Farnell has announced a strategic partnership with PATLITE Europe, providing customers with greater access to the manufacturer’s comprehensive product portfolio across the EMEA region.
Since 1947, PATLITE has offered equipment for the process and industrial automation industries. Innovative and durable design, backed by industry experience and a strong commitment to safety and security, have made PATLITE a specialist of visual and audible signalling devices. Partnering with Farnell enables PATLITE to leverage Farnell’s strengths in the distribution market, ensuring faster delivery times for customers and enhanced customer service and support.
Calum O’Connell, PATLITE Country Manager, UK & Ireland, said: “The benefits that both Farnell and PATLITE Europe will gain from this partnership, such as Farnell’s extended visualisation-related devices product portfolio and the opportunity for PATLITE Europe to increase market share, represent significant advantages that will eventually accrue to our respective customers.”
Beginning with the invention of a single micromotor, PATLITE has since been expanding its technology and product line while focusing on industry trends and innovation. For example, as the industry’s signalling needs shift from simple lights and buzzers to smart, network-capable devices, PATLITE has developed an array of products ranging from wireless data-acquisition systems, programmable signal towers, IO-Link and POE-enabled devices, and more.
Sarah Priebe, Global Product Segment Leader for Sensors, Farnell, said: “This strategic collaboration is exciting for Farnell. Our customers are able to access advanced visualisation-related devices and IoT products as we expand our offering, which will enable further innovation, and provides PATLITE access to our global distribution network.”
Items from PATLITE Europe’s range of range of signalling components can be ordered online from Farnell in EMEA.
