Modern Quarrying April May 2015

3 / 48

Midmar Crushers has been the enabling
factor in the expansion and growth the
Midmar Group. MQ travels to Howick and
meets up with the dynamic team, to find
out that business integrity is still a top prior-
ity for this independent quarry. Times have
been tough for the industry as a whole, and
Midway Crushers has gone through a fair
amount of its own challenges.
Experience and depth of resources are
what gives B&E International the competi-
tive edge in the local market. The company
has positioned itself as a ‘partner of choice’
for the mining and construction industries,
through its integrated crushing, screening
and mineral processing solutions. The com-
pany is more than able to meet a range of
customer requirements.

ing and the products on offer.
The last quarter has flashed by for the
