TL Jones Opens New Office In Australia

Elevator safety and passenger information specialist TL Jones is further expanding with its first Australian facility. A company with its origins in Christchurch, TL Jones has already an extensive network around the Asia Pacific region, but the recently opened office in Brisbane is the company’s first in Australia.

Chris Stoelhorst, Divisional Managing Director, is excited about the move. “The opening of our initial Australian facility in Brisbane in May is an exciting event in the long history of the T L Jones company and one that allows us to better serve our customers needs for our advanced elevator safety and building display products.” he says.

The Halma Elevator and Building Products division includes 25 sales and engineering offices around the world including 11 T L Jones facilities in the Asia Pacific Middle East region. TL Jones has been active in the elevator industry since 1927. As part of the Halma Group, TL Jones represents all the Halma Elevator Safety Division products, including world renowned brands MicroscanTM and PanachromeTM infrared door light curtains and E-Motive displays, along with a host of other products including the innovative new touch car operating panels from TLJ Technologies.
