The branch is managed by Trevor Veeradu, whose engineering expertise has stood him in good stead with regard to industrial gearboxes and conveying systems, specialising in light and heavy duty rubber belting, and thereafter hydraulics and pneumatics.

BI Durban offers support to the entire province, as well as supplying customised solutions for largescale technical projects. The branch has an in-house division that refurbishes sugar mill carrier and diffuser chains, as well as assembling and supplying new chain. It also manufactures specialised sprockets as per customer requirements.

Staff are kept up to date through ongoing training, which is also offered to customers upon request. “Our strength lies in our people and knowledge, and our commitment to servicing the customers who have supported us over the last 65 years,” concludes Veeradu. “We have great plans to extend our product offering even further in the future and, as part of the Hudaco Group, our value proposition to customers is commensurately larger.”
