Each of these systems is supported by the efficient, customer-orientated Chronos Richardson service and spares supply.
Post-delivery the machinery is backed by on-site installation and commissioning of the equipment as an element of a dedicated after sales service ranging from preventative maintenance to remote diagnosis via telephone.
As part of a revised corporate strategy Chronos Richardson recently relocated to new premises in the Nottingham area.
This move was to a more modern industrial complex approximately four miles from their original site, with facilities for sales, manufacturing, customer services, spare parts and equipment upgrades.
The new facility is ideally situated close to several major trunk roads, including the M1, which will ensure rapid access to the transport network.
This will help the company optimise service response times and improve its manufacturing efficiency.
Chronos Richardson is maintaining its ISO9001 quality processes and the focus on supporting customer equipment sales, service and spare parts requirements.
The Chronos Richardson Group supplies manual, semi-automatic or fully automatic integrated system solutions for bagging widely differing bulk materials.
