Thank you to all our valued customers, partners, employees, family and friends for contributing to another successful year here at Exloc US.
his year we faced a number of challenges as global markets dipped which affected a lot of our key customer base, specifically the downstream petroleum and chemical sector. Even though budgets were cut and belts tightened, companies still looked to Exloc US to assist them with their digitalization initiatives to improve efficiencies and increase safety.
Most notably, following many years of success supplying i.safe MOBILE'S market leading intrinsically safe IS930.1 tablet, this year saw the US launch of their latest generation tablet, the IS940.1. This device brings many technological advancements including 5G wireless communications and a new larger 10” display, whilst maintaining a lightweight slimline form factor which has become synonymous with i.safe's C1D1 design philosophy. We were thrilled to see receive such great feedback on the new device from our customer base with large scale deployments being rolled out straight away.
We continued to see mass adoption of the now industry standard IS-TH1 and IS530.1 intrinsically safe barcode scanning solution. This has become the gold standard for Class I Division 1 barcode scanning requirements here in the US as companies have navigated away from the obsolete Windows Mobile operating systems to the now established, secure Android operating system. Features like Android Enterprise Recommended rating from Google and a leading industrial form factor have given customers the reassurance that they have picked the right solution to move forward with when faced with difficult migration decisions.
The upstream oil and gas industry remained steady as global demand continued. Drilling and production majors continued to turn to Beka for their process indicators and displays which have been the industry standard for decades enabling crystal clear operator visualization of critical processes in some of the harshest working environments on earth.
As we look forward to 2026 we see many new potential avenues for growth and new opportunities. There is an ongoing digitalization movement to enable field workers to be better equipped with the tools and resources required to perform their job more efficiently and safely within harsh process industry environments. With new technological advances like 5G and AI, field workers can access critical information in locations never seen before with latency free performance. This will be a game changer as with better and quicker access to information, field workers can carry on with their work and get it done faster than ever before and spend as little time as possible in hazardous environments.
Thank you again for a great 2025 and here’s to an even better 2026!
