Smart planning – smooth sailing
In a work environment full of stress and performance pressure, with high demands for efficiency, we should take advantage of every opportunity to be prepared. Fortunately, there are easily accessible solutions that can be of great help in case of an emergency. With smart planning and our specialised expertise, you have the opportunity to obtain customised onboard spare kits tailored to your installation.
Smart planning - smooth sailing, isn't that the desired situation for most of us? But what does that have to do with sanitation systems and toilet facilities? Actually, quite a lot.
We had the pleasure of chatting with Audun Giske Eiksund, our Business Director at JETS Aftermarket, about the critical role of onboard spare part kits.
"It's easy to take sanitation systems and toilet facilities for granted – and that's good because it means they're working as they should most of the time. BUT, if something goes wrong and you can't use the toilets or the water doesn't drain, action needs to be taken immediately." Audun says.
"Beyond comfort and hygiene, it's also about safety. These are essential functions on a boat, and they simply must work properly. For those who work at sea and live on the boat for much of the year, it's like a second home. Therefore, it's crucial to have good maintenance and always have the right parts available for both routine service and emergencies. Having the right parts at the right time is not just a luxury but a necessity." he continues.
Smart planning for peace of mind
Having an onboard spare parts kit is all about foresight. It's about anticipating needs and being prepared for any eventuality. "It's like having an umbrella on a cloudy day. You might not need it right away, but if it starts to rain, you'll be glad you have it."
At JETS, we provide customised spare part kits tailored to your specific installation. This ensures that you have the necessary parts ready when you need them most. "Our kits are like a safety net. They provide peace of mind, knowing that you're prepared for whatever comes your way." Audun adds.
Why original spare parts matter
Using original spare parts is important for several reasons. Firstly, they guarantee compatibility and optimal performance. "It's like having one out-of-tune instrument in an orchestra, it kind of ruins the experience." Audun laughs. "Generic parts might fit temporarily, but they won’t give you the reliability and longevity of original parts."
Another significant advantage of using original parts is the assurance of quality and provenance. You know exactly where they come from and how they are made. Original Jets® parts undergo rigorous testing and are specifically designed for their intended use, ensuring they meet the highest standards of performance and durability. Crafted by designers at JETS, who understand the entire system from A to Z, every component is perfectly suited to its purpose, guaranteeing reliability and excellence.
Sustainable supply chain
Furthermore, original spare parts are produced within a transparent and sustainable supply chain. In the maritime industry, where the impact on the environment is a growing concern, choosing sustainably produced parts is a responsible decision. These parts are manufactured with eco-friendly practices, minimising their environmental footprint and contributing to the overall sustainability of maritime operations
By choosing original Jets® spare parts, you not only ensure the safety and efficiency of your vessel but also contribute to a more sustainable maritime industry.
Ensure efficiency, hygiene and comfort
In the environment of maritime operations, having the right spare parts at the right time is essential. With our onboard spare parts kit, you can ensure the efficiency, hygiene, and comfort of your vessel, passengers and crew - making every journey a smooth sail. So, the next time you set sail, remember Audun’s wise words: “Be prepared, stay original, and keep it stress-free!”
