DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Manufacture
and Wholesale of Machinery for Mining, Quarrying and Construction in
South Africa 2019” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s
offering.
The volume of special purpose machinery produced increased by 5.5%
between December 2017 and December 2018, while the sales value of these
products at current prices rose by 8.2% over the same period. Seasonally
adjusted sales value of special purpose machinery was R5.55bn in
December 2018. Manufacturers and wholesalers of mining, quarrying and
construction machinery are experiencing subdued demand for their
products due to low levels of investment in the mining industry and
limited activity in the construction sector.
A number of initiatives aimed at boosting the sector include the launch
of the Mining Equipment Manufacturers of South Africa, which aims to
develop a world-class mining equipment manufacturing sector, as well as
government’s announcement of a R400bn infrastructure fund and the new
Mining Charter which has brought some policy certainty to the sector.
However, a recent report said the competitiveness of South African
manufacturers is being reduced by import competition, especially from
China. Manufacturers blame this on a lack of protection in the capital
equipment industry and the fact that state-owned companies and
municipalities prefer imported equipment.
This report covers the manufacture and wholesale of machinery for
mining, quarrying and construction including statistics up to December
2018. The report discusses the size and state of the industry and
factors influencing its success. There are comprehensive profiles of 58
notable companies including large companies such as Barloworld and Bell
Equipment. Other companies profiled include Komatsu Africa which opened
a new R985m industrial campus in Germiston, Gauteng, in November 2018
and Osborn Engineered Products which is celebrating its 100th
anniversary in 2019.
