Uniphos announces master distributor in Canada

Uniphos Envirotronic Inc. is pleased to announce that Procon Systems will become the new master distributor of Uniphos products in Canada.

Uniphos CEO Brent Yaschuk is thrilled to enter this partnership with Procon, a distributor based in Canada with 25-year history as a distributor and manufacturer of industrial instruments, process equipment and hazardous area protection.
“This is the right partnership for us in Canada and it will bring the right opportunities for us to provide affordable, high-quality equipment to companies that need effective solutions for their gas detection needs,” said Yaschuk. “I’ve known some of the team at Procon for over 15 years and am confident that they share our values in exceptional customer service and keeping our communities’ safe.”

Jeff Walters, Vice President at Procon, said they have an excellent reputation with their customers in meeting or exceeding their requirements and expectations. “It is obvious since the first discussion we have had with Uniphos, they understand that customer satisfaction is of extreme importance to us,” he said.

Other key traits that attracted Walters to Uniphos include technical competence, flexibility and the people. “Good people. This is probably the number one thing we look for in a partnership. It is a longstanding truth that good people equals success,” he explained. “This is not only in technical competence but also, and more importantly, in character.”
Ed Ligus, Uniphos Global Product Manager, added, “I think both organizations are very customer oriented and realize that our customers are our most treasured assets. A part of our vision is to grow our business in Canada, becoming the market leader in in detector tubes in Canada and we have partnered with an organization with the same core values, namely offering quality products at a fair price and as Jeff mentioned exceeding the customers’ requirements and expectations.”

Both companies approach this partnership with an attitude of ‘how can we be successful together’ which according to Walters, is not always common. “We find those at Uniphos are somewhat unique in this vision, but very much in line with Procon,” he said. “We are in 100 per cent agreement with this vision. We want our customers to be successful. We want Uniphos to be successful. This can only lead to our success.”
