Conveyors in Kroonstad

Kroonstad lies on the N1 and the Vals River in the heart of the Free State maize belt, and grain is the main business: silos, mills and feed plants receive and load maize, wheat and sunflower seed in huge quantities after harvest. Bucket elevators and belt conveyors are the key handling equipment, with peaks from April to July when breakdowns are very costly. Dust control and fire risk are serious concerns in grain handling. The town also has meat processing, dairy and light industry, and quarries nearby supply stone. Local workshops, belting stockists and mechanical contractors serve the district, and Gauteng and Bloemfontein suppliers deliver larger orders along the N1.
