The Company
FSL Electronics Ltd. was formed in 1988 as a research and development facility and began production of its first product, the Ultrabeam® in 1990. In 1992 and 1993, FSL won SMART awards from the Department of Trade and Industry (UK) for the research and development of electronic products. In 1994 the company designed its first electronic scoreboard for a local GAA club. Since then, we have developed models for most sports and have hundreds of installations in over 100 countries.
The Company is located in Cookstown, a large town situated in the middle of Northern Ireland. From this central location, FSL services the requirements of an increasing international customer base. Housed in a new purpose-built factory, complete with offices, workshops and showroom, FSL has demonstrated their ability to respond quickly and efficiently to the demands of the industrial and electronics sectors.
Our customer base includes such household names as Buckingham Palace, Blackburn Rovers, Tarmac, and Caterpillar, with the attendant product range demanded by such a diverse group. We supply digital signage, scoreboards, gate automation, timing systems and remote controls to companies literally scattered across the world. From the Bahamas to Australia, FSL products are meeting our customers’ requirements in some of the most demanding environments. Whether it is the heat of opening furnace doors at over 2000 degrees centigrade or the pressure of World Cup cricket matches, FSL has proven to be the automatic choice.
Our credentials have also been proven at the very highest levels in international sport. We have supplied scoreboards to some of the West Indian grounds for the 2007 Cricket World Cup in St. Vincent and in the Bahamas, and have been recently selected to supply the scoreboard for the Mbombela Stadium in Durban, South Africa, one of the venues for the 2010 soccer World Cup.
Our Sports Solutions division is also developing a range of electronic fitness products, used by the Irish, English and Ulster rugby teams, All-Ireland GAA champions Tyrone, the British Olympic diving team and a series of international athletes and golf professionals.
In October 2008, FSL was selected by the international accounting firm Deloittes as one of the Top 50 fastest growing technology companies in Ireland. Our financial stability, coupled with our proven technical competence and experience, allows us to meet not only the current demands of our customers but also to ensure that we continue to service their requirements long into the future.
We look forward to welcoming you into our global customer community.
