Established in 1997, RJ Programmable Techniques, now to be known as RJ Connect, was formed to act as a one-stop automation house. Over the last 15 years, the company has evolved to become a leader in the supply and support of industrial networking, communications and data storage solutions.
According to Rob Wright, founder and CEO of RJ Connect, the new corporate identity has resulted from a strategic decision to focus in areas of core strength.
“Our new name and logo,” says Rob, “better reflects our market position, as well as our commitment to innovation and modernisation.
“We have found that our vast expertise and experience in all matters pertaining to connectivity has resulted in strong relations with key global suppliers, thereby affording us the capacity to offer our clients the best possible solutions in this field. Nothing illustrates this better than our sole distributorship of the world-renowned Moxa range of products.”
Rob stresses, however, that the company’s business ethos and ownership structure has not changed. “Although we have created a new identity that better reflects our market position the company will continue to operate under the same principles and philosophies that have driven it since inception. We are proud of our traditions of integrity, quality and service, RJ Connect will always make these a top priority.”
In addition to the Moxa distributorship, RJ Connect also represents EKS (fibre optic systems), IBH Softec (PLC technology), CTC Union (data communications, networking, and IP surveillance), Ultra Electronics (industrial grade fibre optic modems and Ethernet switches), M2I (HMI systems) and Durabook (rugged notebooks).
