In many companies they are literally “in the way”: obsolete or decommissioned control cabinets, often still fully equipped with valuable components such as PLC modules, frequency converters, power supplies, relays, control technology, terminals and wiring.
The common practice in many companies: laboriously dismantle components individually, inspect them, evaluate them – and dispose of the rest.
But it can be done more easily, quickly and sustainably.
The mistake in thinking: individual parts = more control, more yield?
Many companies assume that they will achieve higher returns or "get more value" by dismantling and selling components individually. In practice, however, this approach often leads to:
❌ unnecessary time expenditure
❌ Loss of functional connections
❌ Damage during disassembly
❌ unsorted, difficult to evaluate individual parts
And last but not least, many things still end up as scrap – even though they could have been sold as a whole unit.
The better solution: Sell control cabinets completely
We at MAAS Import Export focus specifically on the Takeover of entire control cabinets – including all installed components. This offers clear advantages for you as a supplier:
✔ No complex disassembly necessary
✔ Faster evaluation & collection
✔ Safe preservation of the installed technology in functional condition
✔ Higher remuneration than for individual exploitation
✔ Sustainable reuse instead of unnecessary disposal
We do the work – you save time and benefit economically.
What happens to the control cabinet after purchase?
After MAAS Import Export takes delivery of the control cabinet, it is professionally opened, inspected, and documented in our workshop. We ensure that:
🔹 Functional components are stored individually or forwarded
🔹 valuable components remain completely intact
🔹 if necessary, entire control cabinets can be put back into operation
This gives industrial materials a second life cycle – resource-saving and market-oriented.
We purchase these control cabinets particularly frequently:
Dismantling of automation and conveyor technology
Decommissioned plant controls
Conversions in mechanical engineering
Project and series returns from production
Unique pieces from research & development
Populated fields from maintenance
We are also interested in older models or supposedly “outdated” technology – just contact us.
Conclusion: The whole cabinet is often worth more than the sum of its parts
What many consider a legacy is a valuable resource for us: Control cabinets – complete, sorted, in original condition.
Instead of investing time and effort in the complex individual processing, you can rely on a holistic solution.
We take care of your control cabinets – quickly, fairly, sustainably.
