Hyundai Kia Expand Deployment of Ubisense Solution
CAMBRIDGE, England, September 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Ubisense Group Plc ("Ubisense" or the "Company") (LSE:UBI), the real time, location
based lean manufacturing solutions company, is pleased to announce the expansion of its
installation with Hyundai Kia in Asia.
This phase two expansion follows the success of the pilot installation deployed just
two months ago to their assembly line manufacturing plant in South Korea.
Richard Green, Ubisense Chief Executive Officer, said that Hyundai's decision to
increase its RTLS installation reinforces their previous deployment decision and
emphasizes growing traction Ubisense's solution is receiving around the world.
"We took the decision to expand into the Asia Pacific region to focus initially on the
automotive industry, within which South Korea represents a significant opportunity. We are
therefore particularly pleased to strengthen our relationship with Hyundai Kia further,"
Mr Green said.
"Ubisense now supplies RTLS products and solutions to eight of the top fifteen
automotive manufacturers globally. Hyundai Kia is a great example of the way in which our
customers start using our products, subsequently rapidly request further coverage across
the original plant, and then to the rest of their plants globally. By building such close
relationships, we continue to innovate and increase the value we add to our customers over
the long term."
Ubisense's RTLS solution is already deployed under a global license agreement with BMW
and installed in their plants across Europe, Asia and North America.
