bauma Munich in a Word – WOW!
The 2013 edition of bauma Munich was so massive in it's scope that it
almost bordered on sensory overload. With 530,000 visitors from over 200
countries (This edition of bauma broke all previous records for exhibitor
numbers and exhibition space),the event was at least two-and-a-half times
larger than bauma China in 2012 and almost five-times as large as the 2010
edition of ConExpo. As an attendee, you needed to be prepared with a plan
of which exhibitor you were going to visit and where they were located in
the many buildings and outside display areas. Wearing comfortable shoes was
a must!
bauma Munich is always an exciting show for TriMark because it
attracts many of our global OEM customers. These customers attend to view
and evaluate new and exciting products from TriMark and other
vendors that may be used in their own future products.

Global Market Footprint with Local Content and Contact
|
|
|
|
 If you had the opportunity to attend the
recent bauma Munich tradeshow you know how important these huge
international tradeshows have become. You will see specific details in the
attached article, but this show attracted 530,000 visitors from 200
countries. Companies such as TriMark make a huge investment every
year to participate in these events because it is increasingly important to
promote our products and services where our customers and prospects are
"manufacturing and shopping." Each year we evaluate which
tradeshows we need to attend and this list keeps growing as our markets,
both geographically and industry specific, keep expanding. For example, we
participated in bauma India for the first time this year because we have
been experiencing a real up tick in inquires and interest from that region
and wanted to introduce our products, resources and capabilities to one of
the most rapidly expanding markets in the world.
As our markets expand one of the challenges is determining how we get those
products to market in an efficient manner. One strategy is to use the full
global resources of our company while also supplying products containing
local content which is becoming an increasingly frequent mandate from our
customers. It is also important to many of our customers that we have a
local contact available to them for as a resource for consultation. Easier
said than done to find the right fit but we have made some great strides in
making this type of resource available.
Sales continue to be strong and for this we are grateful to our loyal
customers who have placed their trust and faith in TriMark's ability
to meet the challenges in an increasingly competitive and regulatory-driven
world.
Summer here in Iowa has finally arrived after a much-cooler than average
spring. Parts of Iowa experienced the wettest May and June on record!
Wherever you are please have a fun and safe summer season.

TriMark is Your Single Source Solution for Rotary
Latches
|
|
|
|
 While we are very
proud of the fact that we have now produced over 30 million rotary latches,
we have to remember that each and every one of those latches is part of a
larger solution. And, an increasing number of TriMark's customers
have come to rely on us as being a Single Source Solution not just for
rotary latches, but for all of their access hardware requirements.
The concept of Single Source Solutions focuses on providing TriMark
customers with a single source of design, engineering, technical and manufacturing
talent that can satisfy all of your access hardware related needs, whether
you are looking for a basic Off-the-Shelf hardware solution utilizing
existing rotary latch components, a fully custom and proprietary solution,
or one that may fit between these solution bookends, TriMark has the
expertise, experience and knowledge, to find just the right solution for
YOU.
Off-the-Shelf Solutions with the
Added Benefit of Customization
TriMark's global customers are demanding
off-the-shelf rotary latch solutions because of the many new products they
introduce every year. They want to minimize the amount of time it takes to
go from concept to finished product. With TriMark's strong
reputation for durability and reliability, these off-the-shelf product solutions
can also be customized to meet a customer's specific platform needs. With a
broad selection of rotary latch sizes, versions, features and options to
meet virtually any application, TriMark is able to simplify the
process while meeting each customer's unique needs.
Products range from basic stand-alone designs to integrated linkages for
both FMVSS 206 and non-206 applications. All TriMark rotary latches
feature the highest levels of quality, security and strength and are
covered by TriMark's comprehensive worldwide warranty.
TriMark is currently producing about 2 million units per year for a
variety of customers and industries. These rotary latches, spanning the
duty range from Light to Ultra Heavy-Duty, are produced as stand-alone
products as well as being integrated into other finished products such as
paddle handles and door modules. Integration of electronics is also
available providing power locking, power release and door open sensing
providing a complete "mechatronics" solution.

TriMark's Attendance at Work Truck Show a Success
with a Near-record Crowd
|
|
|
|
 The 2013 edition of the Work Truck Show
has been deemed a major success by TriMark as well as the National
Truck Equipment Assn. (NTEA). This year's show had a verified attendance of
10,351 people, just 51 shy of the record set last year, organizers said, despite
the massive snowstorm that rolled across the country stranding many who had
planned to attend.
Many of the show's attendees stopped at the TriMark booth to check
out TriMark's 030-2500 2-point Paddle Handle which is
designed for storage, compartment and access doors for light to medium duty
on or off-road applications. It features 2-point pivot activation with
robust construction for a very cost effective price.
Also of interest was TriMark exclusive e-ASK (electronic
Access & Security Keyless-entry) technology. The featured product was a
programmable keyless touch pad – the 540-0125 e-PAD with relays -
with a battery pack utilizing 8-AA batteries. With over 3,000 possible code
combinations with a tamper lock-out feature as well a lighted keypad for
more effective night time usage, it has become just the solution that OEM
service body and storage compartment manufacturers were seeking.
This stand-alone keypad provides cost-effective and simple power door
lock/door latch and unlatch control. The keypad features on-board relays
and provides increased security and convenience with limited functionality
to minimize system and installation cost. Demanding users in the travel
trailer, tool box, and tow and motorized RV market will appreciate the
high-end functionality at a value price.
Utilizing the e-ASK technology, TriMark has been on the
cutting edge in the development of power locking solutions for compartment
doors. Where both convenience and security are a requirement, TriMark
has the answer.
