Availability & rental
How to read the status labels on our equipment, and how to hire it.

Across the products you’ll see small coloured status labels. They tell you, at a glance, how quickly you can get a piece of equipment and on what terms, off the shelf, from stock, on hire or engineered to your requirement. This page explains each one, and is where our rental and in-stock detail lives. Most of our equipment can be supplied or hired, so if a project needs (equipment) for a campaign rather than a purchase, talk to us.
What the labels mean
| Label | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| STANDARD PRODUCT | A proven, productised design we build to a validated standard template and configure to your duty. Lower risk and faster delivery than a clean-sheet design, with a known starting point. |
| IN STOCK | A physical unit we hold and can mobilise quickly. Subject to availability at the time of enquiry – ask us what’s on the shelf. |
| FOR HIRE | Available to rent for a project or campaign rather than buy. Day, week or campaign rates; supplied with the documentation and support to put it straight to work. |
| FOR SALE | Available to purchase outright – new-build or, where noted, an existing unit. |
| ENGINEERED TO ORDER | Designed and built to your specific requirement, on our proven engineering base. The route for a bespoke duty or a non-standard interface. |
A product can carry more than one label, many are both a standard product and available for hire or sale. Where no label is shown, ask us; availability and terms depend on the unit and the timing.
Rental – equipment for a campaign, not a purchase
Renting makes sense when you need proven equipment for a defined scope without owning it: a campaign-length need, a gap in your own fleet or de-risking a job before committing to a buy. We rent our own equipment and supply it ready to work, with the HPUs, controls and technical backup to suit. We can also configure, adapt or service it for your job and back it up with spares and engineering support while it’s on hire.
