We’d like to share an important pricing update from EPS Services & Tooling Ltd.

From 1 April 2026, there will be a small adjustment to pricing across selected products and services. This reflects continued increases in the cost of key materials and operations, including steel, labour, stellite, and carbide.

What’s changing:
• Servicing items will increase by 6%
• New bandsaws and stellite re-tipping will increase by 7%

Orders placed on or before 31 March 2026 will still be supplied at current prices, giving customers the opportunity to review any upcoming servicing needs or planned orders ahead of the change.
