Walsin appoints Arrow for Northern Europe

While the deal covers Walsin’s full range, Arrow is anticipating particular interest in MLCC (multilayer ceramic chip) capacitors, chip resistors, varistors and RF products. Walsin has continually grown its business operations by placing emphasis on research and development. As a result, the company’s 250 R&D staff have accrued more than 70 patents in the past six years.

Chris McAneny, marketing director, Arrow Northern Europe, commented: “Arrow is constantly working to build the broadest technology portfolio in order to provide solutions to meet our customers’ needs. This agreement with Walsin makes a range of innovative passive components available to our customers.”

Alphonse Willems, director, sales and marketing, Walsin Technology, said: “Arrow and Walsin already have a strong relationship in Europe. Arrow’s continued investment in engineering and technical support for passive, electromechanical and connector products in northern Europe makes this the ideal time to extend our collaboration.”
