Eylex has been appointed the exclusive Australia and New Zealand distributor for INVISIO’s tactical communications and hearing protection systems, under an agreement that includes local systems integration, support, servicing and warranty capabilities.
Eylex is part of the GME Group, following GME’s acquisition of Eylex. The companies said the distribution arrangement links GME’s local manufacturing and engineering footprint with INVISIO’s communications hardware and software, as Australia and New Zealand continue to invest in defence modernisation and sustainment.
Under the agreement, Eylex will distribute INVISIO’s products across Defence and public safety markets. Customers will be supported through in-country technical assistance, servicing, warranties and systems integration, according to the media release.
The arrangement expands on Eylex’s existing relationship with Racal Acoustics, now part of the INVISIO Group, which Eylex has represented in Australia and New Zealand since 2003.
Eylex General Manager Simon Coates said the agreement would increase the support the company can provide across both sectors.
“This expanded partnership significantly strengthens the capabilities and support we can deliver to the Defence and Public Safety sectors across Australia and New Zealand,” Mr Coates said.
“It positions us to support the industries’ evolving requirements over the coming decade, combining proven global technology with local integration, servicing and technical expertise to help build more connected, resilient and integrated forces.”
INVISIO Vice President of Sales & Marketing Mathias Rosvall said the company saw value in pairing its product portfolio with a local partner.
“Eylex has built a strong understanding of the Australian and New Zealand defence markets through its longstanding representation of Racal Acoustics,” Mr Rosvall said.
“By appointing Eylex as our exclusive in-country distributor, we are bringing together INVISIO’s complete portfolio with a partner that understands the operational needs of customers in the region.”
Eylex said it plans to present its expanded INVISIO portfolio at industry events including Land Forces in October and MILCIS in November.
