TR TAKING A STAND AT SOUTHERN
MANUFACTURING AND ELECTRONICS 2019
TR Fastenings, global specialist in the
engineering, manufacture and distribution
of industrial fasteners, will be exhibiting
at Southern Manufacturing & Electronics
2019, which takes place from the 5th to
the 7th February 2019 at the Farnborough
International Exhibition and Conference
Centre.
Southern Manufacturing and Electronics is
‘the most comprehensive annual industrial
exhibition in the UK’, showcasing expertise,
technology and innovations in machinery,
production, electronics and components
across a wide range of industrial sectors
throughout Europe. There is also a large focus
on assembly, tooling and subcontract services
at the show.
TR engineers, manufactures and distributes
industrial fasteners to OEMs and Tier 1
suppliers in sectors ranging from automotive,
electronics and domestic appliances,
supplying more than 60 billion components
annually to over 5,000 companies across 60
countries.
Manufacturing and engineering plays a
central role in TR’s global operations and
the firm’s 31 worldwide sites include eight
manufacturing plants equipped with the
latest technologies and facilities to cater
for every customer’s needs. The continued
investment in equipment, resources and skills
in these facilities enables the development
of innovative fastening solutions, such as the
newly launched TR patented EPW screw, a
self-extruding thread-forming screw designed
for use in thin sheet metal. TR also supports
emerging sectors such as Electric Vehicle (EV)
charging, with its combination of fastener
product ranges and industry knowledge and
expertise.
At Southern Manufacturing, TR will be
exhibiting a full range of industrial fasteners,
including its own branded fasteners for
sheet metal, enclosure hardware, fasteners
for plastic, security fasteners, and plastic
hardware, as well as special fasteners designed
and manufactured to customer drawings. The
EPW screw will also be on display at the show,
with TR engineers on hand to talk through its
applications and benefits.
TR will be joined on its stand by
representatives from Nord-Lock, the global
36
PECM Issue 36
manufacturer of washers and bolting
solutions. As a supplier to TR, the two
companies work closely together and
sharing a stand at the show allows them the
opportunity to demonstrate their added
value to potential customers and partners.
Kevin de Stadler, UK & Ireland Sales Director
at TR Fastenings, comments:
“The chance to discuss our products and
services with potential customers is always
valuable and Southern Manufacturing will
give us a great opportunity to meet with
representatives from multiple industries
across Europe to share our expertise and
demonstrate the breadth of our product
range.
“The fact that the show covers such a large
variety of sectors, disciplines and specialities
means we can not only reach a wider
audience but also partake in conversations
about the issues and market conditions
affecting each aspect of the manufacturing
industry.”
