Supplier Chooses Southco Latches for 2012 Summer Olympic Games Stage Assembly

CONCORDVILLE, Pa., July 26, 2012 - A supplier of premium special event flooring recently selected Southco latches to secure temporary stage assemblies at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games. The stage, which will be located at the London Olympic Park, uses Southco's R2 Concealed Butt-Joint Panel Fastening Latches for fast installation and removal.

Southco's R2 Concealed Butt-Joint Panel Fastening Latches feature heavy-duty steel construction and mount behind or within the mating panels of an application for concealed operation. Available in two tool-actuated styles, these latches deliver exceptional strength and provide sufficient pull-up action to create a tight connection and seal, making them an ideal choice for mobile, removable assemblies like stage panels, exhibits and furniture.

Authorized Southco Distributor Bisco Industries worked directly with the flooring supplier, who doubled the original order as a direct result of Southco's competitive pricing, global presence and fast lead time.

"As a leading global distributor we are pleased to partnership with Southco to represent their products and appreciate their assistance in this quick hitting, high-volume scenario where our customer needed parts quickly in a short amount of time,"[Robert Rist, VP of Sales and Marketing].
