Intec is an integrated MEP, LEV and fire and life safety systems and solutions provider and the availability of comprehensive services supplied by its global partners is a boon to the construction and engineering industry.

Managing Director, Intec Systems and Solutions, Janaka Somananda who introduces new technology to the Asian region, said that the company expects to foray further into markets in the SAARC region and South East Asia, while offering high quality, cost effective technology solutions. "Our network of foreign principals will help provide a professional technical service to local clients," he said. The reduction of Customs duty on construction machinery and equipment in the 2012 Budget has helped the company improve business.

"Our mission is to ensure that our clients have state-of-the-art solutions as Sri Lanka is in an accelerated development phase, where infrastructure development has gained momentum. There is a palpable need to give the country the tools and avenues to ensure that the technology solutions used are of international standard," he said.
