EU Automation to expand parts distribution in APAC and East Asia

Automation parts supplier EU Automation has announced it is expanding its operations in APAC and the East Asia, following a rapid growth in demand for its services in the region. The company specialises in supplying rare, reconditioned and unused parts to companies worldwide.

The company said it has experienced 1450% growth in turnover at its regional hub in Singapore in the last five years, prompting investment in larger premises and a strengthening of its global leadership team.

“Our customers’ best interests are always our first priority,” said Darren Halford, Managing Director of EU Automation. “The investment in new premises, coupled with two strategic appointments, marks a new phase in our business’s mission to supply the manufacturing world with industry-leading parts and service at speed. It highlights EU Automation’s continuing commitment to global manufacturing and supports our mission to help customers avoid unnecessary downtime and save millions in lost revenue.”

EU Automation said it currently supports more than 50,000 customers worldwide and sources over two million parts annually. Singapore is a strategic hub for the company, facilitating parts distribution into Asia–Pacific, Asia and other areas of the world. The growth in demand for its services in the region is driven in part by global trends such as sustainability and the circular economy.

New accommodation at the Far East Finance Building in Singapore will enable the company to employ more account managers and native language speakers to serve the wider APAC region and deal with growing demand.
