Selkent launches game-changing equipment tracking system at Highways UK 2024

Highways UK 2024 sees the launch of the Sel-vantage Hub, an innovative onsite solution for equipment tracking and zero-downtime operations from leading UK fixings and fastenings supplier, Selkent.

The Sel-vantage Hub from Selkent is an industry-leading warehouse and asset management system that gives contractors working on large-scale shutdown, maintenance and construction projects a system that provides real-time tracking for tools, equipment and industrial supplies – which ultimately reduces delays and optimises productivity on site.

Having clear transparency of supplies and equipment maintains commercial control of a project, with real-time data to support consumable management. It also protects staff and clients on site, as the system ensures only compliant and safe equipment is used on site. And as well as providing details about the location of tools and equipment, it also tracks usage.

Using this turnkey solution will deliver 95% tool efficiency and <3% tool loss through its centralised onsite management system, helping projects to accomplish zero downtime, reduce tool replacement costs through loss, and streamline operations through increased productivity.

Shaun Bushnell, Managing Director, said:

“The Sel-vantage Hub is a game-changing offering, and we’re proud to be working in partnership with SFI Australia to bring this innovative system to the UK.

“Highways UK is the perfect platform to launch this product, and we’re excited to bring the system to our stand so our customers can see it for themselves and gain an understanding of how it operates and the many benefits it brings to construction projects.”

Selkent is in the midst of expanding its range of high quality own-brand label products with some of the newest products on the stand for customers to see. These include Sure Snap, the Rebar Buddy and the new carbide-tipped reciprocating saw blade available to view. These recently launched products offer cost-efficient quality and onsite safety benefits, forming part of Selkent’s expansion plan to provide a complete service and build efficiencies right across the supply chain.

Shaun continued: “Helping contractors meet project goals is crucial to the service we provide. Products such as the Sel-vantage Hub help contractors achieve maximum efficiency, manage onsite operations and accomplish project goals”
