Concept Trucking is further advanced by equipment conceived and developed by Metal Line
such as the Solvidt which provides spillage-free transport, and the mobile and collapsible Boxore

SOLVIDT SOLUTION
The unique Solvidt system enables the group to package and load bulk minerals onto flatbed trucks, using retired conveyor systems as insulation.
The system provides clients with an effective alternative to bulk rail transport, enabling mineral owners to mitigate common service delivery failures in to keep moving cargo.
Solvidt is employed at the group’s head office handling facility, The Hub, where chrome and iron ore is bundled and loaded onto trucks. In Durban, the reverse operation is performed by Metal Line staff to transfer cargo to stockpiles and onto the vessel
The successfully defended Solvidt patent is owned within the family of legacy shareholders, with irrevocable exclusivity granted to the owners of Metal Line Holdings.
BOXORE SOLUTION
Developed in 2018, MLA prides itself on yet another smart trucking solution designed for the usage of moving bulk ore via flat deck/tautliner trucking applications.
BOXORE allows for cargo to be pre-loaded, weighed and staged ready for dispatch adding significant value to any supply chain by improving efficiencies and accuracy. Minimal labour required, no spillage and maximum payload are just some of the advantage points BOXORE offers including compatibility with PBS trucking applications allowing us to achieve up to 52ton per vehicle – a staggering 18t (33%) more per load than any standard truck payload (34t).
Patented in AIRPO (Botswana, Swaziland, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia & Zimbabwe), China, USA, Australia, & South Africa. We are confident that BOXORE will cement itself as one of the preferred methods to transport bulk ore across any platform.
