SELECT announces new associate members

SELECT has welcomed three major new enterprises to its growing Associate Membership Scheme as it continues to attract an impressive line-up of market-leading manufacturers and organisations.

Schneider Electric, Robus LED Group and CompEx have all joined the 25 existing associates who have built mutually beneficial relationships with its member businesses over the past 18 months.

The three new associate members will now be able to engage with SELECT’s experts and members, enjoy access to a wealth of services and benefits, and work with the organisation to share the latest ideas and in-depth knowledge to the advantage of the wider industry.

Iain Mason, Director of Membership and Communications at SELECT, says, “Everyone at SELECT is delighted that enterprises of the size and stature of Schneider Electric, Robus and CompEx have joined our Associate Membership scheme.

“Becoming an associate is an opportunity for partner organisations to build stronger relationships with key players in the electrical contracting industry, and also to ally themselves with an established and successful trade body.”

SELECT, which represents around 1,250 electrical firms and 15,000 contractors across the country, launched the scheme early in 2022 to help develop a mutually complementary network of industry-specific partners.

Mr Mason adds, “Since its launch, the scheme has proved extremely popular and has allowed associates to speak to our members both through our print and digital channels and also face-to-face at the many events we run across Scotland throughout the year.

“It has also strengthened our own relationship with some of the industry’s most renowned names and allowed us to develop and grow events such as our Toolbox Talks, President’s Cup and President’s Lunch.”

David Pownall, Vice President of Services at Schneider Electric UK & Ireland, says, “We have had a long and fruitful association with SELECT over the years, including sponsoring organisation awards, and we are proud to be included in an Associate Membership scheme which brings so many benefits to the electrical industry.”
