A machine specification that is right for a Mpumalanga coal strip is wrong for a Western Cape road contract, and both are wrong for a Cape Flats landfill. We start with the material, the cycle and the shift pattern, then choose the iron.
Opencast mining
Coal, chrome, manganese, PGMs and iron ore. Production is relentless, availability targets are contractual, and a machine standing still is measured in tonnes not hours.
Achieved across our contracted mining fleet in 2025.
Resident technicians on qualifying MARC contracts.
Roads & infrastructure
SANRAL and provincial contracts, district road rehabilitation, township infrastructure and new bulk services. Tolerance is tested, penalties are real, and the programme rarely has slack in it.
Bulk earthworks
Platform cuts, dams, attenuation ponds, industrial parks and logistics hubs. The fleet has to be balanced: one oversized machine waiting on three undersized ones is the most common way to lose money here.
High-abrasion applications where GET and undercarriage spend decides profitability. We supply rock-spec buckets, heavy guarding and abrasion-grade wear parts, and we build a measured wear programme from day one so the cost is forecast, not discovered.
Formation works, ballast handling, siding construction and terminal material handling. Rail projects run to possession windows. The machine has to work in the window it is given, which makes reliability and rapid response non-negotiable.
Landfill is one of the harshest environments a machine can work in: wire, heat, corrosive leachate and constant debris. Landfill-spec builds are a different machine, not a standard one with a sticker.
Silage, feedlots, bulk grain handling, farm dams, contour work and forestry roads. Seasonal peaks mean the machine has to be versatile. One loader with three attachments beats three specialised machines standing idle.
Machines, parts and technicians regularly cross into Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Mozambique. Cross-border logistics, clearing and documentation are handled by our logistics partner, and we plan spares provisioning up front because a border post is not the place to discover a lead time.
Material, volumes, distances, gradients, shift pattern. That is all we need to put a properly specified fleet proposal in front of you.
