Sustainability & Macroom Tool Hire and Sales
Economically
Thanks to you, our loyal customers and a bit of hard work, we’re still in business. Hiring tools & equipment offers an easy alternative to purchasing in the short or long term. It omits maintenance, storage, insurance and calibration costs as well as the cost associated with idle tools. Hiring offers an inexpensive way to test new products, with the option to ‘buy’ always available. When you hire or buy equipment from us you also get our expertise and user-guidance.
