GPI International has been in business for 15 years serving the Colombia power generation market and other industrial markets from the US, with a sister facility that has been doing business for 35 years inside Colombia. These two facilities bring their combined experience to customers of Meggitt’s Wilcoxon Research piezoelectric accelerometers, velocity sensors, cables, mounting accessories, vibration alarms, vibration transmitters, 4-20 mA vibration sensors and hazardous area sensors.
