This partnership allows Farnell to offer a more holistic product portfolio, encompassing energy management, safety, control, signaling, and circuit protection. Because Lovato designs and manufactures its components in-house, Farnell can ensure high-quality, integrated solutions for complex industrial needs.
Andy Weatherill, Vice President of Global Product at Farnell, adds, “We are constantly developing our industrial offering to meet our customers’ needs. The partnership with Lovato allows us to offer a complete package of hardware, software, and technical support. This shifts our role from a traditional distributor to a true technical partner, providing comprehensive solutions in energy management and industrial control.”
Customers also benefit from Lovato’s commitment to innovation. With a century of experience and an accredited in-house R&D lab, Lovato brings high-performance products to market very quickly. Farnell customers now have early access to these advancements in motor control, safety relays, and molded-case circuit breakers.
For over 100 years, Lovato has designed and manufactured low-voltage electrical devices for industrial applications. Today, the company combines electronics, automation, and software to provide a wide range of products designed, industrialized, tested, and manufactured by Lovato to the highest quality standards. A team of designers and researchers utilizes the most advanced software tools available, while an accredited in-house testing laboratory conducts tests according to the highest national and international standards.
