Equipment

  • Each team has an Isuzu LDV, trailer and each foreman has a cell phone to ensure that we can contact them from base at all times.
  • To speed up installations where soil conditions permit, we have a Ditchwitch 1820 and one Vermeer RTx 250 walk behind chain trenchers. 
  • We also utilise our own Ride-On Vermeer RT450 Chain Trencher on larger projects. 
  • Compaction of trenching is done with our own Wacker compactors and should site storage be required we utilize 3m x 6m Containers.

Training

  • A strong emphasis is placed on ongoing training which is done by assisting personnel to attend courses as well as providing in-house training. 
  • We are currently in the process of implementing a life skills training course for the less skilled employees as well as a more advanced course for the personnel with higher school qualifications.

Empowerment Policy

  • We are committed to ensuring that we develop the previously disadvantaged individuals in our company to the point where they can become managers and eventually shareholders in the company.
  • We are doing our best to ensure that a genuine transfer of all level of skills are passed on to our employees.
