CRUSHING AND SCREENING

Keestrack focuses on lower cost per tonne in Africa Juanita Pienaar spoke with Deepak Pandit, Keestrack (Country Manager – eTrack, Area Sales Manager for the Middle East, SAARC, South and East Africa, and Head – Global Application Support), about the growing demand for mobile crushing and screening equipment in Africa, the shift towards electrification and the importance of looking beyond purchase price to the real cost of production.

Mobility meets the application Keestrack has built its business around mobile crushing and screening, supplying equipment for quarrying, mining, aggregates, recycling and mineral processing. Founded in Belgium in 1996, the company now has more than 1 100 employees, manufacturing facilities across Europe and Asia, and a distributor network covering almost 100 countries. For Africa, mobility addresses both logistical and operational challenges.

The highest throughput on paper does not always translate into the lowest cost per saleable tonne in actual operation.
