“The union of Anixter and Tri-Ed makes for a very exciting combination,” Comunale says. “Anixter has built a strong global security business focused around video surveillance and access control, specifically ‘IP’ solutions. The addition of Tri-Ed’s business creates a platform to be a full-line global security distributor. It’s great for our customers, our suppliers and our combined employees.”
