Service Level Improvements at EXAIR

Value

At EXAIR Corporation, we are always striving to improve our lead times and service levels for our customers. Good customer service, backed up with excellent technical service from our Application Engineering Department is just one of the ways in which we continue to be the industry leader.

Another important difference that sets us apart from our imitators is that we listen to our customers and we respond to their needs by developing products that are relevant to solving the types of industrial problems that our customers encounter. No company can be all things to all people, but within our area of expertise, we are always first to market with newly developed products. Our imitators copy the idea and follow our lead with about a 3 – 6 month delay and release their version as if it were some new revolution in technology.

Besides numerous, new product introductions, we have stepped up the game with our offering for some of the items in our product groups. Stocked items ship same day on orders we receive by 3:00 pm Eastern. Following is a list of some of the service improvements we’ve made:

–          Our long Ion Bars (standard lengths from 60” to 96” long) are now in STOCK.

–          We have added new sizes of Digital Flow Meter to our offering as stocked items (included new sizes: ½”, ¾”, 1-1/2”, 2-1/2”, 3” and 4” in both SCFM and M3/hr displays).

–          All Cabinet Cooler systems are in STOCK, including 316 SS Cabinet Cooler Systems and non-hazardous purge NHP Cabinet Cooler Systems and can ship same day.

–          All our Electronic Flow Controllers (EFC) and associated systems which include them are now stocked items.

–          All of our Deluxe Kits are now stocked items.

–          All Electronic Temperature Controllers (ETC) and associated Cabinet Cooler Systems are stocked items.

–          Lead time for Long Super Ion Air Knives has been reduced from 3 business days to 1.

–          We can manufacture and ship a custom length air knife in 3 business days (you tell us the length, we’ll make it). That is reduced from 5 days.

–          If you are a direct overseas customer of EXAIR products, we can ship your order in 1 day.

Some might say, “big deal, so you’ve added some items to stock that you didn’t previously have”. One could view it that way if they wanted to. But, to the customer who has a machine down and needs help right away, these are the ways in which we set ourselves apart and create value for our customers. Manufacturing our own products affords us this control over the processes to make adjustments so our deliveries are better.

EXAIR, as a company, works on the premise to be easy to do business with. Above is only a small portion of the many things we do every day to bring our solutions to life for our customers in a prudent, familiar and friendly way. Give us a chance to impress you. I guarantee we will not let you down.

Is It Me or My Memory?

memory

I used to have all our part numbers and most of their specs committed to memory. As of late, I have not had the immediate recall that I used to. I fretted over the loss of command until I realized it was not me. Over the last two years EXAIR has introduced 325 new products!!


Shortlist of new product:

And the list goes on. There are too many to list them all. To see them request to receive our new 168 page catalog.

Our product development program is customer driven which makes it exciting for me. Knowing that these are bona fide customer requested products and not some gimmicky fluff and puff, I feel confident in recommending them to my customers.

I would welcome you to challenge my command of recall on your next compressed air project. Give me a call at 1-800-903-9247.

Vale, vale — Egeshegedre!

Barco

Last week found me in Barcelona, Spain and Budapest, Hungary to conduct training sessions for our distributors.  In each city we were also pleased to welcome distributors from other countries as well.

On this trip I travelled into Barcelona by way of Atlanta.  The flight was long, but the plane was nice and I caught a few movies I’d been wanting to see.  After arriving in Spain I went to our distributor’s facility which was well equipped for training as well as various product demonstrations.  We brought in the regional sales reps and technical personnel (from both Spain and the United Kingdom) for a full training session on all EXAIR products.

After days of training and many hours of application centered conversations, we joined together along the pier near the Rambla for a good bite.  I snapped the picture above of the view from our table.

When the training was complete in Barcelona, I ventured to Budapest to repeat the agenda with our distributor there.  We were joined by our distributors from Bulgaria and Norway, both of whom were wonderfully pleasant and had great humor!  Along our way to dinner one evening we made a stop at a popular local destination to view the city center of Budapest.

Buda

This photo shows the scope of our distributor’s beautiful city.  On the left is the former city of Buda, and on the right is the former city of Pest.  Now, they are one in the same following unification in the 19th century.

I’d like to extend a huge thank you to all of our distributor involved in these training sessions.  Not only was EXAIR well received, we were and are well supported.  For contact information of an EXAIR distributor in your area, please don’t hesitate to email me directly at LeeEvans@EXAIR.com.
