Price Update – Horseshoe Packers & Panel Shims (Effective 1 May)

We want to provide advance notice of an upcoming price adjustment across our Horseshoe Packers and Panel Shim range.

Our Australian supplier has recently implemented and immediately passed on a price increase affecting our products, driven by significant rises in raw material costs and ongoing freight pressures. These impacts are linked to broader geopolitical conditions affecting resin supply and global logistics.

We have taken steps to absorb a portion of these increases to reduce the impact on our customers. However, a partial adjustment is necessary to ensure we can continue to supply these products consistently and maintain current service levels.

What this means for you

Orders placed before 1 May will be invoiced at current pricing. If these products are part of your regular stock requirements, we recommend reviewing your upcoming need for packers and shims and placing orders during April as required.

We understand that price increases—particularly those driven by factors outside normal market movement—can be challenging. Our focus remains on maintaining supply continuity and supporting your business with reliable product availability.

If you have any questions or need assistance planning your next order, please contact our team.
