Responding to customer requests for quick delivery leading up to the promotional season, Loma is now able to supply IP69K certified inspection equipment, including metal detectors, x-rays, check weighers and replacement detector heads, within days, not months, following the launch of its new QuickShip™ programme.
“At this time of year, when producers and packers need extra capacity to fulfill increased demand due to the promotional season, we receive an influx of enquiries for metal detectors and x-ray systems from manufacturers wanting immediate delivery,” states Loma Sales Manager Tony Bryant. “To achieve a tight turnaround, we now carry stock of our most popular products guaranteeing detector head delivery within three days, metal detectors within 14 day, Combination units and X-ray systems within three weeks.”
“I don’t know of any other inspection equipment manufacturer that can offer the same lead times on premium IP69K certified systems, as it’s uncommon for OEMs to build systems into stock due to the capital risks. Prior to this programme, if a customer wanted a system straight away their only option would be to buy second hand,” explains Tony. “Rapid delivery response time is an increasing trend, with food producers experiencing volume peaks not only around Christmas, but also on receipt of a retailer contract. Of the large variety of models we’ve chosen to stock, many meet Retailer Codes of Practice, helping our customers establish a robust food safety process from the outset.”
“Loma’s QuickShip™ Programme guarantees premium inspection equipment fast – as the go-to equipment manufacturer which can supply systems meeting Retailer Codes of Practice within days not months, it enables our customers to take quick decisions as their business grows and develops,” commented Marketing Manager James Chrismas.
The QuickShip Programme includes models from Loma’s x-ray range, flagship range of patented IQ3 and IQ3+ metal detectors, its combo CW3 Checkweigher & Metal Detector system, conveyor systems and metal detector heads.
