Palmyra, N.Y. (PRWEB) April 19, 2006 -– Garlock Sealing Technologies, a leader in fluid sealing technology for more than 100 years, has launched its completely redesigned Web site ( www.garlock.com ) aimed at educating customers and distributors.
The new site has a sleek, modern, modular look that’s packed with information that customers need on a daily basis. Unlike most sites that are “electronic brochures,” Garlock.com is offers timely, relevant information – from detailed product specifications to helpful tools to regional news and events. The home page features Flash animations of new products, featured products, and links several content areas, including:
Industries: Users select their specific vertical market (e.g., chemical processing or pharmaceuticals) from a drop-down menu and an interactive map appears with a typical equipment setup – and “hot spots” indicating where Garlock products can be used. When users roll over these spots, product information appears – and just one click brings up a page with complete product information, including features and benefits.
Products: Under this drop-down menu, users can choose from Garlock’s wide range of products (e.g., compression packing or hydraulic components). With the Product Selector, users define their parameters and the site searches for relevant products. Users can also browse Garlock’s product selection by industry.
Services: This area features the InfoZone – a virtual library of literature, marketing materials, and industry/product related information. It also houses information on Garlock’s training opportunities, Research & Development, and Garlock’s on-line store.
Solutions: Here, users will find helpful engineering tools, a glossary, white papers, and case studies. Additional resources include an interactive chemical resistance chart, bolt torque tables, and installation guidelines.
Representative Locator: Garlock has created a graphical, user-friendly way for customers to quickly find a Garlock representative. They start by clicking a continent, then rollover “hot spots” on the map to find rep information instantly.
Recent News: A huge benefit to the new site is the ability to customize it for Garlock’s global locations. Customers can access fresh, pertinent, region-specific content – including local industry news and events. The North American site is currently available; Phase 2 will feature rollouts in Mexico, South America, Germany, France, and Great Britain; and Phase 3 will comprise the Italian, Chinese, and Russian versions of the site.
