Total Coating Systems has relocated to a bigger and better facility in Loughborough, Leicestershire. Situated in Monarch Way on a well-known trading estate just off the A604, TCS reports that the move has seen strong growth in demand for the company’s services – especially with its purpose-made trade counter and easy access and parking.
TCS has long been recognised as one of the industry’s definitive specialists in application technology of surface coatings. From all manner of fluid handling equipment and application systems to ovens and dryers, the combined experience, talent and commitment of the four-man TCS team is beyond question.
The desire to upgrade the TCS facilities has been a long-held view of company owner, Pete Stocks: “We have felt we needed to move for some time now. Our previous premises was a little disjointed, had access issues and didn’t offer us an easy way to serve trade customers. Similar to a lot of businesses, we also waited until the recession eased before making the decision to move. Even then, it was about finding the right property for our needs, both now and in the future. But we got lucky in that respect, and an ideal location and building became available – and we’ve already seen an improvement in visibility and accessibility with our new address.”
Established in 2003, TCS is a one-stop shop for the majority of aspects of enabling effective surface finishing. Working with a number of key trade partners, TCS products include: conventional spray systems; electrostatic systems; HVLP systems; air-driven airless; airless; air-assisted airless units; electric, pneumatic and hydraulically driven; spray guns; agitators; paint pumps; pump lifts; paint heaters; hot spray; plural component; metering and dosing; hoses; controls; extraction; conveyors and ovens.
The company also conducts product testing saying that the ability to develop with customers is a pre-requsite. “We are always happy to work alongside our customer, testing their products to ensure they have the right equipment for both the product and the job,” says Pete.
TCS also boasts a comprehensive stock of service parts and spares for practically every make of popular spray equipment on the market. One of the key benefits the new facility has meant to customers is its service capability.
“I believe our servicing activities have been more than acceptable when we were at our old premises,” said Pete, “but given the space and facilities where we are located now, I expect us to be doubling the speed of our response – and this obviously means we can give customers a faster turnaround and meaning less downtime for them.”
The TCS engineers all have proven track records and are trained on and fully conversant with most makes of paint application and finishing equipment, process drying and product conveying plant.”
Being centrally-located, the company can reach customers within hours of an urgent request via its 24hr helpline. The company’s informative website features a shop with online payment options.
TCS clearly takes pride in what it does and has deservedly earned a reputation for delivering quality work for a reasonable price. This pragmatic approach, allied to an outstanding service ethos, can only positively affect the running of almost any finishing operation. So take time to catch up with finishing’s fab’ four at their new premises soon!
