Company Profile

Founded in 1979, Ryder Towing have pursued excellence and expertise for over thirty years and earned a just reputation as leaders in our industry. Our unique understanding of towbar electrics and of the challenges presented by new cars has enabled us to conceive of and design market leading products for over thirty years.

First of all we became well known for flasher monitors and relays. Later we added the much imitated self-switching caravan “Smart” combination relay and the ground-breaking Smart Logic bypass relay. Now we have the reputation of the industry’s problem-solvers as well as being probably the U.K.’s largest specialist supplier of towbar electrical products.

 We are committed to offering the right products to meet the challenge of changing vehicle technology and to ensuring that the products we offer are of the highest quality, efficient, and cost-effective.

Our market-leading range of bypass relays, the Smart-Logic series, is internationally successful, providing an almost universal interface between modern cars and towing electrics.

David Ryder is a  former  Chairman of the National Trailer and Towing Association and was a prime mover in the establishment of the industry’s National Training Programme, "Trailing Success" and of "Quality Secured" the scheme that delivers assured high standards of quality for customers throughout Britain.
