Tzaneen notes on machines & equipment
Small yards in Nkowankowa and Lenyenye run egg-laying machines, and some farms buy block machines to make blocks for staff housing. Humidity is kind to curing but hard on steel, so ask about painted or galvanised frames and sealed motors. Ask the supplier about moulds for blocks and pavers, output with your crew, and how quickly spares reach Tzaneen.
Building with brick in Tzaneen
Fruit farms, forestry and a warm, wet climate set Tzaneen apart. Citrus, avocado, mango and banana farms around Letsitele and the valleys need packhouses, stores and staff housing, while the town adds homes, flats and shops. Nkowankowa and Lenyenye grow with family houses in cement blocks, and village yards supply much of the work. Up in the mist belt around Haenertsburg and Magoebaskloof, holiday cottages and lodges often use face brick or stone. Humidity helps fresh bricks cure, but heavy summer rain washes out open slabs and leaves damp walls if the DPC is skipped. Steep sites call for retaining blocks, and sand comes from the rivers and pits of the district.
Who asks for block making machines around Tzaneen, most often first:
- Farms and smallholdings: blocks for stores, pump houses, dairy sheds and farm boundary walls
- Homeowners: making hollow blocks for a long boundary wall or a garage at home
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: blocks made on site for boundary walls, outbuildings and quick structural walls
