According to Stardraw.com marketing director Rob Robinson, the move represents an exciting step forward. "RGB Communications is a company that specialises in providing solutions, not just products and, having formerly distributed some very well-known control brands for the best part of two decades, what they don't know about control systems isn't worth knowing.
"We are extremely flattered that, after careful deliberation and extensive product evaluation, RGB Communications has concluded that Stardraw Control 2010 is the right platform on which to provide the next generation of control solutions."
Robinson continues: "From any point of view, RGB has an extremely impressive track record, a highly complementary portfolio of products and, importantly, a vision of control systems and next-generation control solutions that matches our own. Furthermore, on the design/documentation side, they will not only be distributing Stardraw AV and its sibling applications, but will also be using Stardraw AV in-house for their own pre-sales and support documentation, which is both an excellent showcase and endorsement for the product."
"As a technical distributor, we are constantly monitoring the market to look for new and advancing products and we now have the perfect opportunity to extend our range of control solutions," said RGB Communications MD Caroline Britt. "Stardraw will form the heart of a new control solution called 'itron', which will help our customers who are looking for a more cost effective and efficient way to integrate AV over IT networks.
"Stardraw Control solutions offer fantastic value and flexibility, as they can be deployed at a fraction of the programming time and costs of conventional, bespoke touch panel systems. We are excited to work with Stardraw who share our passion for providing reliable and technically superb products for a developing market place."
