DavyMarkham picks up double award

DavyMarkham has a long history of building single and double drum winders for the global mining industry, although in North America these are referred to as mining hoists. Typically, these large units, up to 6.6m in diameter and beyond, are fabricated in more manageable sections, so that they can be easily handled by on-site EOTs in the mining headframe or even deep underground.

The firm scooped the Halliwells Excellence In International Trade Award, recognising successful development in international markets and the Wake Smith Manufacturing Award, for demonstrating significant improvements in productivity.
