Catering to a diverse range of sectors including industrial, mobile, medical, pharmaceutical, defence, power generation, oil and gas, fishing, marine, mining, forestry, and agriculture, Pressure Hydraulics supply hydraulic valves, pumps, and filters to meet various industry needs.

Pressure Hydraulics have been utilising Herbst Software for over four years, prior to which they faced numerous challenges in communication and visibility across their various sites. Their previous system lacked the scalability and features required for their expanding business, with no stock control or sales order capabilities. Since implementing Herbst Software, Pressure Hydraulics have experienced exponential growth, expanding to four sites and tripling their staff from 14 to 42 within four years.

With a huge inventory of 22,000 stock items, Herbst Software has provided Pressure Hydraulics with comprehensive visibility and traceability in purchasing and stock management. They have found the Herbst system to be user-friendly and have praised the exceptional support provided by Herbst.

There is no way we could have gone from where we were four years ago to where we are now without the Herbst system.
