Conveyors in Pinetown

Pinetown is one of the main industrial centres in the eThekwini metro, about 20 kilometres inland from the port, with factories and warehouses stretched across Westmead, New Germany and Mahogany Ridge. Manufacturers of food, packaging, textiles, plastics, vehicle components and building products use belt and roller conveyors in production and dispatch, while trucking and warehousing businesses serve the N3 corridor. The inland position is slightly less corrosive than the coast but humidity is still high, and summer storms are heavy. The area has dense engineering support, with belting suppliers, roller manufacturers, fabricators and splicing crews that also service the port, the south Durban basin and the Midlands.
