If you’re in the market for a roll-forming machine, it’s not just about specs - it’s about making the smartest investment for your future builds.

Before you commit to a machine, ask yourself: 

  • Is the machine truly accurate to the millimetre? 

  • Does it integrate with your preferred design software? 

  • Are there ongoing fees that could eat into your running costs? 

  • Is the support solid and ongoing? 

  • Was the machine built with transparency and full quality control and accountability? 

 

At Howick, we believe the right questions lead to the right decision. From our precision-engineered, New Zealand-made machines to our open language software systems and no hidden fees policy, we’ve built our reputation on empowering builders and manufacturers to succeed - without compromise. 

We’ve put together a mini FAQ guide covering all the must ask questions to help you avoid the common pitfalls and choose a roll-forming solution that will serve you for years to come.
