Conveyors in Western Cape

The Western Cape has no large coal or ore mines, yet it relies on belting at its ports, packhouses and plants. The Port of Cape Town handles containers and fruit, the Port of Saldanha loads iron ore and other bulk cargo arriving by rail from the Northern Cape, and the Atlantis and Bellville industrial areas support food, packaging and manufacturing. Boland and Hex River packhouses, wine and juice plants, and Garden Route timber and sawmills use lighter belts. Winters are wet and windy, summers are dry and hot, and salt air shortens the life of exposed steel idlers, frames and pulleys near the coast.
