Our products
Since the very beginning, the team has been the Norwegian importer for Hirschmann, a renowned German supplier of network equipment for industrial use. In addition, they represent Federal Signal and Funke+Huster Fernsig, both of which are major players in telecoms and signalling equipment.

Heading into 2013, they were joined by a new partner that has already been a great success, Finnish company Atexor, which supplies offshore-certified lamps for temporary lighting.

"These are really good products from skilled suppliers who are very inspiring to work with," says a satisfied Dag Ivar Roald, CEO of OneCo Products.

A good match with OneCo
Dag Ivar is convinced that the small company has been well served by becoming part of OneCo, and he is impressed by the work that is being done to integrate new companies into the Group.

"From a business perspective, we fit very well into the Group's portfolio, and we have received tremendous support in the environment we are now part of," he says with satisfaction.

Two product environments become one
From 1 January 2014, OneCo will have a single product sales environment after the product department in OneCo Vests was transferred to OneCo Products. From its office in Sandnes, a small team has focussed on product sales, with a product portfolio that complements what is already available in OneCo Products. The environments operated towards the same customers and a merger therefore quickly emerged as natural.

"We're looking forward to welcoming our new colleagues in Sandnes. We're now getting both good people and attractive products. Not least, I hope that our new employees will enjoy joining a company that specialises in product sales," says Dag Ivar.

In addition, he believes that it will be easier for the outside world to relate to a single point of contact for product sales and that customers will be satisfied with being able to buy several products in one place. In terms of products, the new team will include well-known CMP, which supplies cable glands, and Technor ATEX, which supplies switches and operating materials.

E-commerce
The company was among the first in the industry to launch a modern e-commerce solution and has been able to offer satisfied customers to find prices and products in its own webshop for almost 10 years. As a result of the merger, this will be expanded from 1 January to include products from CMP, Technor Atex, Hadar and IMT, among others.
