Rittal Australia signs distribution deal with APS Industrial

Rittal Australia has signed a national distribution partnership with APS Industrial, an electrical industrial and automation equipment distributor.

APS Industrial, a new locally owned and managed independent company provides automation, power distribution and switchgear, motor control, enclosures, connectivity, industrial communications and wiring solutions. APS has acquired Ramelec and HiTech, two Australian distributors with a national footprint.

Rittal ANZ Managing Director Michael Mallia said Rittal’s existing partnership with Ramelec is strengthened with APS’s experienced leadership team. The synergies that existed between Rittal and Ramelec’s product ranges are further enhanced with the addition of the Siemens Industrial Automation product portfolio that APS brings, he said.

APS Industrial is headquartered in Melbourne and has offices in Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Brisbane supported by strategic local stockholdings.
