Partnership expands Transcat’s product offering
Transcat, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRNS), a leading global distributor of
professional grade test, measurement and calibration instruments and
accredited provider of calibration, parts inspection, production model
engineering and repair services, has partnered with FLIR Systems, Inc
(Nasdaq: FLIR), the global leader in the design and manufacture of
thermal imaging infrared cameras. This partnership expands Transcat’s
product offering to include FLIR’s handheld infrared cameras and thermal
imagers and reinforces Transcat’s reputation for being a leading
distributor of the finest test and measurement brands.
With a strong presence in the pharmaceutical and FDA-regulated,
industrial manufacturing, energy and utilities and chemical processing
industries, Transcat will market and distribute FLIR’s infrared cameras
and thermal imagers to its approximate 17,000 US and Canadian customers
to expand both companies’ market share and value offering. Charles P.
Hadeed, President, CEO and COO of Transcat commented, “Transcat is
excited to launch this new partnership. FLIR has long been the leader in
infrared technology and we are pleased to be a major part of
aggressively growing the market for FLIR’s handheld industrial cameras.”
FLIR pioneered the use of infrared cameras for industrial application
over 50 years ago and has developed a broad portfolio of thermographic
cameras that will now be available to the Transcat target audience.
“FLIR and Transcat are both industry leaders, and we believe the
combination of our popular camera line and the Transcat customer base
will drive revenue and market share increases for both companies,” said
Tom Scanlon, FLIR’s Vice President for Americas Thermography. “Transcat
is joining FLIR at an exciting time in the life of our distribution
program. Transcat is well known for supplying premier hand held
instruments and FLIR is the world leader in infrared cameras with a new
broad line-up of cameras designed for sale through distribution. We are
excited about this partnership and are looking forward to growing
business together with Transcat.”
