About CMA
The Conveyor Manufacturers Association membership,
serving the bulk materials handling industry,
comprises companies who design, manufacture and
commission complete conveyor systems. Membership
also includes manufacturers and suppliers of
components for use in conveyor systems.The
members are required to maintain a high level of
technical expertise and service within their
organisations, as well as an effective after sales
service. Further they must be companies of stature,
fully capable of honouring any warranty claim that
may arise.

The CMA members have a wealth of expertise and
specialised technical knowledge, much of which was
developed locally, and most CMA companies have
access to worldwide experience through international
affiliations and licence programmes.
The South African conveyor industry suffers from an
extremely large number of manufacturers all
competing fiercely for a limited amount of business.
The short term savings effected through the purchase
of low quality product are soon lost in premature
replacement, and in some cases the original supplier
is no longer in business or in a position to provide
a meaningful guarantee.
The CMA appeals to purchasers to look beyond pure
price considerations, and ensure the growth of the
industry where companies can progress by
re-investing part of their income in product
development and innovative engineering.
