What is Tool Repatriation?

Opus has extensive experience in tool repatriation and has a highly active tool repatriation programme. We understand the reasons for having production or tooling carried out overseas, but we believe we can do it better here in the UK in terms of both price and service.

Crude oil, from which most polymers are derived, is priced consistently around the world. Therefore, when costs are significantly lower overseas, even where production is almost fully automated, one must ask how this is achieved. Testing polymers to determine their exact composition is technically difficult and, in many cases, inconclusive. Why take the risk? Choose a trusted UK company that follows the rules, uses certified polymers and provides excellent service at a surprisingly competitive price.

Our tool repatriation programme offers:

• Flexible production runs
• The prestige of UK manufacturing, that will help gain trust and sales in your market.
• Shorter lead times
• Fast deliveries
• Full ISO 9001 BSI certification
• UK support and expertise

If you are thinking of bringing tools back to the UK, or interested in a comparison, please get in touch and we will be happy to discuss. Opus has done this many times and will be happy to help with all aspects of the process.
