Pipes manufacturer increases focus on quality in Africa

Plastic pipes and fittings manufacturer and distributor Marley Pipe Systems is prioritising “quality without compromise” and educating the market that the cheaper option is not always best, as increased maintenance increases the costs of a mine. Marley Pipe Systems sales and marketing manager Pranesh Maniraj tells Mining Weekly that the company’s presence in the African mining industry is expanding, as miners are rejecting the attitude that “anything goes in Africa”, and are starting to realise the benefits of investing in higher-quality products.
