About us

Industrial machinery manufacturers in China, supplying South Africa

We are a Chinese manufacturer and exporter of industrial machinery, supplying distributors, factories, contractors and government buyers across South Africa. Everything is built to order in our own works, checked before it leaves the floor, and shipped with the paperwork handled in-house rather than passed to a third party.

Industrial machinery built in China for export to South Africa

Our product range for South Africa

We supply food processing and packing lines, agricultural and irrigation machinery, hand tools and workshop equipment, garage and automotive tools, solar power systems, water and waste water treatment plants, construction machinery, fire safety equipment, power and electrical products, and military and defence supplies. Most of what we ship to South Africa serves mining and mineral processing, automotive component manufacture, food processing and agriculture.

Bulk supply to South Africa

Volume buyers in South Africa are quoted against quantity, not against a shelf price. Because one desk handles both the factory order and the shipping, a bulk enquiry can be combined with other ranges into a single consignment, which brings the cost per unit down and leaves you with one set of documents instead of several. Give us the quantity, the port of discharge and the date the equipment is needed on site, and you get banded unit pricing with packing dimensions, gross weights and container fill confirmed in writing.

The production plan is set when the order is confirmed: three to six weeks for machines built to specification, seven to ten working days for stocked items. Pre-dispatch inspection is carried out on every consignment, with photographs and a written report issued before loading, and third-party inspection by SGS or Bureau Veritas can be added on request.

Tender supply and public procurement

A bid in South Africa usually fails on its documents rather than on its price. We quote against public tenders, ministry and municipal purchases and EPC subcontracts, and we issue what the bid file asks for: a manufacturer's authorisation letter, a country of origin declaration, technical datasheets for every line item, a compliance statement written against the bill of quantities, warranty terms and a delivery programme. Send the tender document or the BOQ with the closing date and we will mark up what we can cover before you commit to bidding.

Shipping and compliance for South Africa

Consignments discharge at Durban, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Richards Bay, and the sea leg runs 24 to 32 days from Chinese ports. You can take the goods FOB and appoint your own forwarder, or have us quote CIF to a named port; either way the packing list, crate dimensions and gross weights are confirmed on the quotation before you commit. Mining houses and their contractors tend to buy against a shutdown date, so we quote lead time to site rather than lead time to port.

Electrical equipment is built to the local supply at the factory rather than adapted after arrival, at 230V at 50Hz, with Type M and Type N plugs, and manuals and control markings are supplied in English. Where goods are regulated we arrange the NRCS letter of authority that regulated electrical and mechanical goods require.

To get a quotation, send the machine or specification, the quantity and the destination port in South Africa. You will have a written quote back within 24 hours on working days, covering unit price, lead time, packing dimensions and shipping terms.

Supplying South Africa

Shipping, compliance and lead times for South Africa

Consignments for South Africa discharge at Durban, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Richards Bay, with the sea leg running 24 to 32 days from Chinese ports. You can take the goods FOB and appoint your own forwarder, or have us quote CIF to a named port. Either way the crate dimensions, gross weights and container fill are confirmed in writing before the order is placed.

Machines are wired for South Africa before they leave the factory — 230V / 50Hz, Type M and Type N plugs — with English manuals and control markings as standard. For regulated goods we arrange the NRCS letter of authority required for regulated electrical and mechanical goods, and starting that at the order stage rather than after loading is what keeps a first shipment on schedule.

The bulk of our shipments to South Africa serve mining support, food processing, agriculture and manufacturing. Where the order is a tender we prepare the manufacturer’s authorisation, a compliance statement mapped line by line to the bill of quantities, and a quotation held for the tender validity period.
