Mamlambo Construction really puts its Bell 315 TLBs to work in a wide range of applications such as stockpiling material, digging and backfilling trenches, feeding mobile concrete plants and fitting hydraulic hammers onto backhoe booms.
The parent company, the Independent Group, and Bell Equipment have had a long history dating back to 2002 when the first equipment was bought from the original equipment manufacturer in Richards Bay.
The Mamlambo company is made up of three independent multidisciplinary groups (Mamlambo Construction, Independent Crushers and Independent Concrete) that works in road and dam construction as well as civil engineering projects. Because of some difficulties recently encountered in the construction and rehabilitation of roads, Mamlambo decided to focuse more its attention to civil engineering projects, which also include wind farms, the construction in progress for the expansion of the Mercedes Benz plant, various projects within the industrial development zone of East London and water projects.
Water-related projects include a three-year contract with the Buffalo City Municipality for specifically maintaining water, sewer and storm water infrastructure within the Buffalo City Metropolitan area. For this project, The company recently decided to replace older machines with two new Bell 315SL TLBs, which will also be available for intra-company hire.
“Prior to taking delivery of the new Bell 315SL TLBs, I went to visit the Bell factory in Richards Bay as my team had a few questions regarding some maintenance issues, we received very special treatment at the factory”,
said Jarred Randall, CEO of Mamlambo Construction. Many designers and technical analysts at Bell assisted the Mamlambo’s team with while the mechanics in East London could put questions to them via a speaker phone.
With a fleet of seven Bell Tractor Loader Backhoes (TLBs), Mamlambo Construction values the versatility, reliability and power in both the front bucket and backhoe.
The Independent Group had set the pace of ownership of Bell machines dating back to 2002 and currently run 11 Bell Articulated Dump Trucks ranging from a Bell B25C to Bell B30E models. The most recent acquisition was a Bell L1506E Wheeled Loader, which is used to load sand and aggregate at the company’s East London concrete batching plant.
