Just Pumps: A Website Case Study
Just Pumps describes itself as a complete pumping solutions company, supplying pump equipment and services to production applications across more than 30 market segments, with over 30 years of experience solving pump problems. The business runs two branches, one in Northriding, Johannesburg, and one in Brackenfell, Cape Town, giving it real reach across two of South Africa’s main industrial hubs.
About Just Pumps
The product range includes Becker and Busch vacuum pumps, Gücüm Pompa pumps, and an in-house Just Pumps branded line, alongside rental units for shorter term needs. The business explicitly names pharmaceutical, vacuum forming, and printing factories as customer types, offers pump rebuilding to original manufacturer specifications, and backs its equipment with 24 hour standby technical support.
Industrial equipment supply like this depends heavily on a buyer being able to quickly confirm that a supplier stocks or services the specific pump type and brand their production line actually runs on.
What the website needed to do
With two branches, multiple pump brands, sales, rentals, repairs, and rebuilds all under one roof, the site needed to make it fast for a production or maintenance manager to find the specific thing they need, whether that is a Busch vacuum pump in stock, a rebuild service for existing equipment, or a short term rental to cover downtime.
The 24 hour standby support and the two branch locations both needed real visibility, since industrial buyers often need reassurance that support is genuinely available if a pump fails mid production, not just during standard business hours.
Why this matters for industrial equipment suppliers generally
For any business supplying, servicing, or renting industrial equipment, the website’s core job is helping a technical buyer confirm compatibility fast: does this supplier carry my pump type, my brand, in my area, with support I can actually rely on if something breaks. Burying that information in generic “we supply pumps” language slows down exactly the buyer most likely to convert.
Naming real customer industries (pharmaceutical, vacuum forming, printing, in this case) also does real work here, since it lets a prospective buyer in a similar industry quickly recognise relevant experience rather than wondering if the supplier actually understands their specific application.
Long-standing experience, stated as a real number of years rather than a vague “established” claim, also carries genuine weight in industrial equipment supply, where a buyer is often trusting a supplier to keep production running reliably, and a long, specific track record is one of the clearest signals of dependability available.
Rebuild and repair services, rebuilding equipment to original manufacturer specifications specifically, are also worth featuring with real prominence, since a buyer facing an unexpected equipment failure often needs to know quickly whether repair is a realistic, faster option than a full replacement purchase.
The result
Just Pumps’s site is live now at justpumps.co.za, built to make brand availability, rental options, rebuild services, and two branch locations easy to find for production and maintenance buyers under time pressure. It is one of the businesses featured on our portfolio.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a website for an industrial equipment supplier cost?
It depends on how many brands, services, and locations need presenting. Our Business Website package is the usual starting point, and we confirm exact pricing once we understand your business.
Why does naming specific customer industries help an industrial supplier’s website?
Because it lets a prospective buyer in a similar industry quickly recognise relevant experience. A pharmaceutical company evaluating a pump supplier wants to see that the supplier already understands pharmaceutical applications, not just that they sell pumps generally.
How should a multi-branch business present its locations online?
Clearly and prominently, since buyers often want to know they can get support or stock nearby, or from a branch that understands their local market, rather than digging through a contact page to find out where the business actually operates.
Does 24 hour support need to be visible on the homepage?
If it is a genuine differentiator, yes. Industrial buyers often need reassurance that support is available outside standard hours if equipment fails during production, and burying that reassurance deep in the site undersells a real competitive advantage.
Should rentals be presented alongside sales and repairs?
Yes, as a clearly separate option. A buyer facing unexpected downtime is often looking specifically for a rental to bridge the gap, and conflating that with the sales and repair offering makes it harder for them to find the fastest solution to their immediate problem.
How long does a website project for a multi-branch industrial supplier take?
Most projects like this run four to six weeks from a signed off brief to launch, with the main variable being how many product brands and service lines need their own clear space, and how much branch-specific detail needs to be gathered and confirmed.
