Do these describe you as a glass processor? There is a machine sitting idle in your factory that – if you were to sell it – could fund a next big upgrade? Has business changed, so your machines are not producing enough of the type of glass needed to meet demand? Would you like to free up floor space – or gain cash to make up for a gap in earnings? Would you need to trade up to more sophisticated technology?
Although a machine may no longer fit your production needs, it still carries real monetary value that can be released through Uniglass ReLife. And even non-operational equipment can be valuable for spare parts or refurbishment projects in global markets.
Changing the second-hand glass machinery market
Uniglass and GlassBaltic have joined forces to change the way that the second-hand glass machinery market works. This is where Uniglass ReLife comes in, by providing a systematic approach to help glass processors sell a machine – and get the best value out of it.
The process begins with a simple online request – and Uniglass ReLife takes it from there. All you need to do is upload your existing machine details in the Uniglass configurator to request an estimate. The team will then review the information and follow up with the valuation. Reselling unused equipment not only frees up financial value – but also productive floor space that can be used for a new technology or additional capacity.
Then GlassBaltic takes over to refurbish, maintain and find the best home for the machine where there is new demand – sometimes even halfway across the world. They bring it back to life for someone else. What’s old for your business can be a lifeline for someone else.
What makes Uniglass ReLife’s approach different?
Uniglass ReLife have a systematic, all-in-one approach that makes reselling used machines easy. There is no need to deal with multiple parties. Once the request has been submitted, they take it from there. Uniglass and GlassBaltic handle the entire process – from valuation to refurbishment, relocation and installation.
Part of Glaston, with its decades of top-notch glass processing technology and solutions, Uniglass uses its digital capabilities to estimate a starting price for your machine. The final price depends on how fast you need to find a new home for your equipment.
GlassBaltic, in turn, has global reach and proven experience, working in the business since 2017. The company has sold machinery to 65 countries.
Together, Uniglass and GlassBaltic provide fully furbished equipment with a warranty.
Closing the loop
Ultimately, Uniglass ReLife translates into three clear benefits: unlocking capital from aging machinery, freeing production capacity and extending equipment life in a sustainable way.
