Atlantis to Kalbaskraal and for the upgrade

soil stabilisation applications.
“AfriSam works with its customers to
accommodate specific material requirements
and mix designs, and our flexibility has
enabled us to work at the cutting edge with
architects to facilitate the construction of new
architectural finishes,” Smit says. Examples of
this include unique off-shutter finishes as well
as unique flooring solutions.
“At the end of the day, it is all about
relationships and the ease with which our
customers can do business with us. We
will continue to provide the high level of
responsiveness for which we are known in the
Western Cape and look forward to the exciting
developments that this region will see in the
next few years,” Smit concludes.
PICTURES CLOCKWISE:
AfriSam acquired its Peninsula Aggregate quarry
almost 30 years ago. This quarry produces
quality aggregates for the construction and built
environment, the civils industry, the precast and
retail sector.
During 2014, AfriSam erected a 70 m³ per hour
readymix plant at Saldanha Bay to ensure that
customers across the entire Saldanha municipal
area have ready access to quality concrete.
AfriSam operates a fleet of over 50 readymix
trucks in the Western Cape transporting this
material from its six readymix plants in the
area, including the recently established plant
in the Saldanha Bay Industrial Development
Zone, to customers across the Western Cape.
Its aggregates are supplied from quarries in
Durbanville and Malmesbury.
