Kotthoff said, ?EPPE, METES and EPOS are other varieties of testing systems that we have brought to the fore in Dubai. With our subsidiary in Bahrain, we are now looking at attracting more business in the region. Our ACTAS range is in focus here and it?s a very smart and easy-to-handle device. ACTAS P 260 especially has worked very well in Germany and we are looking to get the same response in the Middle East.?
KoCoS is also looking to push it highly-acclaimed SHERLOG in the region as it believes that the UAE is pushing for the growth of such devices in utilities.
Speaking about partnerships in the region, Christian said that SHERLOG has been pre-qualified by Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). So the company feels that ACTAS needs a boost in the UAE.
KoCoS has facilities in Bahrain and representatives in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
