Conveyors in Upington

Upington is the main town on the lower Orange River, set in an irrigated strip of vineyards, date palms, raisin farms and lucerne fields in otherwise desert country. Packhouses, dried-fruit plants, wineries and cold stores use light and medium-duty belting, food-grade belts and sorting conveyors, usually during intense harvest peaks in summer. The area is among the hottest in the country, and fine dust plus fruit sugar make cleaning and hygiene important. Quarries and sand pits supply local construction, and large solar plants in the region add engineering work. Upington has a modest base of workshops, while heavy belting and spares are delivered from Cape Town, Kimberley or Gauteng.
