R. STAHL opens new stock and assembly facility in Aberdeen

20 November 2012

Autumn 2012 marks the launch of R. STAHL Aberdeen, a new stock and assembly facility designed to serve its existing local distributor network. The company is a manufacturer of explosion proof technology designed for use in hazardous areas with a heritage of quality and expertise dating back to 1876.

An addition to the existing UK headquarters in Birmingham, the opening of the new facility heralds a new era of growth and opportunity for the organisation, whilst demonstrating the company’s commitment to the Aberdeen economy.

Mike Kitney, Operations Manager for R. STAHL Aberdeen, said: “With over twenty years’ experience of selling Stahl products, the opportunity to set up and run the Stahl facility in Aberdeen was tremendously exciting. As the centre of the UK Oil industry it was important that Stahl had a presence in Aberdeen to support our wholesale partners and enable them to offer fast off the shelf service to their customers. After 5 months of operation we are growing day by day and my motto is, ‘if you have it or can build it, you will sell it’ as Aberdeen waits for nobody!”

R. STAHL’s vast explosion-protected product portfolio includes HVAC and pressurised container units, signalling devices, power distribution systems, electrical installation equipment, CCTV surveillance systems, fixed and portable lighting equipment, and operating and monitoring systems all designed and produced to the highest quality and exacting standards.

With all this and more than 3,000 certificates for explosion protection, over 70 active patents and membership of numerous standardisation, technical and working committees, R. STAHL is fully equipped to create your complete system solution.

Operations Manager Mike Kitney is joined by Grant Stott, Aberdeen Regional Sales Manager who has an electrical wholesale and distribution management background and years of experience within the Aberdeen energy industry. When asked what benefits the new Aberdeen facility will bring to R. STAHL’s customers Grant Stott made the following statement: “With over five years experience of the Aberdeen oil and gas market I’m mindful of our customer’s demand for an excellent level of technical and logistical service. The opening of our office and build facility enables us to meet and exceed expectations providing value to our customers and local distributors. We are proud to commit to and invest in the local Aberdeen economy and look forward to many successful years ahead.”
