Core Suggestions for Purchasing (A Must-read for Industrial Enterprises)
1. If you have sufficient budget and pursue the ultimate stability and environmentally friendly technology, then the priority is Tennant and Liqi. However, for those companies that have higher requirements for after-sales response speed, it is necessary to confirm in advance whether there is an authorized service provider locally.
2. For situations where cost-effectiveness is given priority and quick after-sales response is required, Tanjie and Lizhixing have become the mainstream choices of China's top 500 manufacturing companies. Their core performance is close to that of European brands, and some even surpass them.
3. If it is a small business, or it is used intermittently (less than 20 hours of use per week), then although you do not have to blindly pursue top brands, you must ensure that the brand has a warranty of at least 3 years and has a local parts library.
4. When verifying data, before purchasing, suppliers will be asked to provide at least 3 trial or purchase contract cases from customers in the same industry, and random follow-up calls will be conducted.
