Conveyors in Gauteng

Gauteng is the country's densest industrial region, and most of its conveyor demand comes from the Witwatersrand. Old gold dumps on the Reef are being reprocessed, deep-level gold mines still run on the West Rand, and quarries around Pretoria and Krugersdorp supply crushed stone. The East Rand and Vaal Triangle add steelworks, foundries, cement and process plants, while OR Tambo, City Deep and the large distribution centres use light belting and sorters. The Highveld sits at roughly 1,700 metres, so winters are dry and dusty and summer storms bring heavy rain. The province has the deepest supply base in the country: belt suppliers, splicing crews, pulley shops and engineering workshops.

Quarries and sand mines: inspecting crusher and stockpile belts against sharp, abrasive aggregate and heavy impact
Food and beverage factories: inspecting hygienic belts and lines, with cleaning access and food safety rules in mind

Frequently asked questions

What will the job cost in Gauteng?

Can a crew come out for a breakdown in Gauteng?
