The delivery of perfect electronic components is a given for you as well as for us. A poor quality component can jeopardize the functionality and quality of an entire device. It is therefore of great importance to test, qualify and examine electronic components down to the last detail.

This is especially true for electronic components that are not obtained directly from manufacturers or franchise distributors. We obtain our electronic components exclusively from carefully verified sources. Nevertheless, before delivery, we are able to have the components thoroughly checked by leading test and analysis providers to ensure quality is guaranteed for our customers at all times.

As an expert in their field, our cooperation partner for quality assurance offers the following services:

Of course, the examinations can also take place on request according to your needs or company guidelines

What our customers say about the cooperation

The company SAND & SILICON is a new supplier in our company since the tense bottleneck situation on the market. As a global EMS service provider or assembler, we are particularly affected by the precarious market situation due to the large number of customers, since we do most of the procurement for our customers. By involving SAND & SILICON in our daily requests for hard-to-find components, we have been able to achieve a tremendous "relief" as this supplier was able to offer stock that was untraceable for us. The prices were much higher than usual according to the market, but this was acceptable for our customers and especially for us in the current allocation. So far, the quality has always been impeccable and the components were also always tested before delivery to us, which was a top priority for us! Conclusion: We can recommend the supplier without reservation.

Position: Purchasing
Industry: EMS service provider

The partnership with SAND & SILICON as an independent distributor that is both fast and flexible as well as fair priced, has supported us enormously in recent months and ensured that we could continue to produce competitively.

Gabriel S.

Position: Category Manager Electronics
Company: Security & Home Automation

We came across the company or the supplier on the recommendation of one of our partners. We were facing a line stoppage due to the shortages in the market and S&S helped us to get the urgently needed components in a timely manner. The delivery was on time as agreed and the quality was impeccable. The goods were also tested again before delivery, which we found very positive, as it once again confirmed that the goods could be used immediately. We can absolutely recommend the company.

You will receive an offer within the first 24 hours or feedback on the current status of your inquiry, should a deeper market research be necessary, such as for hard-to-find electronic components.
Yes, your request is of course non-binding and free of charge for you.

We work according to two principles in order to offer impeccable quality and new and unused original goods for our customers. These principles are as follows:

1. we purchase our products directly from the manufacturers or from official sources such as franchise distributors, so we can always ensure 100% traceability to the manufacturer. In these cases, we also have a manufacturer's warranty.

2. we purchase our electronic components from our global supplier network, which has been carefully checked by us. In this case, the products additionally always go first to one of our specialized testing partners before delivery. These specialized and independent testing houses test the products according to our high quality standards. Only if the test result is perfect, the products are delivered to our customers with the corresponding test report.

We offer you three special solutions to reduce the surplus of your electronic components: Direct purchase, commission business and brokerage.

Option 1 - Direct purchase
Option 1 - Direct purchase We are interested in the total purchase of your surplus electronic components. In this capitalization strategy, consolidate all surplus items. After our thorough inspection and evaluation of the offered electronic components, we purchase them at a fair price. This process allows you to quickly free up inventory space and have immediate liquidity.

Option 2 - Commission business
In the commission business, SAND & SILICON takes over the storage of your surplus electronic components and immediately provides for a relief of your stock. Directly after the sale of your electronic components, the achieved profit will be credited to your account. An individually agreed commission contract regulates the details of this arrangement.

Option 3 - Brokerage
If you want to sell your electronic components without removing them from your warehouse, we can act as your broker. SAND & SILICON offers this brokerage service where the components remain in storage with you and we find potential buyers for you.

The quality of our work and our suppliers is our highest priority. For this reason, SAND & SILICON is certified according to ISO 9001:2015 and carries out regular supplier audits.
