Verder Can Stop Your Business Losing Thousands

Not all companies go out of their way to find the best solution for a pumping problem. Verder Pumps SA (VPSA) director Keith Gass said: "At VPSA, we know all pump types have advantages and may bear some shortcomings, depending on the type of application it is specified for."
Some companies, when faced with a limited capacity of pump technology and/or products, often make the pump "fit" the client's needs without ensuring the product is the best solution for the application.
In addition, clients are looking to buy down in the present economic situation, but often overlook the additional costs of energy consumption, loss of production due to downtime and maintenance. Life-cycle costing is extremely important to retain current as well as long-term profitability.
Mr Gass said: "Upgrading to more productive pumps can be perceived to be too expensive for many operations to undertake. However, there are times when it is necessary. For instance, if your plant is unproductive due to no spare parts stock availability, downtime costs outweighs your production intake, high energy consumption, or in some instances where maintenance bills are high often exceeding the new pump's initial purchase price. Changing or upgrading can be avoided by correctly specifying the right pumps for any given application in the first place."
Mr Gass said many clients were reluctant to change pumps because they were not made aware of all the technology available. "More often than not, saying 'because we have always used these pumps' does not mean the pumps are ideally suited to the application," he said.
"The need for more knowledge, maintenance issues and technical knowledge of other pump technologies are the main reasons behind clients' aversion to change. Once again, they could be wasting thousands of rands on production and downtime and/or maintenance."
The difference is that VPSA does care about your process. 'Solutions in pumping technology' are indeed what we strive for at VPSA.
