A buying office for industry
Rakun Black sources equipment, spare parts and maintenance supplies for industrial operators and contractors, and takes responsibility for them until they arrive.
Why we exist
Industrial buying is mostly small things that matter a great deal. A seal that stops a pump. A relay that holds up a start-up. We exist to find those things, prove they are right, and get them where they are needed.
A maintenance planner knows what failed. A buyer knows the budget. Between them sits the work of working out what the part actually is, who still makes it, which of five quotations is for the genuine article, and how to get it across two borders by Thursday.
That work is what we do. It is not glamorous, and it is where most delays and most wrong deliveries begin.
We are not a marketplace or a catalogue. We do not ask you to search. You send an enquiry in whatever form you have it, and a person who understands industrial equipment takes it from there.
We work across 21 sectors and 16 product categories, because the same bearing, valve or transmitter turns up in a refinery, a paper mill and a dairy.
How we work
Six things you can hold us to
- 01 / 06
One order instead of forty
A shutdown list touches dozens of manufacturers. We turn it into one purchase order, one shipment and one invoice.
- 02 / 06
Paperwork before dispatch
Certificates, test reports and packing lists are checked and sent to you before the goods move, not after they arrive.
- 03 / 06
Straight answers on lead time
If a part takes fourteen weeks, we say fourteen weeks. Then we go looking for a faster route and tell you what it costs.
- 04 / 06
Genuine means genuine
Every line is marked genuine, OEM-equivalent or aftermarket. Nothing is substituted without you agreeing to it first.
- 05 / 06
A person, not a portal
You deal with one contact who learns your plant, your part numbers and how your receiving department likes things done.
- 06 / 06
Any quantity
A single seal kit or a container of pipe goes through the same process and gets the same attention.

The simplest way to judge a supplier is to send a real list and see what comes back. There is no cost and no obligation.
