Supporting our business with technology that provides accurate information about loads at a safe distance by utilising state of the art bluetooth and other wireless technologies is a natural fit. We are confident that the equipment will be integral to continued growth of the business as the offshore sector in Thailand and further afield returns to normality and prosperity, particularly as we enter the second half of the year.”
