Inventory Management
Our mission is to ensure you have the components you need when you need them. At the same time, we aim to reduce your procurement and inventory costs. Our sales and service representatives understand the importance of having the right fluid system components on hand when you need them, which is why they offer inventory management, logistical assistance, and other value-added services, such as:
- Kitting (grouping products under a single part number and prepackaging them)
- Products on consignment (holding components on site at our expense until you need them)
- Automatic inventory replenishment
- Product vending equipment
- Summary billing
- Order expediting
Product Consulting
Choosing the right or wrong fluid system product can make the difference between a reliable and unreliable system. To avoid unplanned downtime and lost revenue, work with experts at your local sales and service centers to find the right fit for your needs based on pressure, temperature, CV, material compatibility, different types of valves or actuation, assembly, and many other factors. We can also provide expert consultation on corrosion resistance, leak mitigation, safety factors, and process and system accuracy and design.
