Contractor says equipment provider critical to its success

Engineering solutions provider Babcock’s transparency, combined with its range of leading construction equipment and its successful collaborations with customers, struck a chord with Lomeza Mining Services, who required reliable construction equipment to fulfil its obligations for a long-term contract to load and haul overburden in Delmas. Lomeza Mining Services MD Simon Mkhonza says he initially approached Babcock three years ago seeking reliable construction equipment for diversified miner Exxaro’s Leeuwpan coal mine. Today Lomeza’s fleet includes 18 Babcock-supplied Volvo Construction Equipment machines that have helped the growing business meet and increase its production capacity.
