Universal Instruments appoints distributor for United Kingdom

Keywords: Universal Instruments

Universal Instruments has appointed the Altus group as a distributor in the United Kingdom to augment its European sales and support infrastructure. The Altus group will handle the corporation’s new AdVantis midrange and Genesis flagship surface mount placement platforms.

The Altus group is a recently formed enterprise supplying electronic systems to industry in the United Kingdom. The three company founders bring extensive market and technology experience to the business and have already secured distribution agreements with market-leading electronic vendors in the dispensing, materials and inspection sectors.

The Altus group already boasts an enviable list of blue chip customers in all sectors of the electronics market including automotive, telecoms, industrial, medical, consumer and defence. An impressive range of small and medium size customers who are "ideal candidates for Universal’s new AdVantis platform" complements these, claims Richard Booth, one of Altus’s founders.

"We will work closely with Altus to ensure we deliver increased customer value in all our collaborative sales and support initiatives," says Brad Bennett, Universal Instruments’ New Director of European Operations.
