Our services

Equipment Supply

We supply both used and new equipment, as well as rental solutions, to clients worldwide. Our global network enables short delivery times, helping customers minimize downtime. We have extensive experience in sourcing critical spare parts and equipment on short notice.


Surplus Equipment Management

We provide structured surplus equipment management using our proprietary database system. This system tracks equipment and materials from the point they are assigned for marketing and sale through to final disposition.

It includes:

  • Full inventory tracking and status updates
  • Secure storage of documentation and certificates required for reuse
  • Client access for real-time monitoring and reporting
  • Historical tracking of sold or disposed assets

This ensures transparency, compliance, and efficient lifecycle management of surplus assets.


Asset Recovery and Liquidation Services

We help clients recover value from surplus and idle equipment through efficient asset recovery and liquidation processes.

The process typically includes:

  • Review of equipment specifications and images
  • Market value assessment
  • Proposal for outsourced sales and marketing

Initial evaluations are provided at no cost and without obligation. Our goal is to maximize value while minimizing administrative burden for asset owners.


Storage Facilities

We offer storage solutions for consigned equipment and materials at multiple global locations. Where required, surplus assets can be preserved and stored under appropriate conditions to maintain value and readiness for resale.


Global Delivery and Standards

Our services are available worldwide, with no cost to clients until equipment or materials are sold.

We supply equipment in:

  • “As-is” condition
  • Fully overhauled and certified condition

Certifications may include DNV, ABS, and Lloyd’s Register (LRS), depending on client requirements.

Delivery can be arranged globally via air or sea freight.

Do You Have Surplus Equipment?

If your company holds surplus or idle equipment, Quipbrokers can help recover its value efficiently.

We begin with an initial review of your equipment, including lists and photographs, followed by a market valuation. This assessment is provided at no cost and without obligation.

If viable, we will propose commercial terms for managing the sales process. Upon agreement, we will:

  • Register the equipment in the Quipbase marketplace
  • Conduct targeted global marketing
  • Manage the sales process on your behalf

Alternatively, equipment can be listed on Quipbase without obligation. If a buyer is identified, we will contact you directly.

In some cases, Quipbrokers may purchase equipment at an agreed price, remarket it, and resell it to end buyers. All transactions are conducted in accordance with standard international trade terms and conditions.
