The audits were completed successfully and without any comments.

"This designation is a significant milestone for us," says Bart Pape, technical manager of Helmholz Benelux. "It underscores our expertise in helping customers with reliable solutions for their industrial networks. With the official status of PI Competence Center, this is now recognized, and we are proud of that."

As an official PI Competence Center, Helmholz Benelux offers advice and guidance for a future-proof network architecture, based on its expertise and years of practical experience.

Training courses and workshops are also organized for engineers and maintenance teams. Furthermore, Helmholz Benelux specializes in on-site diagnostics and troubleshooting for both PROFINET and PROFIBUS.

With this combination of knowledge, service, and products, Helmholz Benelux helps companies make their industrial networks safe, efficient, and future-proof.
