Services
Industrial Supply Distribution
We provide a comprehensive range of industrial products including fasteners, tools, and safety equipment. Our inventory supports sectors like manufacturing, construction, and engineering. With access to Troy UK's resources, we ensure competitive pricing and rapid order fulfillment for businesses of all sizes.
Kanban Systems
Our Kanban bin system manages small components and consumables with zero customer involvement beyond consumption tracking. This reduces inventory costs, eliminates purchasing administration, and ensures full batch traceability for improved efficiency in production environments.
Consignment Stock
We supply pre-agreed stock quantities for monthly usage, invoicing only for consumed items. This reduces capital tied in inventory while ensuring 24/7 availability through contractual agreements with flexible pricing options.
Just-In-Time Delivery
Scheduled deliveries align with client production cycles, minimising storage costs and waste. Contracts include fixed pricing and flexible order quantities to adapt to fluctuating demand while maintaining streamlined procurement processes.
Kitting Services
Multiple components are assembled into custom kits under single item numbers, reducing purchase orders and administrative costs. Clients control packaging formats and inventory tracking for enhanced operational efficiency.
