French manufacturers can source inspected used CNC and metalworking machinery directly through Asset-Trade. We manage full export processing, freight transport from Germany to France, and CE documentation compliance.
Asset-Trade buys and liquidates surplus industrial machinery from French manufacturing plants, providing international marketing, expert valuation, and professional dismantling.
When sourcing used machinery from France to another EU country, no customs tariffs apply under intra-EU trade laws, requiring only a valid VAT identification number for reverse-charge tax treatment. For non-EU exports, Asset-Trade manages French EX-1 export customs declarations, customs exit confirmations (ECS), and EUR.1 preferential origin documentation. Our logistics team handles all administrative clearance with French customs authorities for smooth international transport.
Asset-Trade deploys experienced industrial rigging teams throughout France (Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Lille). We handle professional mechanical dismantling, electrical marking, crane hoisting, and loading onto heavy-haul transport vehicles. We secure all necessary French road transport permits (Transports Exceptionnels Category 1-3) and coordinate convoy escorts for oversized metalworking and plastics machinery.
Yes, Asset-Trade coordinates on-site physical and power-on inspections across France prior to purchase. Buyers can inspect spindle runout, geometric accuracy, control parameters, and test production runs on CNC lathes, milling machines, and hydraulic presses. Where physical travel is limited, we provide high-definition live video demonstrations and independent engineering appraisal reports.
