Nortek is pleased to announce that 2008 was another great year for the company. More than 1000 Doppler systems were shipped to customers in more than 50 different countries and the return repair rates were at an all time low. We sincerely hope we wil continue to be able to serve the scientific and engineering community equally well in 2009.

Looking back at 2008

Nortek greets customers as we move into the New Year!

While the final accounts are not year prepared, it is clear that revenue at Nortek AS will exceed NOK 80 million, a 20% increase from 2007.  However, the year was not only a financial success.

  • From the summer up until the end of the year, the "midlife electronics" was gradually released for the Aquadopp, Aquadopp profiler and the AWAC.  As of 1/1/2009, only the Vector midlife electronics  is not yet released.
  • The high-resolution Aquadopp profilers (1 and 2 MHz) were released worldwide.
  • Nortek arranged user symposiums in Vicksburg (US), Hangzhou (China), Hyéres (Europe), and Zoetermeer (Netherlands).
  • "NortekMed" started its operation in Toulon, France, with focus on systems sales and local service jobs. There are currently five employees in our new office on the Mediterranean Coast.

 

We all look forward to continue working with our customers and partners in 2009 -- a year where we expect to introduce several exciting new hardware and software products.
