SAKOR TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL RESULTS OF COUNCIL OF GREAT LAKES GOVERNORS QUEBEC TRADE MISSION 2015

Trading partners and potential customers identified



SAKOR Technologies, Inc., a recognized leader in the implementation of instrumentation products for dynamometer testing, announces that its participation in Council of Great Lakes Governors Québec Trade Mission 2015 successfully netted them several new potential trading partners. Those identified are expected to help sell SAKOR equipment and provide in-country sales, service, and technical support.
The international trade mission, organized by the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) in cooperation with the United States Department of Commerce, resulted in non-stop opportunities to meet with large and small companies interested in learning more about SAKORs capabilities. A transportation industry group is already considering purchasing a dynamometer system to use in its truck equipment testing program.
As part of the mission, Bob McFarland, SAKORs Director of Business Development, was invited by Michigan Governor Rick Snyder to take part in a roundtable discussion focusing on strategic development of Québecs aerospace industry. Organized by Aero Montreal, the roundtable was a great opportunity to highlight Michigan business capabilities. A special focus was the commercial aerospace industry, where Canada is a leading developer of drone technology.
Several units within Hydro Québec were also identified as potential customers, including Hydro-Québecs research institute, IREQ, which is charged with testing manufacturers claims on the efficiency of electric motors and drives. A major Canadian manufacturer of electric motors is another prospect, as is an organization providing applied research on specialized vehicles.
"I cannot say enough about the tremendous assistance given to SAKOR by MEDC," said Randal Beattie, president of SAKOR. "All the contacts and meetings they arranged kept our team hopping, and they did a wonderful job of educating us on the aerospace industry in Québec, as well as numerous other opportunities. I look forward to working with MEDC on similar economic development initiatives in the future."

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technology™, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
