Europlacer Extends Direct Support in Europe.

Apr 11, 2017

Blakell Europlacer International Limited is excited to announce an enhancement to its infrastructure in Europe, with new resources now in place to fully support activities directly in Slovenia, Serbia and Croatia.

The company recently expanded its sales and customer support teams based at a new direct office in Trieste, Italy (Europlacer Italia Srl). Now the business, which has been well established in the region for more than a decade, is extending its Trieste operation to directly address the support needs of the Slovenian, Serbian and Croatian territories.

“We have a very strong installed base in these countries,” explains Europlacer International Sales Manager, Stephen Farragher. “Thanks to our continued growth in the Italian market, and the proximity of the Trieste office to these neighbours, it makes strategic sense to capitalise on these resources to deliver the exemplary service these customers require.”

Farragher knows that his team of professionals will match the high levels of service for which Europlacer is known – and for which it has won a succession of prestigious industry awards. “Our drive to expand our direct sales and support network infrastructure globally is working extremely well for us; this initiative is a natural continuation of that highly-effective strategy.”


The Blakell Europlacer Group comprises the Speedprint Technologies, Europlacer, and Blakell Europlacer Distribution business units. All three are active and pre-eminent in the electronic circuit board assembly sector with advanced product and service solutions for electronics manufacturers in the UK and globally. Speedprint Technologies is a provider of screen printing equipment used in surface mount assembly processes. Europlacer is a provider of surface mount component placement equipment. Blakell Europlacer Distribution augments the provision of screen printing and pick & place platforms in the UK with a range of associated equipment, including AOI, reflow and PCB handling.
