It doesn't make sense - or does it?
Aflex Hose Products can sometimes cost up to twice the price of other PTFE lined Pharmaceutical or Chemical Hose Products.
However, accelerated life tests and customer’s experience have shown that Aflex Products have at least 3 times the service life of the equivalent competitors products in most applications.
The costs then work out something like this:
|
|
AFLEX
|
COMPETITOR
|
|
Cost of Hose(s) used
|
1 x 200 = $200
|
3 x 100 = $300
|
|
Costs of Labour and Admin to remove failed hoses and fit replacement hoses
|
NIL
|
2 x 20 = $40
|
|
Costs of Fluid escape and clean-up for each hose failure
|
NIL
|
2 x 10 = $20
|
|
Plant or Process Downtime Costs
|
NIL
|
2 x 50 = $100
|
|
TOTAL COSTS
|
$200
|
$460
|
Then there are the other considerations, like the health and safety risks if the fluid or gas which leaks is toxic or corrosive. Also, the fact that the carbon footprint to make one hose is less than for 3 hoses.
The final conclusion is clear - Aflex Hose Products help customers to reduce costs, and risks.
