  • Dear NIG-FLY users

    NIG-FLY web site will stop accepting new orders for a while.

    As mentioned before, our building, where we keep all fly stocks, turned out that has insulation containing asbestos. According to this issue, we need to move all stocks and facilities to another building during removing asbestos.
    Since we are already fully occupied with the waiting shipments, NIG-FLY web site will stop accepting new orders for a while. This construction process will take more than one month and a half from early July. We will announce our status on NIG-FLY web site.

    We are very sorry for the inconvenience and would appreciate your understanding.

    Sincerely.

    Since construction of removing asbestos has been postponed, we are now able to ship stocks for a wile.
    NIG-FLY will accept orders temporarily hopefully during June.
    However, we will close the web again when construction schedule is settled.
    If we don't receive MTA very soon, shipment might not be carried out.
    Please make sure to send all full filled required forms as soon as possible. We will try performing as a stock center as much as possible.

    Sorry for the inconvenience attributed to this circumstance.
