SPP Pumps, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of centrifugal pumps and systems, is now manufacturing its standard products range of pumps for stock – giving customers fast access to pumps … all from the company’s base in Coleford, Forest of Dean, in the UK.
This move marks a major investment into the growth of SPP’s business across this diverse industry. Its standard pump product range offers ‘fit and forget’ replacement solutions for almost any existing pump system, for applications including: water boosting, irrigation, heating and air conditioning, fuel transfer and process cooling.
Bob Tichband, SPP’s Sales Director, comments: “Historically, SPP has not built pumps for stock, we have manufactured to order. However, we are seeing increasing demand for our standard products and this was an obvious next step – we can now offer 36 pumps of different sizes. Our aim is to stock at least 20 products at any given time, meaning we can turn customer orders around in as little as one day.”
Alperton Engineering, SPP Pumps’ Irish parnter, was one of the first to benefit from this new service, when a Eurostream pump with 4kW motor was dispatched within just 24 hours from receipt of order.
Jason Maher, Pumps Manager at Alperton, commented: “Speed of delivery and a cost effective solution was key to enabling us to win business from one of our own customers. It’s a win/win situation – we need to do something quickly, SPP helps us to do that, and everyone benefits.”
By offering this ready-made portfolio of products, SPP’s customers can benefit from quality products which are British engineered – giving reliability and efficiency across a broader portfolio of products.
Bob Tichband concludes: “At SPP Pumps we are committed to meeting industry needs when it really matters … and in this instance that is all about delivering when customers really need it. I think this move will make a really positive impact on our business and most importantly, on the lives of our customers.”
