earCheck introduced oil analysis to the
region more than 30 years ago; initially
with travelling technicians; and later
through technical support consultant, Leon Marshall,
who has serviced an established WearCheck client
base from his Port Elizabeth-based home office for
the past nine years.
Located in Sidwell, Port Elizabeth, the new office will serve
as a meeting venue for WearCheck customers, or as a
depot where WearCheck products, such as sampling kits,
can be purchased.
Leon is enthusiastic about the new office, “It is situated
in Set Point House – the building of our parent company,
The Set Point Group – which gives us access to a variety
of amenities such as meeting rooms and convenient
access to our products and services.
“The location in the industrial suburb of Sidwell is very
convenient for the majority of our customers for the
collection of sample kits. In addition, I will continue to
provide a delivery service of WearCheck products to
customers in the PE metro area.”
New offices for WearCheck in Eastern Cape
WearCheck’s oil and fuel analysis facility recently moved up a gear with the opening of a brand new office
to service the Eastern and Southern Cape.
He explains further, “For convenience, certain sample
kits are pre-labelled with the WearCheck laboratory
address, so once a customer has taken the sample, they
simply drop the sealed kit off at the nearest post office,”
he says, adding, “For faster turnaround time, there are
courier options.”
While the majority of Leon’s customers require industrial
or automotive oil analysis, he also covers fuel (petrol and
diesel), engine coolant and transformer oil analysis.
A mechanical engineer by profession, he provides
technical backup to customers in an area stretching
from Umzimkulu on the KZN border, all the way to
Mossel Bay in the southern Cape.
After graduating from UCT he spent over 20 years
administering fleets of construction equipment before
joining WearCheck. He has been located in the Eastern
Cape for 33 years and is familiar with many of the
technical players in the region.
WearCheck Port Elizabeth’s new offices are located at
34 Cadle Street, Sidwell,
Port Elizabeth.
