From the parts list to the construction site

A parts list is a list of problems: which standard, which edition, which material, which certificate, which date – and who carries all of it to the site, in the right order, with the right papers? The knowledge base answers the technical questions. This section answers the other half: how we turn your list into a delivery, what we need for it and where our services begin and end. No sales talk – written to the same standard as the knowledge pages.

Choose the solution – or send your enquiry right away

Three entry points, one address

Every page of the knowledge base carries the same three entry points: Send enquiry for one item or one question, Send parts list for several items (attached as a file), Request express when it is urgent. All three create an e-mail to us; there is no form and no mandatory fields. Send what you have – designation, standard, quantity, date. We clarify the rest with you.

The process – and what happens at each stage

Every project runs through the same stages; the difference lies in how many of them you leave to us.

  • Parts list. You send what you have: parts list, old designations. We identify each item – standard, type, material, size – and ask what is missing. The component identifier and the standards guide help in advance.
  • Technical clarification. Which edition applies, is EN compatible with ASME, which certificate does the specification demand: that is in the knowledge base – mixing standards worlds, inspection documents, flanges, pipes.
  • Procurement. From stock what is stocked; procured what is missing – special parts to drawing included. One contact for all items. Project supply, express and emergency.
  • Quality and papers. Inspection certificates 3.1, supplier’s declarations, certificates of origin – assigned per item. Certificates and documentation.
  • Processing. Sawing and fixed lengths, threads, roll grooves, bending, galvanising, pickling, blasting, coating, parts to drawing. Processing.
  • Project warehouse and call-off. We store, you call off – by construction phase or maintenance schedule. C-parts and consignment stock.
  • Picking, packaging, marking. By construction phase and your item number; export packaging as required for road, sea or air freight. Packaging and marking.
  • Delivery. Own fleet with crane unloading for the site, pipe haulage, parcel and pallet, export. What can be done, and how fast, we clarify for each order.

Four ways of working with us

Project supply: the complete material for a plant construction or an overhaul from one source, with fixed prices by agreement, scheduling, interim storage and documentation. Daily demand: the full-range stockist for maintenance and installation – order what is missing today. C-parts management: call-off orders and consignment stock for recurring parts, across sites. Express: when the plant is down and the part is missing. All four start the same way: you write to us what you need.

What we do not promise: times of day, percentages and delivery commitments that sales and shipping have not confirmed in the individual case. What is possible, we tell you when you enquire – and then keep it.

Who it is for

Project supply relieves more than purchasing. What falls away for your role, what we do and what we need for it:

Purchasing · Engineering and planning · Warehouse and goods receipt · Quality assurance · Documentation · Project management on site · Installation · Accounting and supplier management · Site and site management · Maintenance after the project · Export and customs · Maintenance management for shutdown and overhaul

And for the enquiry itself: what purchasing and project management think of.

References: where material from Zickwolff is installed

Two structures you can visit: the Chiapas water ride at Phantasialand in Brühl was built with pipes from Zickwolff – we delivered pipes and connecting material fully prefabricated for the construction. In the MEWA ARENA in Mainz (Coface Arena during construction, later Opel Arena), built as a new stadium from 2009 and in use since 2011, pipes from Zickwolff are installed.

And once without an order: for a new forest-fire fighting module of @fire – Internationaler Katastrophenschutz Deutschland e. V. we donated the ball valves and fittings. The association helps with volunteers worldwide after earthquakes and in forest fires.

Further projects, anonymised and with figures: case studies.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I get flanges, pipes and fittings complete and at short notice for a project?

Choose the solution that fits your situation at the top – express, project supply, processing, certificates – or go straight to one of the three entry points enquiry, parts list and express: stock items and procured items arrive in one delivery, processed on request and with certificates; the process from parts list to site is described below.

Who is this section for?

For purchasing, project management, maintenance and installation – everyone who has to turn a technical question into an order. Those interested in the subject stay in the knowledge base; those who want delivery will find their way here.

Do I have to be a customer to enquire?

No. For business customers it is worth setting up the customer account in advance, because it saves time in an emergency – the enquiry itself is open to everyone.

Does Zickwolff deliver abroad?

Yes, nationally and internationally, by container or express; packaging and papers depend on the destination country. Details per project.
