Conveyors in Ermelo

Ermelo is the main town of the eastern Highveld, set among coal mines, timber plantations and sheep and maize farms. Collieries around Ermelo supply thermal coal for export and for the Camden and Majuba power stations, and the town sits on the coal line to the Port of Richards Bay. Pine plantations feed sawmills and pulp operations in the area, adding belting for wood chip and log lines. Ermelo is one of the colder inland towns, with heavy frost and occasional snow in winter, which stiffens rubber covers and stresses splices. Supply and splicing support comes from eMalahleni, Secunda and Ermelo's own engineering workshops.
