Mark Williamson, Sales and Marketing Director at Firstsight Vision commented: "I have been most impressed with all aspects in my dealings with CCS.
Their applications knowledge, wide range of products and product quality clearly demonstrate, along with their responsive nature, why they are clearly the leader in this field.
It is not often that a supplier of such quality moves into the European market afresh and I am delighted to offer such a quality offering to our customers".
