven 4-step process. Our certified installers are fully trained to ensure each installation meets our strict quality standards.
Step 1
Initial Review
Send us your building plans. Our team will create professional heat map designs showing projected antenna signal strengths per floor. We'll also generate a Bill of Materials (BOM) and a detailed cost estimate.
Step 2
On-Site Survey
We visit your building to conduct a comprehensive site survey using a signal test analyser. A signal expert will guide you through every step of the process to ensure accurate data collection.
Step 3
Design Proposal
Using the data from the survey, we refine the system design and generate a final, accurate BOM tailored to your site's needs.
Step 4
Installation Support
Bolton’s expert installation team handles the full setup, ensuring the system is installed correctly for maximum performance and reliability.

Manufacturing Signal Booster FAQs
Why is cell phone signal so weak inside manufacturing facilities?
Manufacturing buildings are often made of concrete, steel, and other signal-blocking materials. Heavy machinery and interference from equipment can also degrade signal. Our ICASA-approved signal boosters overcome these challenges by amplifying weak outdoor signals and distributing them indoors.
How can a signal booster help improve communication on the factory floor?
Our boosters capture existing signal outside your facility and amplify it throughout the building. This ensures clear, reliable voice calls and faster data speeds - improving communication between departments, teams, and management.
Will a signal booster work in areas with little or no signal?
A booster needs at least a faint outside signal to function. If there’s any detectable signal outdoors, our solutions - paired with high-gain donor antennas - can significantly improve indoor coverage.
Can signal boosters support multiple users and devices in a factory?
Yes. Our commercial-grade boosters, like the WilsonPro A1000 or A8000, can support dozens of users simultaneously across all major South African networks, ensuring seamless connectivity for employees and IoT systems.
Can signal boosters improve connectivity for IoT systems used in manufacturing?
Yes. Many modern factories rely on IoT devices for automation and monitoring. Our boosters stabilize cellular connections for GSM-based intercoms, tracking systems, and other IoT equipment.
Is it safe to use signal boosters in manufacturing environments with sensitive equipment?
Yes. Our boosters are ICASA-certified and meet safety standards for industrial environments. They operate on licensed frequencies and do not interfere with other critical systems.
What size area can your signal boosters cover?
We offer solutions for everything from small control rooms to large production floors and warehouses. Coverage depends on the layout, structure, and signal strength outside - but we can scale up as needed.
Are signal boosters legal in South Africa?
Yes, all Bolton Technical signal boosters are fully ICASA-approved and comply with South African regulations, ensuring safe and legal operation on your construction site.
Can your system work in multilevel manufacturing buildings?
Definitely. Our installers design custom layouts using splitters and internal antennas to distribute signal evenly across floors, offices, storage areas, and production zones.
Do signal boosters help in emergency situations?
Yes. Strong mobile signal ensures that workers can contact emergency services or supervisors without delay - critical for health, safety, and compliance.
Can your system be expanded as our manufacturing plant grows?
Absolutely. Our systems are modular and can be scaled or upgraded as your facility expands, ensuring consistent signal coverage as your operations grow.
