At Hilditch Group, we use a comprehensive and thorough approach to maximise the value of your used medical equipment. With over 30 years of experience navigating and shaping the used medical equipment market, our specialist team leverage the expertise of our in-house medical engineers, our variety of routes to sale, and our international network of buyers to ensure the best price possible is achieved.
We have an in-house team of highly qualified, experienced medical engineers who specialise in testing, repairing, and upgrading medical equipment across various healthcare sectors. Having worked on thousands of items, our engineers have a wealth of experience and astute attention to detail, ensuring each machine is tested thoroughly. Our engineers assess the quality and functionality of each piece of second-hand equipment to ensure it complies with relevant industry standards and regulations. Following the assessment, our engineers provide a comprehensive condition report detailing quality and functionality that can be provided to potential buyers.
Our team of medical engineers can also disconnect and deinstall unwanted, second-hand medical equipment for resale. This service provides potential buyers with assurance that the equipment they are buying has been handled with the utmost specialist care at every stage of the resale process, maximising the value of the equipment.
We understand the importance of regulation when selling used medical equipment, especially when that equipment stores patient identifiable data. We appreciate the high burden of responsibility that comes with managing sensitive information and our medical engineering team provide the gold standard in data protection and data erasure. We have a fully auditable process to mitigate liability and minimise risks to ensure that your data protection duties and responsibilities are discharged properly. We are proud to be ISO 13485 Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certified.
Another way we maximise the value of used medical equipment is through our various sales routes. Although we are known for our live auctions, Hilditch Group is more than just an auction marketplace and we offer the following additional routes to sell used medical equipment:
• Live webcast auctions – quickly and easily sell a large volume of items and benefit from competitive bidding to achieve the highest possible price.
• Timed online auctions – promote items to buyers through detailed cataloguing. These sales can attract considered bids from buyers with the time to think.
• Specialised timed online auctions – reach our list of specialist buyers to attract bids on large items such as CT/MRI scanners and screening vehicles.
• Category specific sales e.g. vet, ambulance, imaging – achieve the best price by reaching a targeted audience with an interest in your used medical equipment.
• Direct sales and private treaties – benefit from our personalised service and specialised buyer pool. Maximise the value of very high value items through sealed best and final offers.
• Retail and eCommerce – a fast, flexible marketplace with a wide reach, where we can guarantee the highest prices for the latest equipment in the best condition.
Our extensive, global network of buyers allows us to connect with a broad market. As European leaders in the resale of used medical equipment, Hilditch Group support thousands of buyers and sellers worldwide, across a variety of sectors. This diverse network allows us access to markets and industries you may not have considered, unlocking new opportunities.
Our team of specialists are here to help you maximise the value of your unwanted, second-hand medical equipment and simplify the resale process with a focus on quality and sustainability from end to end.
