UK-headquartered HMi Elements is expanding its distribution network for its PC workstations designed for use on oil rigs, through a new partnership with Dutch explosion-proof equipment expert, Cobic-Ex
The partnership will enable HMi Elements to tap into Cobic-Ex’s global network, which extends across Europe, UAE, KSA, USA, Nigeria and South Africa. It will see Cobic-Ex supporting the promotion of HMi Elements’ product portfolio, which is customised for use in hazardous areas, in particular for the global oil and gas sector.
HMi Elements' products have a strong reputation for their outstanding performance and reliability, particularly in challenging environments, notably Zone 1 and Zone 2 areas.
Shannen de’Vries, who was instrumental in facilitating the partnership and has a business development role at HMi Elements said, “We are thrilled to be collaborating with Cobic-Ex to support even more people working in hazardous oil and gas environments to increase their safety, efficiency and productivity.
“These are highly pressured environments, so it is vital that workers are equipped with secure and effective devices that allow them to complete their tasks with ease.
“Cobic-Ex is the ideal fit for us, their commitment to quality, safety and a client-focused service aligns seamlessly with our own vision and values. While we are still in the early days of our relationship, I am looking forward to fostering a long-term alliance between our two brands.”
