Why cheap products can mean an expensive investment

Cheap products may seem appealing at first, but can they end up costing you more?

Although low quality products appeal to companies as the easiest and cheapest solution to their manual handling needs, this decision should not be taken lightly. In the short term cheaper products seem appealing to finance departments but long term can have a massive impact on the company.

In the short term cheaper, low-quality products are generally appealing to a company finance department. Products are received and accountants have less outgoing expenses for that financial year. However, do cheap products really offer true ‘good value’?

All industrial machinery has a lifespan. How long the life of your product lasts is normally relative to the quality of the product. We all understand that cheap machinery rarely outlives that of a high-quality item. STS believe that if a product is worth twice as much as another product but lasts for more than twice as long then it is cheaper in the long term.

STS expect their equipment to last for a lifetime, and it does. STS have a long-standing reputation and have customers with units on site longer than 12 years.

If you buy high quality equipment your company can see these positive results:

 operators use manual handling equipment;

 cost is reduced throughout the product lifetime;

 less servicing;

 safe to use with an ergonomic design;

 investment in high quality equipment .

STS believe that the cheapest option is not always the best option. Investing in the correct equipment for your company can have a massive impact on the operators and the manufacturing process. Therefore, we believe that as a Company if you buy the best equipment it will make your manual handling both safe and easy.
