Retrofit

Retrofitting involves modernising existing equipment by integrating or modifying new components, while retaining its original structure.
This solution allows you to optimise the performance of your equipment without having to invest in new equipment.

🔧 Improved performance
Upgrade mechanical, electrical or hydraulic components for greater operational efficiency.

💰 Cost control
A cost-effective alternative to buying new equipment, retrofitting enables you to extend the life of your equipment at a lower cost.

♻️ An eco-responsible approach
Reuse rather than replace: retrofitting limits the consumption of resources and is part of a sustainable approach.

⚙️ Tailor-made solutions
Our teams integrate your operating constraints to adapt existing equipment to your new needs (adding options, upgrading to standards, etc.).
