April - May 2015

COMPANY SHOWCASE

ccording to B&E managing direc-

tor Dewald Janse van Rensburg,

the company is currently busy with

a range of diverse contracts, from

supplying aggregates for roadworks

and infrastructure development to mining projects.

“This showcases our diversity and flexibility in being

able to meet a range of customer requirements.”

B&E International was established in 1972 in

the Eastern Cape. It soon formed its own mobile

and static crushing division, followed by further

diversification into mining services and bulk min-

ing and minerals processing and beneficiation. B&E

International was acquired by the Raubex Group

in 2009, completing its transformation as a total

solutions provider in the mining and construction

industries.

“There was a time in the infrastructure sector

when a lot of contractors opted for in-house crush-

ing, but this has changed significantly over the

years. There are very few contractors that choose

this option, as it is now correctly perceived as a

specialist skill set. With this follows the recognition

that it requires the knowledge and applications

experience of a seasoned operator,” Janse van

Rensburg says. “B&E International is that operator.”

What gives B&E International the leading edge

in this highly competitive market is its extensive

fleet of equipment and machinery, which caters

for a range of applications from mobile crush-

ing and screening to surface mining and mineral

processing, in addition to specialised equipment

such as Comar batch and continuous asphalt

plants. This extensive range of equipment gives

the company the flexibility to be able to respond

to its customers’ specific requirements by offering

customised solutions.

“A lot of competitors think it is relatively

straightforward to offer such a complete pack-

age, but in the long run they realised they could

not make it work. They do not have the necessary

experience to give customers a single solution for

all their needs. Thus the trend is definitely towards

outsourcing on the contracting side, especially in

terms of infrastructure development,” Janse van

Rensburg says. “We are uniquely placed to be

able to offer such a comprehensive service, not to

The major differentiator

for B&E International is that

it can deliver tailor-made

packages for specific client

applications.

Experience and depth of resources are what gives B&E Interna-

tional the competitive edge in the local market. The company has

positioned itself as a ‘partner of choice’ for the mining and con-

struction industries, due to its integrated crushing and screening

and mineral processing solutions.
