DAANET was formed in 2003 by the then Australian Rockwell Automation Distributors and functioned as a cooperative responsible for representing the latest industrial automation products. Remtron has always been the principal distributor behind the DAANET business. This is because Remtron understood the value that B&R, Secomea and Idem products could deliver to our customers. We are now extremely excited to welcome DAANET into the Remtron Group.
