The novel distributor model promises to enable a broader Schneider Electric customer base to receive high-level specialised support for industrial projects all over Australia, including remote and regional areas.

Carlos Urbano, Vice President of Industry, Pacific Zone at Schneider Electric, expressed that Remtron's strong network and customer-focused approach position them as the perfect partner to enhance the accessibility of Schneider Electric's top-notch automation solutions. The collaboration aims to bring these advanced solutions closer to customers, enabling them to achieve higher levels of competitiveness and growth.

Carlos Urbano said, "Remtron's established network and customer-centric approach make it the ideal partner to bring Schneider Electric's top-tier automation solutions closer to our customers, empowering them to unlock new levels of competitiveness and growth."

Urbano highlighted that the partnership with Remtron allows Schneider Electric to expand its influence, ensuring that a broader range of businesses in Australia can benefit from the innovative products and services offered by Schneider Electric.

"By partnering with Remtron, we are significantly extending our reach and ensuring that even more businesses across Australia can leverage the power of Schneider Electric's innovative products and services," said Urbano.

Expressing his delight, Adrian Matthews, Managing Director of Remtron, said, "Our team is pleased to be partnering with Schneider Electric to deliver its comprehensive range of industrial automation solutions to the market. We possess the expertise, coverage, and the superior technology solutions to ensure Remtron's success in solving complex problems for industrial organisations."

The collaboration between Remtron Automation and Schneider Electric not only promises an outright win for all industrial customers across Australia but also adds immense value to Schneider's industrial clientele in the country. Support from the partnership is readily available for all of Schneider Electric's industrial customers across Australia.
