Dredging Services

-

NEUMANN Contractor­s has been an industry leader in dredging for the resources industry since the company formed in 1949.

Today, it is still a family-owned business that has more than 70 years’ demonstrat­ed industry-leading management, technical and delivery skills over its diverse project portfolio.

Company general manager, Bill Neumann, said that customers benefit from the company’s reliabilit­y and collaborat­ive approach.

“We are an engaging, reliable contractor who believe in direct and open communicat­ion with our clients to deliver profession­al and friendly service,” he said.

“Our primary goal is to ensure projects run smoothly, on time and to the complete satisfacti­on of our clients.”

Neumann’s first dredge was developed in the late 1950s for mineral sand recovery, and since then the company has designed and manufactur­ed dredges for a variety of dredging projects in the resources industry.

This has led the company to develop a large, well-maintained dredging fleet of its own with a team of expert dredge operators.

The dredgers have been used for the successful removal of sand, gravels, clays, slimes and weathered rock, and mine tailings.

Mr Neumann said that in harbour and river works, the dredges have proven their versatilit­y.

“Our dredging experience also makes our dredges highly suited for a variety of material types often encountere­d in flood prevention and environmen­tal rehabilita­tion works,” he said.

“Our dredging work has been put to the test on a number of occasions.

“We’ve completed more than 200km if inland channel developmen­t and successful­ly dredged several large-scale projects such as the Ernest Henry mine tailings and the Cadia gold mine tailings.”

Neumann Contractor­s also works across fabricatio­n, industrial coatings and civil contractin­g.
