Could you give us a bit of an insight into Hammond as a company?
Hammond is a Canadian-owned family business which has been in existence for over 100 years. It was founded by a keen engineer who was developing a range of enclosures and transformers, which is primarily still the product base that we have today.

We started operating in Europe around 25 years ago, and we serve all of Europe from our base in Basingstoke, stocking products and delivering to our distributors and customers.

The global product range encompasses everything from small plastic enclosures and miniature enclosures to large steel, street-side furniture, 19-inch racks, and power products.

So, what makes Hammond different? What enables you to serve your customers well?
