The Company said that the agreement will allow its Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors (TVSS) to be sold to a significant number of existing and new sectors in the telecommunications and security markets which have grown rapidly in recent years as a result of Homeland Security demands.
Ben Croxton, CEO of World Energy Solutions, commented, "Circa Telecom is a leading manufacturer of telecommunications and security equipment and we are extremely pleased to have this agreement with such a high-profile company. We believe this agreement will allow both World Energy and Circa Telecom to develop a significant share of the TVSS market in both the telecommunications and security sectors."
A TVSS protects sensitive electronic equipment from power surges. The cost of permanently damaged electrical and hi-tech equipment caused by power surges is estimated to be in excess of $26 billion per year. The company said the overall market for surge suppression is growing and is now projected to be over one billion dollars a year.
"Telecommunications equipment and building security installations have enjoyed a higher priority as the requirement for protection from power surges has become more important, and we believe the growth trend will continue," noted Croxton.
Circa Telecom's Director of Sales & Marketing, Benjamin Biggs, stated, "The addition of a new, well-designed range of TVSS will enable Circa Telecom to provide a complete service to our customers. The agreement will enable both companies to service the telecommunications and security sectors more effectively with an enhanced range of products. This is an exciting extension of our product range and we are confident of making a major impact in the market."
