Conveyors in Polokwane

Polokwane is the commercial and logistics centre for Limpopo and the main supply base for the platinum, chrome and coal operations spread across the province. Mines around Mokopane, Burgersfort and Lephalale buy belting, idlers and pulleys through workshops and distributors based in the city's industrial areas, and breakdown crews often travel several hours to site. Locally, grain, citrus, tomato and cattle producers around Polokwane and Tzaneen run silos, packhouses and abattoirs that use lighter belting. Summers are hot with heavy afternoon storms, winters are dry and dusty, and long distances to the Gauteng factories make local stockholding and splicing capacity important.
