Middelburg notes on machines & equipment
A manual brick machine or a small electric egg-layer is how many Mhluzi brick businesses begin, selling to neighbours building rooms. Farmers sometimes buy a block machine to make their own blocks for sheds. Ask the supplier about moulds for maxi bricks, blocks and pavers, the power needed, and output with your mould and crew. Plan a covered curing area because of the frost.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Middelburg
Frost on winter mornings is the first thing a Middelburg brick maker plans around. Cement bricks made on a slab in June need covering overnight, or the surface flakes and the strength never comes. The town builds steadily: family homes and townhouses in Aerorand and Kanonkop, RDP and self-built houses in Mhluzi, workshops for the steel works and mines, and farm sheds and staff houses out on the Hendrina and Belfast roads. Brickyards and block yards in town carry stock and clay face bricks come in from bigger works. Plenty of people start a small brick business here with a manual or electric machine. Ask for delivery with offloading if the site is a farm or a narrow township street.
Typical brick and block moulds requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: plastic moulds for making your own pavers, stepping stones or garden edging
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: an extra machine mould so one machine makes bricks and blocks for a job
- Farms and smallholdings: a block mould for farm walls and stores on a machine you already have
