Time

This blog is always lurking in the back of my mind on that inevitably irritating virtual to do list that we all carry with us. Usually moderated by the wife but occasionally driven by issues that pay the bills. I am aware that my last contribution was almost 12 months ago and that I did promise to be more regular!! Time!

Oh Well

Its not about a lack of things to talk about either. Life at Stahl is always full of surprises - new products, new assignments, new efficiencies and of course new learning experiences. Most recently finding out that wine comes in more than three flavours! In wine tasting terms, apparently I am akin to the guys under a bridge drinking from a plastic bottle! Not sure if thats a compliment or not - probably not.. Hey ho, Now london Ale or a good Whisky I do know! But of course little time to enjoy them! But very much looking forward to our brewery visit next week with some of our good customers.

On the subject of time (A British Invention by the way - the line runs right through the middle of the UK and starts in Greenwich, No arguing, its a fact!) Stahl has just updated part of its excellent website relating to system solutions. Now some companies might develop a certain wiz bang gadget and call it a system solution but Stahl goes much further in its endeavors to facilitate more efficient processes for our clients.
So if EEx solutions pushes a button on your to do list, then visit the website and take a look

Have good Christmas and a great new year be it White, red or Rose!

Where's the Royal Navy?

Well here I am writing this from my enforced home of Los Christianos in Tenerife. Bloody tough I can tell you. As of the other day the royal navy were coming to collect us. My wife seemed quite keen on this idea, not sure why! However, my liver can take much more of this let alone the sunshine, bikinin clad pedestrians (thats just the blokes!)and of course other british holiday makers. You know the ones you try desperately to avoid. However, I think I did once where a football shirt abroad and seek out liver and bacon from the myriad of spanish restaurants.Of course i am not alone in my predicament. Our sales director is also stuck in a holiday resort frantically trying to manage his ongoing success with two fast thumbs on a blackeberry. No mean feat having answed 50+ emails. I am sure there will be cases of repetitive thumb strain in the coming weeks. His wife has found a free creche for him advertised as "Husband ruining your free time, then drop him off at our free creche, only money for drinks required".

So during this time I have managed to check my messages on Linkedin, or whatever it is. And found that I had been invited to join the IECex discussion group. Oh, yes I move in only the best circles!! I can feel the jealousy already from you NON memebers..

And that reminded about the excellent presentation I listened to recently in Paris by one of our (R Stahl) very own field bus experts. IECex is an excellent scheme and quite straight forward to see the goal, but it needs to be viewed also with local country electrical and installation standards as well

The presentation Stahl can give informs the audience about the history, the development and the current situation regarding IECex. From the perspective of the End user, EPC, DCS, installer and or OEM. Stahl as you know has the largest range of IECEx approved Hazardous Area product in the market. Automation, Switchgear, lighting and of course specialist panels.

If you or your organisation want to know more about IEC Ex, then contact us.

We really are very nice people!

Ta ta from sun soaked Tenerife. (I am starting to wonder if i could relocate and work from here?? Hmm!!!

Still no sign of the Royal navy I but have seen Easyjet again.

Hello All

Well Christmas flew by in flash, and one of my main new years resolutions (keeping this blog more regular!!) failed at the first post. However, here I am back in the chair wondering what I should report.

Excellence in System Solutions-
A truly exceptional year for International projects-
Our success with Turtle friendly light fittings on Gorgon ,being installed as I write (that will surprise a few people!)
Or the rotating whirly noise that irritates me when driving my beloved Landrover?

Where to start?

Lighting, always a good topic and an area where Stahl moves from strength to strength. With recent successes on projects procured in Korea, Singapore, Ireland (Geographically obtuse I know, but I slotted that one in because it was really interesting technology) and Australia I can tell you that R Stahl is in a position to accomodate lighting projects all over the world. Now with our full programme of lighting.
Internationally certified products, internationally priced for International projects. IECEx, ATEX, NEC, GOST and others all in our hands with lighting design expertise on top.

If you wish to see our lighting range then please contact me and where ever you are, whatever your explosion proof need i will ensure we visit and impress you with our knowledge, product, service and attention.

Happy to hear from you if you know anything about whirly nosies on a landrover discovery when excellerating too and No its not the turbo thing!

Thanks for reading

Regards
