Early 2000, Dave worked with a sale representative to develop a version of a bag that was similar to a fertiliser bag that would stand up to heavy loads of schist stone and lifting.
It took a fair amount of trial and error but we’ve developed a good solid bag that we reply on now.
The bags have been upgraded since the first version, specifically to handle the strength and UV protection, as they tend to sit outside in the blistering hot Central Otago sun during peak construction season.
So despite the hard wearing ‘forever’ nature of the product we’re mining, we know incremental improvements are still the way forward!
