Integrated Pump Rental responds to client ’ s emergency efficiently

Integrated Pump Rental efficiently delivers a rental service around the clock to the standards that customers requires , says MD Lee Vine . “ Actually delivering a rental service all day , every day , to the standards that the customer needs , is the core of our business model ,” Vine notes . “ When a customer is in dire need , with a dewatering problem for instance , they need a quick turnaround time with the right product available . �is is what we do ." He says the reality is that customers are in operation 24 / 7 and there are not many rental companies that can assist on this basis . Vine cites a recent case of a surface coal mine customer urgently needing to dewater a large section of the pit . “ �e requirement was for the supply and installation of nine diesel pumps with 2 000 m of lay- at hose , including ttings ,” he says . “ �e call came in at 2 pm on a Saturday ; by the early hours of Sunday morning , the installation had been completed and our customer was more than satis ed .” He highlights the accessibility of equipment as key to the success of Integrated Pump Rental . �e company maintains a comprehensive rental eet covering all needs , with the requisite te chnical supp or t for i nst a l l i ng and commissioning on site as a vital part of the service and support offering . Integrated Pump Rental provides turnkey pumping solutions for small , medium-sized and large projects , ensuring that each project is carefully assessed to ensure the appropriate response . “ While we do have off-the-shelf options available for rent , our approach is to understand the customer ' s needs and then recommend a t-for-purpose solution ,” says Vine . “ It is not a case of one-pump- ts-all when it comes to the type of pumping environment in which we operate .”
