The Sly Approach , Why We are Different
Many companies make air pollution control equipment, but none have been doing it as long as Sly.
Over a century has passed since our original patent
for cloth dust collector. Over the years, we've learned
plenty about the application and fabrication of dust collectors
and scrubbers. Here are the main points:
"In the pollution control business, conservative application of technology is best."
Equipment misapplication has no place in the air pollution
control business. Not only is improper equipment apt to
fall short of collection requirements, it is oftentimes
more expensive to operate than the proper machinery. For
example,
incorrect sizing and improper media choice can easily lead
to excessive maintenance and costly downtime. When you
deal with Sly, we have your best long term air pollution
control interests in mind.
"We believe in fitting the equipment to the customer's needs, not the customer to the equipment's capabilities."
This approach
earns us the respect and repeat business of many sophisticated
buyers
of air pollution
control equipment. These people, many of whom buy dozens
of dust collectors or scrubbers every few years, have always
represented a large portion of our customer base.
"We build our own equipment...for some very good reasons."
Part of the reason Sly can custom-make a dust collector
or scrubber for you while keeping a competitive price is
just that: we
are the manufacturer. Unlike the majority of our competitors,
we don't outsource our dust collection production. We do
our own engineering, sewing, metal fabrication, painting,
assembly, quality control, and laboratory R&D. This way we
control every step of the process, allowing us greater flexibility
to build the best dust collector or scrubber for your individual
needs. We have a strong commitment to shipping dates and
routinely guarantee ship dates when requested.
"Our obligation to the customer doesn't end when the equipment is shipped."
Sly's staff engineers can promptly assist you in troubleshooting
your dust collector or scrubber or with other field service
problems should they arise at your facility. This committment
to
total
customer
support
helps guarantee superior value for your investment.
"We're a private company, and intend to stay that way."
The corporate restructurings and short term goals of today's
business scene aren't for us. Sly is owned and operated
by descendants of the founding family. We are in the dust
collector business for the long run, and will maintain
the professionalism and
continuity required to contribute to the long term success
of your business.
