Collaboration with accredited partners
REL works closely with TIE Services International SRL, based in Satu Mare, Romania. TIE is a British-owned, Romanian-registered company with a 7000m² fabrication facility, and is certified to ISO 9001:2000 and accredited to ISO 3834:2006, which covers the quality requirements for fusion-welding of metallic materials.
The factory has two fabrication, machining and assembly lines, each equipped with a 12.5Te crane, with a shot blasting and paint facility. Located in the north of Romania, the factory is close to the European motorway network, offering excellent road connections to Western Europe.
The factory is currently being extended to accommodate a larger machine shop with a new horizontal borer machining centre, capable of machining large components with minimal handling.
The recent acquisition of new premises adjacent to the factory means that we are able to move existing hydraulic and electrical workshops into larger dedicated workspaces with improved environmental management.
The factory is well equipped to handle the assembly and test of systems with pull and lift capacity up to 100t. Our equipment is delivered cable spooled when requested.
Global engineering support
REL is proud of the global engineering support services provided from our Romanian base. Sales support is provided through a network of agents and strategic alliances with companies in India, the US, Australia, Korea, Turkey and China.
REL, in conjunction with Romica Korea, is opening an engineering and technical support centre in Korea before the end of 2012.
