IPD Announces Transition of Stahl Product Portfolio to EX Engineering
IPD is pleased to announce the transition of IPD's R.STAHL product portfolio to EX Engineering, another IPD Group business, effective 1st January, 2026.
This strategic transition aligns the R.STAHL product range with the IPD Group business, best positioned to deliver the highest level of expertise and service to our customers.
EX Engineering, a recognised leader in hazardous area electrical products and solutions, will now manage the full R.STAHL portfolio nationally across Australia, while ensuring continued support for current IPD customers and new customers with an expanded focus on specialised engineering capabilities.
“Our customers are at the heart of everything we do. This transition ensures our customers will have access to the R.STAHL range through EX Engineering, with no change to service levels or the purchasing experience. This transition also allows customers to access EX Engineering’s technical expertise and accredited facilities, to deliver R.STAHL products & custom solutions.” James Feltham, Executive General Manager – Sales, IPD.
EX Engineering has close to 15 years of experience providing engineered hazardous area electrical solutions. It operates a dedicated R.STAHL and IECEx accredited workshop capable of building tailored solutions to suit unique project requirements and repairing Ex-rated equipment.
“EX Engineering is proud to assume the national distributorship of R. STAHL in Australia. Having been a R. STAHL partner since 2016, we have extensive in-house expertise not only in hazardous area solutions but also across the R. STAHL product range. With dedicated workshops in both Perth and Sydney, this transition enhances our ability to deliver local assembly, customisation, and technical support. R. STAHL’s globally recognised EX solutions align perfectly with EX Engineering’s specialist capabilities, and we look forward to continuing to deliver exceptional value and service to our customers nationwide.” Scott Bryant, 2IC – Ex Engineering Pty Ltd
This change is part of IPD Group’s ongoing strategy to align its product and service portfolios with the businesses within the Group that are the best equipped to provide the highest levels of technical knowledge and customer service.
Customers can continue to purchase R.STAHL products directly from EX Engineering with the same trusted support they have always received.
