Expanding Horizons: Dual Avenues, One Vision

With the launch of Homesmart.sg, PFE Technologies is broadening its outreach. We’re not just focusing on distribution through resellers; now, with Homesmart.sg, we’re directly connecting with the end-users, giving us a direct channel to understand the real-world needs, challenges, and preferences of homeowners. These insights, in turn, empower us to serve our resellers better, equipping them with products and solutions that are fine-tuned to market demands.

These two approaches, distinct yet complementary, help us serve Singaporeans more effectively.

Looking Ahead

The launch of Homesmart.sg is just the beginning. As we move forward, our vision is to continually refine our offerings, backed by feedback from our community of users. Collaboration remains at the heart of everything we do, and together with Aqara and our network of resellers, we’re excited to shape the future of smart homes in Singapore.

PFE Technologies Partners with Aqara for Advanced Smart Home Solutions

At PFE Technologies, we’ve always been committed to innovation and evolving with the times. This year, we’re taking a significant step forward by joining hands with Aqara, a leading name in the smart home industry.

Distribution of Aqara: Here’s What’s Happening

Starting May 2021, PFE Technologies will be expanding our product portfolio to include Aqara’s range of smart home devices. This is more than just adding new products to our shelves; it’s about embracing the future and ensuring we offer our customers the latest and best in smart home technology.

Getting to Know Aqara

Since its inception in 2009, Aqara has been committed to delivering smart home products that are not only technologically superior but also user-friendly. Think smart sensors, intuitive switches, and state-of-the-art digital door locks that integrate effortlessly into daily routines.

Why Smart Homes?

It’s a valid question. The smart home industry might seem like a curveball from our usual areas of operation. Traditionally, PFE Technologies’ domain has been centered around industrial, construction, and marine sectors, serving businesses with our range of products. On the other hand, the smart home sector is predominantly catered to homeowners, directly impacting consumers in their personal spaces.

Despite the apparent differences, PFE Technologies is uniquely positioned with an extensive network of contractors, partners, and longstanding relationships in the construction and manufacturing sectors. We’re excited to offer a bridge between the advanced tech solutions of Aqara and the real-world spaces where they’ll be installed. It’s about blending the expertise of two distinct worlds for the best outcomes.

What This Means for PFE Technologies

Being in the business since 1978, we pride ourselves on our legacy, especially in our Pereseal brand, and with the distribution rights for renowned names like Soudal and Klingspor. Partnering with Aqara aligns with our vision of diversifying our offerings and stepping into new avenues. We believe that this collaboration will enable us to deliver even more advanced solutions to our customers, enhancing their overall living experience.

In Closing

In essence, this partnership is a testament to our commitment to growth and innovation. We’re confident that with Aqara’s expertise and our dedication to excellence, we’re set to redefine smart living in Singapore.

How to Keep an Open Sealant / Adhesive Cartridge for Further Use

/0 Comments/in /by
For maximising the shelf life of open cartridges, we have these tips:
1. Keep it in a cooler place. You can even keep it in the fridge to maximise open shelf life.
2. Use the attached nozzle cap (if available) to cap the nozzle after use. If the product doesn’t have a cap, you can wrap the nozzle tip with tape.
3. Do not remove the nozzle after use!
4. Every 2 weeks, remove the nozzle and replace with a new nozzle. Pump out sealant into the new nozzle. Repeat every 2 weeks.
The rationale for step 4 is that the sealant cures from the nozzle top to the bottom. As long as only the sealant within the nozzle is curing, you can still replace the nozzle and replace it with fresh material. Once the sealant cures all the way into the cartridge, you will not be able to use anymore.
For a fuller explanation, refer to this diagram below:
  1. Before opening, the material is in the cartridge
  2. Once opened, fresh material enters the nozzle as you apply the sealant
  3. If kept in storage, the material at the tip of the nozzle started to cure from its contact with air (this happens even with a nozzle cap). In the diagram above, the time of 1 week is hypothetical and for illustration only.
  4. As the product is kept in storage, it continues curing downwards into the nozzle. At this point (above), you can no longer use the cartridge with the attached nozzle as it has too much cured material. However, you can still use the contents of the cartridge if you replace a new nozzle.
  5. a. If the nozzle is not replaced, the sealant will continue curing downwards into the cartridge body itself. At this point in time, you can no longer use the cartridge. However, if you had replaced the nozzle as in 5.b., the cycle can now start again.

Do note that even with such means of extending the life of an open cartridge, it may still suffer degradation in quality, and after time may even cure from the bottom up from the plunger. It cannot be used to extend the shelf life of the product.
