Construction World March 2017

Tubular Plant Hire is a division of Tubular Technical Construction, wholly-owned by Tubular Holdings, one of the largest privately-owned construction companies in South Africa.

Strategic partnership Schneiderman highlights that a strategic partnership such as the longstanding one that has been forged between Goscor Access Rental and Tubular Plant Hire is peace-of-mind that both companies can rely on each other. “This is in addition to the obvious networking potential from a business point of view that is unlocked by such a relationship.” Commenting on the current state of the mining and construction industries, Schneiderman is confident that tenders for major projects will begin to see the light of day from July this year. “There is significant potential for actual work in the pipeline, which means the market will be busy again by year-end. There is a much more positive outlook at the moment than there has been for the past two years,” he concludes. “I salute my team for always going the extra mile and exceeding customer expectations, as amply demonstrated with Tubular Plant Hire. “The years of 24-7-365 from every team member has resulted in such successful partnerships, and we look forward to growing this fruitful relationship,” comments Goscor Access Rental managing director Andrew Kendrick. 

Tubular Holdings focuses on mining processes, planning management, and execution of turnkey projects.

Time and cost-savings “The access equipment we have on hire from Goscor Access Rental results in significant time and cost-savings over traditional construction methods which, in turn, gives us a competitive edge. Not only is it important for us to retain our competitive edge in doing so, we also cannot afford to be left behind in introducing the latest innovations to our customers,” Schneiderman comments. Tubular Plant Hire’s relationship with Goscor Access Rental to date has been characterised by a willingness on the part of the latter to become involved in the nitty- gritty of its daily operational challenges. “What facilitates this excellent two-way communication is that Goscor Access Rental is capable of falling in line with our requirements and internal procedures and communication channels.”
