In July 2021, Palian Manufacturing (Pty) Ltd proudly secured the project from De Beers Marine (Pty) Ltd, the world’s leading diamond mining company, to provide an efficient storage solution for their revolutionary new mining vessel in Cape Town Harbour.
After careful evaluation, Palian’s Pre-galvanized Bolted Shelving system combined with their Powder coated Cantilever Racking system emerged as the optimal choice for De Beers’ mining vessel. The innovative and robust design ensured the safe and organized storage of precious cargo while withstanding the demanding marine environment.
Commencing the manufacturing process in mid-July 2021, Palian swiftly delivered the materials to the mining vessel by mid-August 2021. The installation team sprang into action on the same day as delivery, orchestrating a seamless execution that culminated in the project’s triumphant completion in the first week of September 2021. A remarkable feat, the entire project was accomplished within a remarkable six weeks, showcasing Palian’s commitment to efficiency and excellence.
Two key factors primarily contributed to the resounding success of this project:
Firstly, Palian Manufacturing fostered a close collaboration with De Beers Marine’s specialists from the project’s inception, providing regular updates throughout the manufacturing and installation process. This transparent and collaborative approach ensured that the end product met the precise requirements of De Beers, fostering a sense of trust and satisfaction.
Secondly, the constant communication between Palian’s team and the installation crew was integral in ensuring that the installation adhered to the predetermined schedule. Any potential roadblocks were promptly addressed, streamlining the process and reinforcing Palian’s reputation for reliable project management.
Once again, Palian Manufacturing (Pty) Ltd has proven its mettle, delivering a superior product backed by exceptional customer service. De Beers Marine (Pty) Ltd now stands as a delighted and fulfilled customer, ready to embark on their diamond mining endeavors with confidence and efficiency. This successful collaboration between two industry leaders sets a benchmark for future projects and solidifies Palian Manufacturing’s position as a trusted and sought-after solution provider in the marine and mining sectors.
