When second-hand makes ‘cents’
EMS Group is responding to strong demand for equipment as customers seek to replace ageing fleets and invest in additional machines in response to improved market conditions.
And, in the interests of affordability and efficiencies, savvy operations are seeking quality second-hand equipment over new.
“In the mining industry it’s vital to keep things running smoothly, productively and profitably,” EMS Group director Tom Cavanagh said.
“Our clients find they can get a ground-up rebuilt machine quicker and more competitively priced than buying new.”
EMS Group has one of the largest selections of underground mining equipment in Australia, with access to teams of highly skilled tradespeople and distribution points in east and west coast locations.
In 2016/17, EMS Group delivered 10 major rebuilds – a number it exceeded in the third quarter of 2017/18.
