Assistive listening specialist Contacta Systems has named JPro as its new distributor for New Zealand.

Based in Auckland, JPro is one of the New Zealand’s leading and most experienced professional audio and AVC distribution companies and offers AVC design services, brand support and training to clients and installers. Contacta’s full range of hearing loops, RF and IR systems will be available via JPro’s dealer portal and its large network from May 2023. This will include Contacta’s market-leading window intercom systems portfolio.

‘Contacta’s reputation precedes the company, and we are thrilled to be able to offer its products to our customer base,’ says JPro Sales Director, Paul Edlin. ‘We have many years of experience with hearing loop technology, and are excited to have these RF and IR systems. This will enable us to offer a wide range of assistive listening technologies.’

Contacta has a 50-plus year history in the assistive hearing sector. The Kent-based company designs, manufactures and installs a unique range of high-quality British-made products worldwide.

‘It’s important to find the right fit when we’re looking for distributors for our products and we feel JPro is just that,’ says Contacta Head of Business Development, Ran Meyrav. ‘The company’s focus on training to ensure a solid knowledge base among its team and dealer network delivers a high-quality outcome for the client, in line with our own ethos.

‘New Zealand is a key market for our products,’ he adds. ‘There is a strong existing demand driven by accessibility legislation which mandates integration of this technology in the built environment. JPro’s presence in their landscape is strong and balanced. We look forward to a fruitful relationship.’
