68 machines, built and configured for industrial materials handling. Loaders that lift it. Loggers that handle it. Tractors that haul it. Hooklifts that move it between sites.
Every machine in our fleet is selected, configured, and maintained for one thing: moving material reliably through an industrial mill. The platforms come from four established global OEMs. The configuration comes from three generations of operating experience.
Each category exists because the work demands it. The mix on any given site is configured around the specific handling problem we've been engaged to solve.
The bulk of our fleet. Configured for log handling, chip handling, canting, and mill yard operations. Komatsu, Doosan/Develon, and Volvo platforms — built to run double shifts in dust, mud, and timber yards.
Bell 225 series. South African-built machines designed specifically for log handling — not adapted from a general-purpose chassis. Engineered for sawmill log decks, forestry log yards, and pole operations.
Tractors configured for in-yard material haulage. Move processed and unprocessed material between handling points, support kiln stacking, and link operations across larger mill footprints. The connective tissue of an integrated operation.
Hooklift configurations for moving bins, containers, and bulk materials between operations and within larger mill footprints. The mobile element of the materials-handling chain — and what makes integrated multi-site operations possible.
Equipment selection isn't about brand loyalty. It's about matching the right platform to the right operation. Each of these manufacturers brings something specific to industrial materials handling.
WA320, WA380 and WA200 class wheel loaders, configured for log and chip handling. The bulk of our materials-handling capacity. Robust, fuel-efficient, well-supported.
DL250A, DL300A and DL420A class wheel loaders, configured for canting, log loading and chip handling. Strong hydraulics, well-suited to industrial duty cycles.
L70 and L90 class platforms, including our engineered forklift-mast conversions for kiln-stacking and timber handling. Where a standard forklift can't take the work, the Volvo conversion does.
225 series log loaders — specialised log-handling machines designed and built in South Africa. Robust, simple to maintain, well-suited to forestry and sawmill operations.
A well-built materials-handling machine has a working life measured in decades — if the frame is looked after. Most operators run their machines until something major fails and then sell them on. We don't.
Our core fleet is rebuilt on a planned cycle: stripped to the frame, inspected, reconditioned, reassembled. Engines, hydraulics, transmissions go back together to OEM specification or better.
It's a more disciplined way to manage capital, and a more disciplined way to manage uptime.
Critical-path components are held in-house, reconditioned and ready to swap. When a machine drops out of service, the next one is hours away from the site — not weeks away from a supplier's warehouse.
It's not glamorous. It's not on any specification sheet. It's the difference between an inconvenience and a production stoppage.
Tell us the operation and the duty cycle. We'll configure the right machine for it.
