Midrand notes on machines & equipment
Ivory Park and Kaalfontein have many stands where a small egg-laying machine sells cement bricks straight to the street. The industrial stands around Olifantsfontein and Commercia suit a larger static machine or a small plant with a pan mixer. Smallholdings in Glen Austin and Blue Hills can take an engine driven machine where three phase power is not available. Ask the supplier which moulds come standard and what spares they keep.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Midrand
Halfway between Johannesburg and Pretoria, Midrand has grown on the open land along the N1, and much of the building is new: estates in Waterfall, Kyalami and Carlswald, rows of sectional title complexes in Noordwyk and Vorna Valley, and office and logistics parks near Allandale Road. To the east, Ivory Park, Ebony Park and Rabie Ridge add rooms and rental units in cement bricks bought from small yards or made on the stand. Developers order face brick and plaster bricks in bulk, so ask about the full order up front for colour. Yards sit around Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein and Halfway House. The ridges catch wind that dries fresh bricks fast in spring, and summer storms here can be violent.
Typical brick making machines requests in the area come from:
- Housing developers and complexes: a static or hydraulic machine supplying bricks across a housing project or township extension
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: making cement bricks on site for a job instead of trucking pallets in
- Homeowners: a small machine to make your own bricks for a house, outbuilding or boundary wall
Local tips for Midrand
Most asked for in Midrand: bulk face and plaster bricks for complexes, cement bricks in Ivory Park. Where the yards and suppliers are: yards around Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein and Halfway House, off the N1 and R562. A useful tip: ask the yard to hold one batch number for the whole job when ordering face brick.
Requests range widely: manual egg-layers to hydraulic static presses. Here, housing developers and complexes lead the requests, typically for a static or hydraulic machine supplying bricks across a housing project or township extension. One local point to raise: trucks run from yards on the N1 corridor; sand by tipper from pits to the west.
