Ultra Scales Windhoek
Commitment to service and passion for this unique industry keeps Ultra Scales Windhoek cc in business
Mining is an important source of business for many Namibian companies such as Ultra Scales Windhoek CC.
According to part owner Corné Visser, this family business survives the harsh Namibian environment thanks to a shared passion for their specialised industry and exceptional service.
“I think our success was born from that,” he said.
Ultra Scales Windhoek CC and Ultra Scales CC in Walvis Bay supply equipment to almost all the mines in Namibia with weighbridges, belt weighers, weigh feeders, through-put weighers, industrial platforms as well as loader and excavator weighing systems.
They also supply and service lab balances, industrial weighing, retail weighing and special weighing.
“We strive to stay professional and I believe the rest will follow,” says Visser.
Like the Namibian mining industry in general, Ultra Scales was hit hard by the global economic meltdown and associated drop in mineral prices on international markets.
“We definitely felt it! Cash is tight and all projects were put on hold, even dayto-day maintenance was cut in half,” he says. Despite these conditions the company has survives through self-reliance and a die-hard attitude. “We cart our own equipment and we have our own test truck with a crane and test weights, the same one we use to test our weighbridges,” Visser says.
The business was started by his uncle Leon Badenhorst who founded the Walvis Bay branch and is an equal partner in the Windhoek based business.
With a resurgence in commodity prices widely expected the future looks bright for Ultra Scales. “Clients and customers around the country can be sure of one thing: Regardless of the circumstances, this family business will stay in the running,” he said.
