Controltek Offers Hundreds of LP Solutions. One of them Is Named Tom.
Sure, we can talk about the fact that we offer more EAS and RFID tags than anyone else. Or that we have proven AM systems, RF systems, RFID systems, and the rest of the tech alphabet, too.
But it’s people like Tom Meehan that make us truly different because they’ve been in your shoes. Worked in retail LP. Wrestled with LP problems. And hired by us for their LP expertise.
After 41 years in business, we’ve learned that the best solution is never a plastic gadget with a snazzy name, but a head full of ideas. Just like the one on the left, named Tom.
