Promising Future Prospects for SMETS Technology

It is with great satisfaction and pride that we can say at Smets-Technology a lot of things have happened over the last 6 months.

Airport Runway Cleaner ARC 1000

During October 2009 we took part at the 17th inter airport Europe in Munich. Inter Airport Europe is an Exhibition for Airport Equipment, Technology, Design and Services, which covers a broad range of airport issues, aiming to represent this varied industry in its entirety and on an international level. We will participate in the next inter airport Europe event since the last trade fair was a complete success.

Straight away we introduced and presented our Airport Runway Cleaner ARC 1000 to customers and interested parties from Africa and the United Arab Emirates during our in-house exhibition at the legendary airport Berlin-Tempelhof. Everyone had the opportunity to drive and test the Runway Cleaner personally. During this weekend a lot of good and promising relations were established.

Pavement Friction Tester FT 256

From 25 to 28 January 2010 Smets-Technology was principal sponsor of Airport Pavement Design and Management Summit in Singapore, a trade fair implementing the latest developments in design, construction and maintenance to ensure safe and cost-effective pavements. Here we not only had the opportunity to introduce our Airport Runway Cleaner ARC 1000 but also the new Friction Tester Mu-Meter FT 256. At this summit we and our partner company RCS Contracting GmbH, focusing on runway rubber and marking removal as well as pavement friction testers, were able to establish numerous and valuable contacts. Our Airport Runway Cleaner ARC 1000 and the offered services from RCS Contracting attracted great interest. The conversations held, give us good reason to look positively into the future.

However, the greatest and most important success of the last 6 months is that we were able to record the sale and delivery of a total of 5 trucks to economically important countries such as, Dubai (1), Kuwait (2) as well as 2 trucks within the EU. Therefore, we – Smets-Technology and RCS Contracting have come to the conclusion that the recent months’ hard work has paid off and we trust to make further progress in spite of the serious economic situation since we know exactly how much our products and services are required and how outstanding they are.
