Conveyors in Gqeberha

Gqeberha is a windswept port city that anchors the Eastern Cape's manufacturing base. The Port of Ngqura and the Coega industrial zone nearby handle containers, manganese ore and other bulk cargo, and the city's older harbour supports citrus, wool and general cargo. Vehicle assembly, automotive components, tyre and rubber, and food processing plants fill the industrial areas of Struandale, Perseverance and Markman. Salt-laden wind, humidity and abrasive manganese dust shorten the life of steelwork, rollers and belt covers. The city has an established engineering sector, with belting suppliers, roller specialists, splicers and fabricators that also serve the Karoo, Kariega and East London.
