Xmas tree branches with text Happy Holidays from Quasar
2021 has been a wonderful year for our team. We’ve been fortunate to stay busy throughout the year with several exciting projects for new and existing clients being started as well as major updates of two of our own products – Quasar Control Utility and Rapid Capture & Control.
​
We are also excited to have added new products to our range as we continue to build upon our goal of supporting our clients in analyzing and mitigating their power quality issues.

Christmas hours

This year, our office officially closes for the Christmas break at midday on Wednesday 22nd December and we reopen on Monday 10th January. 
​
Emails to sales@quasar.co.nz will continue to be monitored during this time and we will respond when possible. Our support contract clients can continue to contact us on (03) 343 9159 or support@quasar.co.nz.

Thank you for your support

Thank you for your support this year.

We hope you have a safe and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Regards, 
The Quasar team

Behind-the-scenes at Quasar

Earlier in the year, our team went to Paint N Sip and spent an amazing afternoon creating a beautiful mural that is now hanging in our board room. We had a lot of fun doing this and would highly recommend it to anyone – artistic abilities are not required!  
​
We’ve also had a number of fun team challenges, birthday lunches and training days this year – find us on LinkedIn and Facebook for more photos of these.
