Our mission statement
Our mission statement describes who Surplex is as an organisation and where we want to go. It shows the values that are important to us at Surplex and offers orientation when it comes to making decisions.
The Surplex mission statement was developed in cooperation with many colleagues, with the help of the thoughts and feedback of different employees with different positions and from different departments. It reflects Surplex and our development direction as accurately as possible and gives a good impression of who we are.
REINVENTING SECOND-HAND MACHINE TRADE
TRADING AND ACTING BASED ON TRUST
WE ENJOY DIVERSITY
REINVENTING SECOND-HAND MACHINE TRADE
We are an e-commerce company, specialising in the market for used woodworking and metalworking machinery. We create a bridge between traditional business models and online business by combining the best of both. This has had a lasting effect on the machine trade in general.
Our company history is reflected in the development of an idea which is still essential for us today. We promote digital trading with second-hand machines without ever losing sight of the human aspect. Personal contact with our sellers and buyers is very important to us.
The digital nature of our business is not merely a concession to the general trend but our focal idea. Being digital is part of our philosophy - and always has been. Since 1999. For this very reason we perfectly understand the benefits and advantages of digital trading.

We have been in business for over 20 years and our actions are based on mutual trust. We treat ourselves and our customers as equals, because we know that there is always more than one way to success.
WE ENJOY DIVERSITY
Just like our customers from over 150 countries worldwide, we are all different. We speak more than 20 languages and come from different nationalities. Therefore, our team is based on diversity in every respect. This is what makes us strong, because everyone contributes their individual personality, different skills and abilities.
