A clearer path from equipment research to a quote or financing inquiry.
Saltglass recovered and modernized an inherited commercial-equipment site while preserving the product, price, form, and URL requirements the business already depended on.
Audience
Commercial equipment buyers
Customer action
Compare, request a quote, or apply for financing
Systems involved
Product catalog, server-side forms, client systems
A catalog is useful only when a buyer can tell which system fits and what to do next.
Kraken Industries sells commercial bin-cleaning systems with different configurations, prices, and operating considerations. A serious buyer needs more than a gallery. They need to compare equipment, understand the relevant model, and move into a quote or financing path with the right product context intact.
The project also began with inherited source, established URLs, server-side form behavior, and deployment requirements. The work had to improve the buying experience without casually breaking the parts the business already depended on.
Working constraint: modernization had to preserve product information, price requirements, existing routes, form handling, and supported client-system handoffs.
What had to stay intact
The existing business rules could not disappear during redesign.
The inherited site carried more than page content. Product routes, server-side forms, price information, quote requirements, and financing paths were connected to the sales process. Saltglass treated those as operational dependencies, not disposable legacy details.
What Saltglass handled
Recovery, product structure, and inquiry routing.
Recovered and reviewed the inherited source and deployment
Organized nine equipment systems for comparison
Created clearer product-level decision paths
Preserved quote and financing requirements
Kept server-side routing and client-system handoffs
Documented launch, rollback, and ongoing ownership
Customer journey
Research can lead to the right inquiry without a generic dead end.
Equipment comparison→Product page→Quote request→Server-side route→Client systemFinancing application branches from the product path.
Why this matters to the business
The sales conversation starts with more of the buyer's context already attached.
The public site helps a buyer narrow the catalog and choose the right next step. The business receives a product-specific inquiry instead of a generic message that requires staff to restart the discovery process.
Comparable products
Nine systems are presented as a range a commercial buyer can research rather than a loose collection of pages.
Two serious next steps
Quote and financing paths are available where they belong in the equipment journey.
Controlled ownership
Source, deployment, supported routes, and handoffs are documented so the business is not dependent on guesswork.
What the system supports
Customers and staff have a defined next action.
Compare the equipment range
Review a specific system
Submit a structured quote request
Start a financing application
Route the inquiry through the supported client workflow
The equipment-led site connects product research to quote and financing paths.
