The Industrial Automation Division of Danfoss has named FLODRAULIC as its exclusive distributor for the motor control gear product line in North America. FLODRAULIC Canada, Georgetown, Ontario, will distribute Danfoss contactors, overload relays, circuit breakers, timers, and motor starters to markets in the United States and Canada. The company will also distribute Danfoss industrial controls, including pressure and temperature sensors, switches, and valves.
Known for its design and production of fluid power solutions for the mobile and industrial original equipment manufacturer (OEM) markets, FLODRAULIC represents more than 30 manufacturers and operates 14 facilities in the United States and four in Canada. The company brings more than 25 years of experience in the North American market, including successful product applications, to its new agreement with Danfoss.
“In an effort to continue growing our business in the current economic climate, it seemed a natural choice to expand our existing partnership with Danfoss,” says Carl Trepanier, panel shop manager at FLODRAULIC. “Taking on their motor control gear and traditional industrial controls has enhanced our product offering to better meet customer requirements, and positioned us to remain competitive in the marketplace for years to come.”
