Expanding the SAMP POURTIER Product Line

As part of theย SAMP and GAUDER & Co. strategic deal, SETIC will transfer part of its POURTIER lowโ€‘ and mediumโ€‘voltage product line to SAMP. Through this change, SAMP gains exclusive rights to produce and market POURTIERโ€‘designed machines under theย SAMP POURTIERย brand. This strengthens SAMPโ€™s role in the lowโ€‘ and mediumโ€‘voltage cable market and expands its rotating product portfolio.

Meanwhile, SETIC will continue producing highโ€‘speed, concentric stranders, singleโ€‘twist machines, and rigid stranders for overhead cables. Its service division,ย C2S, will keep improving its global service offering, ensuring excellent support for current and future POURTIER and SETIC equipment users.

Continued Collaboration Between SAMP and SETIC

French engineers will oversee quality and consistency. In addition,ย SAMPย will represent SETIC in key markets acrossย South America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Balkans. This cooperation strengthens both brandsโ€™ presence in emerging regions.

Integrating Daloo and POURTIER Technologies

SAMP Chinaย will keep developing and supporting Daloo machines. These, together with the newly transferred POURTIER lowโ€‘ and mediumโ€‘voltage lines and existing SAMP rotating machinery, will merge into a singleย SAMP Rotating Product Line. Therefore, SAMP can deliver a more unified and efficient solution portfolio. The company will also retain rights to use the POURTIER brand name for five years, preserving continuity for customers.
