This month from the editor
Dear Readers/Advertisers,
Getting 2011 all wrapped up for Christmas
With the festive season just around the corner and 2012 not far behind, I’ve been
reflecting on what a year it’s been for the Power Transmission Review team.
Not only have we successfully launched our new, comprehensive and fully interactive
website but we’ve received incredible feedback on it from the industry, too. So if you
haven’t visited yet, please do take a look at www.ptreview.co.uk.
You’ll see our website gives you all the industry latest, from features, profiles and
products to events and recruitment. Plus you can sign up for our FREE newsletter and
have it delivered directly to your inbox.
New Year, new magazine
Incredibly, PTR has been going from strength to strength for over seven years. Since our
launch in early 2004 we’ve become the leading publication in the UK power transmission
distributor industry.
But 2012 promises to be our most exciting year since 2004. Why Because we’re
planning to amalgamate PTR with its popular sister publication dedicated to the fluid and
hydraulic power industry, FPR.
We believe our new ‘integrated’ magazine will be ‘The ONE leading voice for the Fluid,
Power & Transmission Industry.’ And we hope upon reading it you will think so as well.
Together, our new website and our new magazine offer you unbeatable news, information
and, of course, opportunities to promote a business, its products and services - whether
you’re an advertiser, advertising agency or PR consultancy.
On that positive note, we do welcome your feedback, comments, views and news so
please feel free to e-mail me, The Editor - tony@internalaffairs.co.uk or call me on
01202 300033.
