Industrial Automation Surplus Brokerage

 

 

We help factories, maintenance teams, and industrial operators turn unused automation components into immediate cash.

 

Highgate Burton acts as an independent broker between European sellers and established global buyers of industrial automation equipment. We focus on high-value, standardised components such as PLCs, control modules, drives, and sealed spare units.

 

 

 

What We Do

 

 

• Identify resellable surplus automation components

• Verify part numbers, condition, and authenticity

• Secure firm buy offers from established US and global buyers

• Coordinate transaction terms and documentation

• Arrange streamlined resale to approved purchasing partners

 

 

You deal with one point of contact. We handle the rest.

 

 

 

What We Specialise In

 

 

We prioritise:

 

• Factory-sealed or unused PLCs

• Obsolete or discontinued control modules

• High-demand automation components with clear secondary-market pricing

• Surplus maintenance stock from plant upgrades or closures

 

 

We do not operate as a scrap buyer. We focus only on components with clear resale value in the global secondary market.

 

 

 

How We Operate

 

 

1. You provide a part number or surplus list.

2. We confirm market demand and buyer pricing.

3. We agree commercial terms.

4. We coordinate the onward transaction.

 

 

Simple. Direct. Commercially aligned.

 

 

 

Who This Is For

 

 

• Manufacturing plants with excess spares

• Maintenance managers holding obsolete inventory

• Industrial firms upgrading control systems

• Businesses closing lines or restructuring operations

 

 

If you have automation stock that is no longer mission-critical, we determine whether it has recoverable value.
