Acal BFi - a division of Acal plc (FTSE: ACL) - announces that it has received the 2011 Distributor Gold Performance Award for EMEA from Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C). "Acal BFi developed many new business opportunities with top OEMs and generated significant growth for Honeywell during 2011, demonstrating the strong alignment of S&C's products with Acal BFi's sales strategies," said Tony Sugalski, president, Honeywell Sensing and Control. "Their success earned them our top recognition award for their major contribution last year." Acal BFi's Philippe Gruson, Electronics Division President added, "Honeywell sensors and switches are typically used in harsh applications such as military, aerospace, medical, industrial or offshore equipment. The combination of our expertise in designing for these extreme environments, with Honeywell's innovative and robust sensing and control products, enables customers to reduce the development cycle for end-products which offer the most stringent levels of reliability and integrity." The 2011 Distributor Gold Performance Award was received on behalf of Acal BFi by Paul Webster, Managing Director for Supplier Relationships & Product Management and Walther van Puijvelde, Business Development Director for Sensors. The award was presented at a Gala Dinner during the European 2012 Sales 'Kick Off' meeting held in Budapest and attended by around 120 delegates, including senior U.S. and European Honeywell managers and product personnel, in addition to representatives from Honeywell distributors and agents.
