Websites for tool and industrial suppliers: your products on your own site within the hour, and the enquiry on your desk first
You already keep your products up to date for the global industrial catalogues. The same feed can run a site you own, fast enough to pass Google's real-visitor speed test, where a maintenance buyer finds the product, sends the enquiry to you, and never sees a competitor's stock beside yours.
What it is like now
- Buyers search part numbers and your site has categories.
- Thousands of lines, dozens of brands, and a website that shows forty.
- The big catalogues take the order because they show stock and a price.
What we build for industrial suppliers
- Catalogue search by part number, brand and specification
- Live stock and account pricing, quote-to-order in one flow
- Supplier feeds ingested automatically, so new lines appear without retyping
- Purchase-order upload for larger accounts
What it looks like in practice
Maintenance buyers search part numbers and the supplier's site has categories. We build catalogue search by part number, brand and specification, live stock and account pricing with quote-to-order in one flow, supplier feeds ingested automatically so new lines appear without retyping, and purchase-order upload for the larger accounts.
What a website costs for tool and industrial suppliers
Most industrial suppliers need the Platform tier, from €20,000, delivered in 10 to 14 weeks, paid 40 / 40 / 20, or 12 monthly payments. That includes your products fed from your own system, a page per product, the filters your buyers use, enquiry capture with alerts, sector pages, structured data, built to score 100 on Google's speed test at launch, and your hosting, domain and code in your name.
After launch, most take the Managed care plan at €195 a month: hosting, SSL, daily backups, software updates, uptime and security monitoring, 2 hours a month shared between content edits and development (no rollover), a monthly report in plain English and a one working day response, month to month with 30 days' notice. If the site you have now only needs its faults fixed rather than replacing, single fixes start at €175 and the free audit names them.
Typical ticket for a product in your trade is €50 to €50,000 an order; one enquiry that comes to you instead of to the global industrial catalogues covers a lot of website. The full menu, with the five-year comparison, is on the pricing page.
Questions industrial suppliers ask
- Our customers search by part number.
- Then the search is built for it: exact and partial part-number match first, brand and description second.
- Can we take purchase orders?
- Yes. PO upload per account with approval routing, and the PO number carried through to the invoice.
- Supplier price lists change monthly.
- Ingested on a schedule from the supplier feeds you already receive, with your margin rules applied automatically.
Faults we see most on industrial suppliers sites
Before anyone talks about a rebuild, the audit usually finds a few of these. Each has its own page with the fix and the fixed price, and none of them needs a new website.
- Slow to start loading · A half day to a day.
- Not built for phones · One to three days depending on the size of the site, or part of a rebuild.
- Footer still shows an old year · An hour, plus whatever the content review turns up.
- Missing page title · Two hours for a typical site.
- Missing meta description · Two hours for a typical site.
Check your own site first
Free, on screen in seconds. The faults a maintenance buyer actually hits on your homepage, and what each one costs you.
Free, no call. The first findings come up in a few seconds and the full result in about half a minute. We load your site in a real mobile browser the way Google measures it, read your inner pages, your DNS, certificate, email records and sitemap, follow your stock list to the pages for the things you actually sell, and show you the three worst things on screen.
Five questions to ask anyone quoting you, and our answers
- Where is the work actually done?
- Here, by the person you are talking to. Nothing is passed to a white-label shop in another time zone without telling you, because nothing is passed anywhere.
- Who can see my enquiry data, and under what agreement?
- You, and us while we build or maintain it, under a written data-processing agreement. Your customers' details never leave infrastructure in your name.
- What happens on day 31?
- The same as day 1. Fixed-price builds carry a 90-day warranty on defects; care plans run month to month; nothing expires when the invoice clears.
- Who owns the code, the hosting and the domain?
- You do, from the first commit. Your repository, your hosting account, your registrar. Written into the quote. (The one exception is the monthly dealer plan, where the code passes to you when the 12-month minimum is complete.)
- What does Google's own speed test say about it?
- We build to score 100 on Google's mobile test and report the launch-day figure in writing; the final instalment is due when the written acceptance criteria are met, not on a score. ukcarimports.ie scored 88 on 10 October 2026 with real visitors passing all five Core Web Vitals. Run it yourself, on any page of the proof site.
