Rising Costs, Smarter Choices
These past few years have been a rollercoaster of challenges, with the pandemic followed by an unprecedented period of instability. Despite being out of lockdown and back on the tools, Australian trades are still feeling the pinch - soaring costs and limited resources create a new pressure labelled 'the Cost Of Living Crisis'.
One of the hardest hit industries by the Cost of Living Crisis are Civil & Construction trades. If you’re a plumber, concreter, plant operator, mining or construction firm or anything in between, you will start to feel the pinch more and more throughout 2023. To continue to be profitable in the crisis you must seek ways for optimum efficiency and cost management. It is essential to look beyond labour and vehicles; tools and machinery must also be taken into account. The traditional way of thinking often leads us to run machines until they break down, but this results in a continual decline in power output and operating costs. By taking a proactive approach to our equipment instead, we can save money in the long-run and increase profits by using the right tools from the start. Investing in quality machines that are robust and reliable can improve efficiency significantly - giving businesses a great boost.
Making The Smarter Choice
When it comes to making smart financial choices, one of the wisest decisions you can make is to switch from using oversized Diesel Trailer Compressors to the Diesel HPP13D Powerpack. Not only will this save you over $11,000 per month on fuel costs, but it offers some fantastic benefits that come with its smaller size - it can literally fit in the back of a ute and can be used for underwater tools if necessary. Plus, the Diesel HPP13D Powerpack offers all the same capabilities as your current petrol compressor, so there's no worries in terms of performance. It's simply a smarter way to operate!
Sounds too good to be true. But we ran the numbers.
