WARNING

Caution buying Second Hand QUVs online

We are seeing more and more companies purchasing second hand QUV from overseas via online websites. Please take caution if you decide to go down this path.

In the past year we have seen companies receiving shipment of incomplete units and having to spend the cost of a brand new QUV to bring the unit up to Australian standards.

If you are interested in a second hand unit please register your interest with NHPL, we are contacted frequently with customers who have recently upgraded their old QUVs and are wanting to sell their old QUVs.

Weathering and Durability Testing
Will Your Products Last Outdoors?

Knowing the light stability and weatherability of your products is too important to chance. Don’t guess when you can test.

Sunlight, heat and moisture can cause serious product deterioration - such as colour change, cracking, peeling, oxidation or loss of strength. Damage from weathering or corrosion occurs both outdoors and indoors, and its severity can vary greatly in different climates. Even materials that are resistant to sunlight alone or to moisture alone often fail when exposed to sunlight and moisture in combination.
