Refuelling mobile equipment on mine sites can be challenging if operators must rely solely on traditional stationary diesel storage tanks that are in a fixed location on site. Operators lose time driving mobile equipment back to refilling stations, which slows down their productivity and burns up additional diesel fuel during the trip.

Cleaner, cooler air with the best in extraction tech
Australia’s harsh climate can be unforgiving, and when working in industrial environments, it is crucial to ensure adequate cooling and ventilation systems are in place. Whether it is an enclosed warehouse or factory setting, steel structures tend to amplify heat internally, contributing to worker fatigue. Hot air may also build up from machinery, and with nowhere to go it will become stagnant, creating the perfect environment for particle pollution.

Pushing the boundaries of fluid power
Everyone has different ideas on which component is most crucial to helping industrial equipment run. Some argue that bearings matter the most, as they hold everything together, while others claim that belts are the backbone of keeping things in motion. Needless to say, every element plays a role, and one missing or damaged part could mean catastrophe for operators.
