Should we always follow the crowd?


What is he going on about now, I hear you say after all he’s only selling drive belts….. Well many years ago when I was starting out in this trade (yes I do have a good memory) I learnt not to follow the crowd, look at every avenue and where ever possible always strive to be better than the rest.
Sometimes in our fast paced world it’s too easy to “follow the crowd” and replace equipment, spare parts and indeed service with the “one we used before”, this no doubt will work, but is it really what is needed and should we always follow the crowd?
Here at Drive Parts Direct our philosophy when it comes to our product offering is to give our customers the range, the quality, the price and importantly the service with an offering of product that is excellent in performance, gets the job done and doesn’t come with unnecessary costs.
I know with Steigentech we have partnered with a family owned and run company with the same beliefs as mine, simply to provide a product and service that offers true value and to have a desire to be different and stand out from the crowd.
Not many manufacturers offer the range of rubber and plastic products that Steigentech can, a range that covers - V belts, Variable Speed Belts, Double Sided V Belts, Light Duty & Dry Fractional V belts, Banded belts, Moulded ribbed Belts, Poly urethane endless timing belts, metric and imperial rubber trimming belts, Polyurethane ribbed belts. Extruded open end belting, Thermoweldable belting. Along with a matting range covers Industrial rubber sheets, rubber floor mats, flooring rolls, drainage mats, speciality rubber rolls, interlocking mats and light weight conveying belts.

Remember when your belt fails, or you need a new mat, think about what you actually need and expect in performance and cost before replacing with the same brand Think Value, Think Quality, Think Steigentech & Drive Parts Direct.
