Tier 1 Air Compressor Prices (Highest Price)
Foreign Enterprises: These compressors are typically produced by foreign companies, where production and management costs are high, including full employee benefits and insurance. The strict quality control and after-sales service also contribute to the higher price.
Authorized Distributors: Prices from distributors of the same brand usually differ by no more than 5%-8%. These products are suitable for businesses with stringent quality and after-sales service requirements.
Tier 2 Air Compressor Prices (Second-Highest)
Domestic Professional Manufacturers: Companies in this tier, such as SAYI, are domestic enterprises with a strong focus on product quality, brand reputation, and long-term development. They manufacture according to strict production standards and have established local sales and service offices to provide reliable after-sales support. These companies target mid- to high-end clients.
Due to relatively lower management costs compared to foreign companies, these products are priced 15%-20% lower than tier 1 compressors. Brands like SAYI are known for offering excellent value and reliable after-sales service, making them the ideal choice for mid- to high-end users.
Distributors' Sales: Buyers can sometimes negotiate additional price reductions if they contribute to the brand’s promotional efforts.
Tier 3 Air Compressor Prices (Third-Highest)
Diversified Manufacturers: These companies usually produce a variety of compressors, and screw compressors are not their main focus. As a result, they may lack strong brand awareness and quality control for this particular product.
Limited After-Sales Service: They often do not have dedicated after-sales service centers. Troubleshooting is usually handled via phone support or by sending a technician from the headquarters, which can delay service.
Lower Prices: Due to lower overall costs, these compressors are typically priced 30%-35% lower than tier 1 products and 5%-10% lower than tier 2 products. However, their after-sales service and quality are less reliable, making them unsuitable for businesses with higher air quality demands.
Tier 4 Air Compressor Prices (Lowest Price)
OEM or Uncertified Products: These compressors are often produced by manufacturers without proper certifications or by new companies trying to enter the market quickly. In some cases, even the basic instruction manuals are poorly written or incomplete.
Low-Cost Competition: These manufacturers reduce costs by using lower-quality components, which allows them to offer highly competitive prices.
No Quality or Service Guarantees: Due to the lack of long-term market awareness and quality control, these products have a high failure rate and incur high maintenance costs. Prices are typically 40%-45% lower than tier 1 products and 15%-20% lower than tier 2 products.
