I have been dealing with H24 from their very beginning and to this day their service has been second to none. We had used everyone else in the hose market prior to H24 starting up and hose repairs were just a nightmare. And forget after hours call outs; they just didn’t exist. From the moment H24 started they set out and continue to maintain the highest level of customer service in all areas of their business and everyone that you will deal with. Their product knowledge and prompt, efficient service has saved us thousands upon thousands of dollars over the years. Pete Fahey • Hoses24 customer since 2012

INSTALLATION

AUDIT INSPECTIONS

Hoses24’s own comprehensive reporting application provides a breakdown of findings and recommendations following a machine audit inspection. It includes:

Our people each work to exceptionally high standards. Each team member is competent and fully certified in hose manufacturing and product knowledge, so you can be confident that we can assist with any size of installation.

MAINTENANCE VISUAL MACHINE ASSESSMENTS

With the Hoses24 team’s eye for detail, audit inspections can actively help prevent unscheduled production stoppages, saving you time, money and stress.

No Hoses24 technician ever leaves a customer’s machine or workshop without conducting a visual check to ensure nothing else requires attention. It’s all part of the service.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

This extra level of care is an important differentiator that sets us apart from our competitors. Most importantly, this simple but effective demonstration of our commitment to service minimises the frequency – and associated costs – of unexpected breakdowns for our customers.

Many Hoses24 customers have implemented our successful preventative maintenance strategy, resulting in reduction of costly and inopportune breakdowns. Hoses24 will conduct a comprehensive survey of your equipment before designing a regular servicing program including thorough testing and maintenance shutdowns to ensure your machines always remain fully operational.

MACHINE MAINTENANCE DATABASE The Hoses24 machine maintenance database is invaluable to so many customers. This provides information on the condition of an individual machine, the hose assemblies made and by whom, which fittings/hose were used, plus the orientation, hours of the machine, and a list of hoses to monitor till the next service interval.

24/7 EMERGENCY SUPPORT With Hoses24 acting as your 24/7 support team, breakdowns do not have to mean catastrophe.

Using this information, we can ensure you are achieving the correct service life from the assembly supplied, and premake hose assemblies to minimise machine downtime when required.

Our round the clock service includes dedicated full-time night shift technicians in each location we operate, ensuring your equipment can be maintained 24 hours a day. Our decision to employ both day and night shift operators reduces the risk of fatigue-related incidents, which frequently occur in the hose and fittings industry as a result of suppliers offering 24/7 coverage on a call-out basis only.

Need to source a hard-to-find part or specialised product? Even something not related to fluid transfer? Our dedicated team of parts interpreters will happily source it on your behalf. David Jones • Hoses24 Founder and Director

Our dedicated day and night availability and fully-stocked, mine-compliant mobile workshops mean that we are always ready to go, able to respond as soon as we receive your call.

Hose protection – identifying the potential for or existing light damage Leak detection – eliminating leaks from seals, seats and O-rings Future monitoring – logging of hoses with potential to fall below standards Hose replacement – flagging of defective hoses for replacement to avoid high-risk incidents.

Hoses24 remains a business where family values are at the centre of our strong, tightknit culture. It’s a place where each individual has a role in making a difference. Our vision of ‘unstoppable production’ is being achieved by our people providing unrivalled service.


THE HOSES24 STORY FROM VERY HUMBLE BEGINNINGS IN EMERALD, CENTRAL QUEENSLAND, IN 2012, HOSES24 HAS EVOLVED FROM A SINGLE-TRUCK OPERATION AND JUST ONE CUSTOMER TO NOW SERVICING HUNDREDS OF CUSTOMERS ACROSS AUSTRALIA.

Our single mobile service workshop has transformed into a fleet of purpose-built, fully-stocked, mine-site approved mobile workshops carrying many thousands of parts to meet the needs of our customers.

We work with fluids and are fluent in understanding our customers’ needs. This is evident in our adaptable approach where we integrate our internal processes to best suit customers’ requirements.

Founder and Director, Dave Jones, established Hoses24 with a clear vision to deliver superior service that keeps customers’ equipment in motion. It’s a vision that has not changed. In fact, it’s only become clearer.

Hoses24 remains a business where family values are at the centre of our strong, tight-knit culture. It’s a place where each individual has a role in making a difference. Our vision of ‘unstoppable production’ is being achieved by our people providing unrivalled service. It’s why we choose individuals not just for their technical ability, but for their connection with our team, their customer focus and their determination to deliver service excellence, not merely perform a task.’

‘Our vision is to be the most nationally recognised brand within our industry. But we’re not doing that through hoses and fittings; we’re doing that through our people. There’s a big difference between being the best company and having individuals who’ve earned the right to be the biggest name in the industry through the service we provide to customers every single day. We focus on building a culture where everyone matters because we really are nothing without our people.
