Eazi Access’ Custom-Fit Solutions for the Mining Industry
In a high-cost environment, where external pressures challenge already tight margins, mining companies must focus on production efficiencies and maintain rigorous safety standards in demanding conditions. Eazi Access is Africa’s market leader in work-at-height and material-handling solutions, offering Rental, Sales, Servicing, and Training across various industries, with a particular focus on the mining sector.
Eazi Access provides tailor-made solutions for mining clients across Africa, recognising the unique requirements of each site, whether opencast or underground. By partnering with leading Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), Eazi Access ensures that each machine on-site is fit-for-purpose, enabling customers to optimise productivity while minimising operating costs.
Gerhard Kloppers, Eazi Access Business Development Manager, explains that working with mining clients starts with detailed planning and on-site assessment. Eazi Access conducts thorough diagnostics, including measurements and assessments of the work environment, to fully understand the customer’s objectives. Based on these evaluations, they recommend the best-fit equipment or solution for each job.
For mining operations, Eazi Access provides a complete range of equipment, from machines reaching up to 58 metres in height to small pallet jacks for warehouse use. According to Kloppers, “Depending on the mine’s requirements, they can buy or rent equipment from Eazi Access. For rental, we set up an on-site solution, including staff, operators, and fit-for-purpose equipment scheduled as required. Maintenance and operating costs are covered by Eazi Access.”
The company’s extensive equipment range includes the Linde Material Handling forklift series, telehandlers, boom lifts, and scissor lifts. Selected models are available with diesel engines, electric drives (offering lead-acid or lithium-ion battery options), LP Gas, or Hydrogen fuel cells. Eazi Access also provides various attachments—such as cylinder clamps, forks, hooks, winches, and buckets—that enhance machine performance and versatility, adaptable to telehandlers, forklifts, and more.
Eazi Access offers 24/7 technical support to ensure mining production schedules remain uninterrupted, alongside parts, service, and maintenance for all supplied machines. “Our safety promise underscores every facet of our business,” Kloppers emphasises, noting that Eazi Access’s training courses meet the industry’s highest standards, focusing on safe operations and quality.
By partnering with Eazi Access, mining companies can streamline their supply chains, focus on productivity, and ensure that their operations continue efficiently and safely.
