Refurbishing
We undertake refurbishing of products in select cases where the customer is an existing customer or commits to fresh orders. Each request is evaluated by our technical team and accepted subject to technical feasibility and mutually agreed terms and conditions.
Refurbishing differs from routine repairs and maintenance. It is a comprehensive overhaul aimed at extending the active utility life of equipment. While refurbishing may include repair tasks, it often involves additional mechanical and finishing works such as:
- Joining or repairing broken members, sheets and structural parts (welding, riveting).
- Shearing, bending and re-forming metal components.
- Fitting additional or replacement parts and spare components.
- Re-assembly, alignment and functional testing.
- Surface treatment and repainting to restore protective finish.
Note: Refurbishing is normally performed at the customer site. We do not accept used products at our factory for refurbishing because:
- Logistics (packing, transportation and handling) for used items to/from the factory make the process commercially unviable.
- On-site refurbishing reduces transit damage risk and often allows use of customer facilities for large or fixed installations.
Before accepting a refurbishing job we perform a technical evaluation to determine suitability, expected costs, lead time and whether refurbishing will be effective in extending life and performance. Some items, due to the extent of damage or lack of spare parts, may not be suitable for refurbishing.
Customers are requested to discuss refurbishment requirements at the time of inquiry to avoid inconvenience and to allow us to advise on feasibility, cost, and timelines.
