Projects

Metex is located in the middle of one of the world’s great mining areas, and near to more than 20 mines, refineries and smelters. Because of this, we have extensive experience in designing, building and repairing heavy-duty steel structures such as chutes, ore passes and slag pots for the mining industry. We also have experience with a diverse range of other products, such as e-house structures, access platforms and ladders, vehicle chassis, pulp dryers, bridges and process equipment.
