ASC continues to expand its international network

Pfaffenhofen, 6th May 2013 – Advanced Sensors Calibration (ASC), one of the world's leading manufacturers of accelerometers, angular rate sensors and IMUs (inertial measurement units), will now work with two new distributors in the growth markets of India and Brazil with immediate effect. In India, ENTEST Technologies will be the exclusive distributor for all ASC products. In Brazil, RELETEC Ltd will market ASC solutions especially for the construction, industrial, automation and automotive sectors in the framework of a non-exclusive distribution agreement. The rail transport and wind energy sectors in Brazil are to be covered by other distributors in the future. With RELETEC Ltd, ASC is now represented in Brazil and South America for the first time. In the Asian market, ASC products are already available in China, and now with the cooperation with ENTEST Technologies they are also available in India for the first time.

RELETEC Ltd, with its headquarters in São Paulo, supplies Brazilian companies in the construction, industrial, automation and automotive sectors with high quality technical products such as sensors, safety relays and reed and level switches. Its portfolio of well-known customers includes Ford, Siemens and IBM. “We are pleased that we can now also offer our customers sensors from ASC. In all of the sectors in which we operate there is a high demand for technically innovative products. ASC offers high quality individual solutions, even in small quantities – which convinces both us and our customers”, comments Julio Sollazzini, the founder and owner of RELETEC Ltd.

ENTEST Technologies is specialised in solutions for environmental simulation, non-destructive testing and power and torque measurements and mainly supplies customers from the automotive industry, manufacturing, aerospace and defence.

“The markets in India and Brazil have a high growth potential. Sensor systems and measuring equipment are key technologies for the further technical development of various branches of industry. We are very pleased to have gained RELETEC and ENTEST Technologies as two strong partners in these two regions, enabling us to establish a new presence there with our solutions”, says Renate Bay, manager of ASC.
