Machine Refurb.com is here!
New online sales platform for refurbished machinery is launched by the creators of PartsForMachines.com.
Machinerefurb.com business concept aims to find an affordable and sustainable solution to a long-existing industry problem
Machinerefurb.com is the new online business platform which brings to market manufacturer-refurbished machinery for the Automotive, Agriculture, Construction, Plant and Industrial sectors, as well as for workshops everywhere.
The new venture is a sister company to Partsformachines.com, which has, for three years, been the UK’s leading online aftermarket sales platform for machinery into the construction, plant and agriculture industries.
“As PartsForMachines has grown and our relationship with our supplier brands has strengthened, one of the things we became increasingly aware of was the issue of how the manufacturers in our sectors deal with returned goods. They are almost inevitably subject to factory refurbishment but there is no real channel dedicated to reselling them, and online they often look unappealing next to new, perfect goods. What to do, therefore, about this?” explains Machinerefurb.com and Partsformachines.com MD, Abhishek Tanwar. “So, we came up with the idea of a dedicated platform for refurbished machines and we called it…Machinerefurb.com!”
The name obviously leaves a prospective purchaser in little doubt as to what the platform is there to do. The reasoning behind the concept becoming a reality, however, has many facets to it.
Abhishek Tanwar continues: “Firstly, it offers perfectly functioning machinery to those who need it and, at a price level not otherwise available. This might mean some people or businesses having access to machines they wouldn’t normally be able to afford – and they all come with full manufacturer’s warranty. And, let’s face it, in the sectors we serve, machines get dirty quickly once you start using them. So, when you’ve used it for a short while, a machine is just a machine - whether brand new or refurbished.
“Also, and very importantly from our perspective, we are helping create a circle economy and the fact that these machines are going to be used, rather than discarded, means a lower carbon footprint, and helps contribute to a more sustainable future.
“Finally, it means our supplier partners are free of what has been a perennial headache, and, at the same time, this gives us a whole new and exciting business to develop, which we already have plans in place to enhance, once we are fully up and running.”
Machinerefurb.com is already a fully functional platform which currently has a selection of machines and accessories from leading brands in the industries they serve – the likes of Sealey, SIP and Draper.
The product offer includes tools, workshop equipment and accessories, and it already boasts a wide selection. The power tools portfolio covers items such as compressors, wood and metalworking equipment, welding gear, pressure washers and drills, all the way through to wood splitters, lawnmowers, and heating & ventilation systems. Workshop gear includes storage, tools of all sorts, workbenches, generators, cables, stands, ramps and much, much more.
Behind all of this is the same ethos that has made Partsformachines.com a market leader for its customer experience: making products easy to find and easy to buy, at a great price and with five-star customer service.
The plan is that Machinerefurb.com will also soon make servicing part of its offer and already up on the site are buying guides and product tips. There will soon also be a regular blog as part of the platform and other features aimed at making the platform THE place to come to for everything to do with Refurbished Machines.
