As value add to our LOYAL CUSTOMERS we assist in any form of testing or bench-marking that will assist them to become more competitive.
Utilities
We operate our own electrical substation, a 440 kVA generator set to minimise manufacturing disruptions, thermic fluid heaters, and cooling towers. The site also includes a fire-water pump and fire-water dam to SUPPORT SAFE OPERATIONS.
Storage Facilities
We have a warehouse on site that can hold up to 3,500 finished goods drums at any one time, as well as a large tank farm containing stainless steel and mild steel tank’s. Our tanks are dedicated to specific products, thereby eliminating the possibility of contamination. As well as the aboveground tanks, we also maintain underground tanks to ensure adequate raw materials are available throughout the year for production.
