Tactile Technologies moves into Gauteng

27 July 2005 News

Tactile Technologies has opened in Gauteng with a branch office located at The Innovation Hub in Pretoria. Until now, Tactile Technologies has traded its Elo TouchSystems range of products in Gauteng through Johannesburg-based distribution channel ScreenVision.

Although the partnership will continue, with ScreenVision continuing to service the hardware of their clients, Tactile Technologies managing director Mauro Mercuri says the new branch would enable the company to actively seek out new clients as well as continue to educate the business community regarding the benefits of touch technology. A further benefit of operating directly from its new Gauteng base is a significant decrease in the price of its products, he said.

Mercuri also announced the appointment of Ernst Ohlhoff to head up the new branch. Ohlhoff has an intimate working knowledge of Tactile Technologies' products.

In addition to touch screen technology products, Tactile Technologies offers total solutions to its clients - also providing the kiosks or housings for this hardware, as well as software which is tailored to clients' needs.
