SCAIME of France, one of the world's leading manufacturers of load cells, has announced the opening of its sales and technical support centre in Mahwah, New Jersey, USA. This new commercial subsidiary enables the company to be more attentive to the wishes of its North American clients as well as providing them with a better service.

Already widely represented by a network of agents and distributors in more than 35 countries across Europe and Asia, SCAIME is looking to strengthen its world presence and position itself as a global player. Equipped with two production units in Annemasse (France) and Shenzhen (China), the company already has a modern manufacturing base guaranteeing its clients the best possible quality-price ratio.

"There is an international demand for SCAIME's products and services. We are continuing a development strategy which aims to provide the best possible advice and efficient logistics wherever you may be in the world. Moreover, our determination to offer compatible and innovative solutions requires us to be permanently in touch with our clients' wishes and requirements. Setting up this subsidiary will enable us to ensure a degree of proximity which is absolutely necessary if we want to be fully associated with our North American clients," says Guy Mairot, President and CEO of SCAIME.
