Unilux expands sales support in northwestern USA

PNRG will provide local sales support for Unilux customers in four northwest states: Montana, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming, and two Canadian provinces: Alberta and British Columbia.

‘PNRG is a welcome addition to the Unilux team,’ said Tom Herold, VP sales-Americas. ‘By delivering professional representation of our inspection solutions to manufacturers in the northwest, they will help us improve our competitive advantage and market position.’

PNRG brings decades of experience in paper, steel and various other manufacturing sectors, aligning with Unilux industrial markets. PNRG represents several manufacturers with complementary products.

‘We welcome the opportunity to work with Unilux,’ said Bob Napier, president of PNRG. ‘As technology leaders in stroboscopic inspection, Unilux products offer outstanding opportunities for manufacturers in our region.’

Unilux inspection lights use the stroboscopic effect to freeze images of sections of webs moving at full production speed, making the smallest of defects clearly visible. This enables operators to use their knowledge of the product and printing process to determine the cause of the defect and take appropriate action to fix the problem or stop expensive, value-added processes to reduce waste.
