Leading Hazardous Area Provider Expands Service Portfolio to Include Drilling / Tapping and Assembly Solutions

EUTEX International, Houston’s leading provider of IEC cables and electrical products, today officially announced its expansion of services with the introduction of EUTEX Connect, in connection with Abtech / A.B. Controls, manufacturer of full line enclosures. The agreement has been formulated for the North American and Gulf of Mexico markets.

The complete EUTEX Connect program offers full service, turn-key assembly solutions which include cable and gland termination, custom cable assemblies and the drilling, tapping and component population of ATEX and IEC Ex approved boxes and enclosures.

“We are proud to expand our turn-key offerings to include this new service to cut lead times by up to 80%, which has been customer driven,” says EUTEX Vice-President, Nick Mair. “This new service expands our offerings from our head-quarter facility in Houston, which includes full line electrical products, the Hazardous Area Training Institute, Inspection Center and Certification Services. For more than 16 years we have been committed to meeting and exceeding client demand and EUTEX Connect continues to address what our clients expect from us.”

EUTEX leads the industry as an internationally certified cable and hazardous area product provider, and this agreement for North America will ensure faster on-time delivery and larger stock holdings to meet demand.

“EUTEX has a strong market presence and successful track record, and with this 'Connect' relationship, we are structurally expanding our manufacturing presence in the USA. This 'connection' gives us a chance to broaden our reputable distribution network while continuing to focus on manufacturing,” says Ian Wilson of A.B. Controls.
