MMD Mineral Sizing Africa appointed to meet the demands of large-scale African operations
MAGNA, the Terex brand of mobile crushing, screening and conveying equipment established to meet the needs of large-scale operations, have appointed MMD Mineral Sizing Africa (MMD) as their distributor for several countries across Southern Africa.
Neil McIlwaine, business line director for MAGNA, commented: ‘This is more than just a new distributor announcement. MMD is a designer, manufacturer and engineering company in its own right, with a long-standing reputation for engineering excellence and customer-first service.
‘Their decision to sell, support, and service our complete line-up of MAGNA equipment across Southern Africa is a strong signal that our machines meet the rigorous demands of large-scale mining operations, and that our commitment to customer support aligns with their own.
‘This is also a flagship moment as it marks the first time MMD will represent a Terex brand. Their choice of MAGNA reflects a shared belief in delivering robust, quality solutions, developed specifically for customers handling larger volumes and requiring superior output performance.’
With more than four decades of innovation, MMD have helped shape the future of materials processing with tailored solutions and proprietary technologies that are trusted across the mining, quarrying, and recycling sectors. From compact machines to large-scale mobile sizer stations, MMD’s expertise spans the full spectrum of operational needs for these industries.
In 2004, MMD expanded their manufacturing footprint beyond the UK by establishing a plant in South Africa – a move driven by demand and a commitment to better serve customers in the region.
By adding MAGNA to their portfolio, MMD are now equipped to offer a diverse and comprehensive product range to African operations. MAGNA equipment is built for scale, designed to meet the demands of high-output operations up to 1,500 tonnes/h, and backed by decades of experience and the strength of Terex’s world-leading brands.
Janis Lombard, director of MMD Mineral Sizing (Africa) Pty Ltd, said: ‘This collaboration brings together two brands that understand the importance of performance, reliability, and customer service. We are excited to become part of the MAGNA distribution network and look forward to supporting our customers with machinery that’s built for the biggest challenges.’
