Waldom and Phoenix Contact announce partnership

Waldom Electronics and Phoenix Contact USA have partnered on a new programme that will result in less inventory finding its way to a landfill. The programme supports Phoenix Contact’s goal of a carbon-neutral value chain by 2030.

Under the agreement, Phoenix Contact authorised distributors can send non-moving inventory to Waldom for possible resale. Waldom will manage this inventory and can resell the stock to other authorised distributors. The agreement also authorises Waldom to designate a percentage of sales to fund environmental and plant-a-tree programmes.

“By partnering with Waldom, we’re giving our distributors a more sustainable way to manage their inventory,” said Chris Beevers, Director – Electric Channel Management, Phoenix Contact USA. “This partnership is a perfect example of the Phoenix Contact Purpose Statement in action: Together, we are creating a sustainable world based on our passion for technology and innovation.”


“We’re proud to partner with Phoenix Contact – a company that shares our deep commitment to sustainability,” said Don Akery, CEO of Waldom Electronics. “Together, we’re creating more responsible ways to manage slow-moving and excess inventory, advance circularity, and support environmental initiatives like tree planting. Partnerships like this turn shared values into meaningful impact.”
