Kiwi Hose & Hydraulics launched early last month with a promise to resellers and distributors of hydraulic hose and fittings to have the right product – on the shelf and at the ready – every time.

The new start-up, with premises in Auckland’s East Tamaki and Wigram in Christchurch, is determined to make a big difference to an industry often hampered by downtime due to the all too common ‘sorry, we’re out of stock’ problem.

Headed by some of the most skilled people in the industry, Kiwi Hose & Hydraulics senior management each has over 25 years of experience in the hydraulics hose and fittings business.

“We’ll be able to move fast by keeping stock levels high and we will have a very experienced team, specifically trained in the top quality brands we supply, to listen to the needs of our customers and offer the right solutions,” says Kiwi Hose & Hydraulics General Manager, Stu Randell.

The company carries an extensive product range from leading global brands Manuli, Zec, PH and Xtraflex and says it is now the largest stockist in the country of Techmaflex hydraulic assembly equipment.  

As well as providing standard product parts immediately, the company will also design and deliver hose assemblies within a 12-hour turnaround.  By committing to their supply partners to keep inventory levels up, Kiwi Hose & Hydraulics buy right and can ensure pricing is very competitive.

“We’ll deliver value without compromising on quality but most importantly, our Kiwi can-do attitude will always ensure we go that extra mile to tailor the best solutions to meet our customers’ needs,” promises Randell.
