Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about KTB

What should I do if a plant is at a standstill and a part is needed urgently?

State the reason and a realistic target date in your enquiry, and make clear whether it is a standstill, planned maintenance or restocking. This allows the right sourcing route to be chosen. Also tell us whether an equivalent part or a successor model is acceptable, as this often opens up faster options.

Can I source parts from different manufacturers through one partner?

Yes. For every part we obtain quotations from various suppliers, across manufacturers and countries. Instead of coordinating many suppliers yourself, you work with one partner. Your supplier base becomes smaller, and we combine parts from different suppliers into joint deliveries.

What does MRO mean?

MRO stands for maintenance, repair and operations. It covers all parts and materials that keep plants, machines and operations running but do not go into the end product, such as bearings, seals, drive components and wear parts.
