Kentec appoints Mercury as top distributor

Kentec Electronics, manufacturer of innovative life safety solutions, and Mercury Security Distribution, Ireland’s foremost provider of cutting-edge fire detection technology for businesses, have announced that they have further strengthened their relationship. With immediate effect, Mercury Security Distribution is a member of the Kentec Authorised Distributors Plus (KAD+) programme and becomes the first Irish organisation to hold this prestigious designation.

For over 25 years, Mercury Security Distribution has provided the Irish market with security and fire detection products and systems, while maximising value for its customers. ‘We believe customer satisfaction is the key to our success,’ stated the company’s managing director, Conor O’Donovan. ‘We strive to provide exceptional service and support to all our clients. Having already been a Kentec Authorised Distributor (KAD) for over a year, taking things to the next level by becoming a KAD+ means that we will be able to use our outstanding technical know-how to help installers and end users benefit from Kentec’s advanced products like Taktis and K-Mesh, as well as conventional, addressable and extinguishant panels.’

The highly respected KAD+ programme comprises a global network of fire safety specialists and distributors. They are recognised for their exceptional expertise in Kentec products and ability to provide advanced solutions for a diverse array of applications and building types. This elite group is distinguished by their use of the KAD+ logo, and they can ensure that installers and end users have immediate access to the entire Kentec range, with expedited delivery.

Kevin O’Connell, commercial director at Mercury Security Distribution, explained, ‘We provide solutions and technical support for a diverse range of projects including some of Ireland’s largest and highest profile buildings. KAD+ status shows our customers that we have the product knowledge and expertise to work with the most sophisticated Kentec systems, and can provide unparalleled local sales support, technical advice, and application expertise. This ensures they get the most appropriate and technologically advanced fire safety solution for their needs.’

Mercury Security Distribution’s technical experts have received comprehensive training from Kentec, equipping them with in-depth information regarding its entire product range, including the pioneering Taktis fire alarm panel and K-Mesh wireless fire detection system. This means life safety equipment installers and end users across Ireland will be able to receive reliable and prompt service and support from Mercury Security Distribution, backed-up with Kentec’s own extensive knowledge and resources.

Welcoming Mercury Security Distribution to the KAD+ programme, Johnny Martin, business development manager at Kentec, commented, ‘I’m delighted that our two organisations have joined forces to drive business growth and set new standards in the industry. Kentec and Mercury Security Distribution share a similar ethos, and we both believe that the needs of the customer come first. I’m convinced that businesses across Ireland now have access to the highest levels of fire safety technology and expertise, and I’m looking forward to strengthening our relationship even further.’
