Berlin, June 25, 2012. Shanghai based Wellnode is the first nanotron Technologies partner to successfully complete the leading German RTLS developer’s new rigorous partner certification program. Wellnode has been recognized as a “Certified Application and Sales Partner of nanotron Technologies GmbH for protect and find”. Wellnode resells nanotron’s system elements including anchors, tags and location server software. With nanotron’s innovative technology, Wellnode enables its customers, system integrators and OEMs, to build high throughput and cost-efficient RTLS system level solutions for a number of industries. Solutions for personal safety in mines are of particular importance.

End users of nanotron’s protect and find platforms demand competent support during system integration. By introducing the Certified Application and Sales Partner program, nanotron reacts accordingly. The new program guarantees high quality local support for System Integrators and OEMs by nanotron’s certified partner. Both technical capabilities as well as business application skills are assessed. Support engineers of the partner not only understand nanotron’s innovative CSS technology but are able also to comprehensively explain its implementation. Business application skills are required to assess the potential return on investment (ROI) of a solution early on. Technical and economic viability is clear before system integration starts.

nanotron Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Jens Albers comments, “we have been working closely with Wellnode since 2009 and are proud to have a well established and highly skilled partner in evolving high-volume RTLS markets. From the beginning Wellnode focussed on selling nanotron’s RTLS find-solutions to customers in Greater China in the country’s vast mining sector.” He adds, “We are in the process of expanding our well-trained dedicated network of skilled application and sales partners. Growth is our priority. We reach out to system integrators and leverage their specific vertical knowledge, experience and market access.”

Wellnode General Manager, Zhaoyun Zhang, explains “Wellnode is impressed with nanotron’s approach to RTLS. nanotron’s platform solutions combine accurate location awareness with inexpensive easy to install infrastructure and low-cost tags. The innovative technology is set to help widespread use in China’s mining industry as a further step to ensure safe work environments in open-cast and underground mines.”
