Let us go into more detail:

Warehouse logistics

We offer extensive warehouse facilities across Germany. We store your valuable training devices in dust-free and heated premises. Would you like an example? We operate a significant warehouse measuring 8,000 square metres full of exercise equipment for one customer. We fully adapt to your individual requirements – whether you need short-term interim storage or a permanent location.

Direct deliveries

We make direct deliveries across Europe to their final place of use without needing to transship the units. This is the ideal solution, for example, for more extensive installation work and very sensitive devices. Our premium distribution service is performed by installation crews, consisting of a minimum of two trained employees who work for our company.

Network transport operations

We also operate a European-wide technical distribution network for sensitive products. Our hub is centrally located in Germany. The consignments are consolidated for dispatch there and transported to the regional delivery sites. You benefit from reliable transport services because we travel to the hub every day to guarantee short delivery times. Depending on what is required, projects are managed using 2-person handling.

Professional assembly work

We transport your machines, remove them from the pallet at the site and transport them carefully to the place where you wish to have them set up. The floor and contents of your practice or gym are carefully protected to prevent any scratches or damage. Trained employees install and configure the machines, therefore making it possible to start using them quickly.

Returning devices

If necessary, we dismantle any machines that are no longer required and dispose of them in an environmentally responsible manner.

Maintenance

If required, we can assume responsibility for the maintenance work and completely manage the spare parts. As a result, we offer you the best possible help and support so that you can operate the machines at all times. We also perform repairs at your end customers’ premises or in our logistics centres.

SPORTS-TECH SOLUTIONS WITH QUALITY

We can handle the complete cycle – from picking up, delivering, assembling, installing, maintaining and storing the machines and even managing the spare parts. You benefit from our full services, but only have one contact partner.
We make use of trained personnel from the fitness sector. They are specifically instructed at our company’s own training academy and are real experts in handling the different training machines.

TAILOR-MADE TRANSPORT SERVICES

We can either use direct trips or deliveries via our network and are therefore extremely flexible when it comes to handling your projects.
We can cope with any challenge: whether we need to transport items up spiral staircases, by crane through windows, comply with tight schedules, perform complex moves or provide equipment on several floors at the same time. We clarify the underlying logistical conditions at the outset and conduct inspections of the site, if necessary.

PRECISELY TAILORED TO THE CUSTOMER

We supply your customers with the latest equipment: ranging from hotels to physiotherapy practices, gyms and public authorities or even on board cruise liners.
We can handle the complete roll-out – whether you require an individual machine or a complete range of devices. Maintaining close contact with customers is extremely important to us; we advise you and bring your projects to successful completion.
