Testimonials

Andy and his team were a pleasure to work with. The project met all deadlines and targets. Good communication throughout. The installation and commissioning on site went extremely well with very little downtime. I would definitely recommend Transicon to anyone else looking to replace their GEM80 PLCs with a modern solution.

Very happy with the upgrade and especially the time taken to complete the job. Would also like to give credit to the Apprentice that was brought to site with the team. I was very impressed with his skill level and must be receiving excellent training.
