MAGNA, the Terex brand of mobile crushing, screening and conveying equipment established to meet the needs of large-scale operations, has announced the appointment of MMD Mineral Sizing Africa as its distributor for several countries across southern Africa. It said this collaboration marks a powerful endorsement from one of the mining industry’s most respected names.
Neil McIlwaine, Business Line Director for MAGNA comments: “This is more than just a new distributor announcement. MMD is a designer, manufacturer and engineering company in its own right, with a long-standing reputation for engineering excellence and customer-first service. Their decision to sell, support and service our complete lineup of MAGNA equipment across southern Africa is a strong signal that our machines meet the rigorous demands of large-scale mining operations, and that our commitment to customer support aligns with their own.”
He added: “This is also a flagship moment as it marks the first time MMD will represent a Terex brand. Their choice of MAGNA reflects a shared belief in delivering robust, quality solutions, developed specifically for customers handling larger volumes and requiring superior output performance.”
With over four decades of innovation, MMD has helped shape the future of materials processing. Its tailored solutions and proprietary technologies are trusted across the mining, quarrying, and recycling sectors. From compact machines to large-scale mobile sizer stations, MMD’s expertise spans the full spectrum of operational needs for these industries.
MMD has long recognised Africa as one of the world’s most important mining markets, with large-scale operations demanding high-output, reliable equipment and responsive service. In 2004, MMD expanded its manufacturing footprint beyond the UK by establishing a plant in South Africa, bringing production closer to the heart of the industry. This move was driven by demand and a commitment to better serve customers in the region.
By adding MAGNA to its portfolio, MMD is now equipped to offer a diverse and comprehensive product range to African mining operations. MAGNA is built for scale, designed to meet the demands of high-output operations up to 1,500 t/h and backed by decades of experience and the strength of Terex’s world-leading brands.
Janis Lombard, Director for MMD Mineral Sizing (Africa) Pty Limited said: “This collaboration brings together two brands that understand the importance of performance, reliability, and customer service. We are excited to become part of the MAGNA distribution network and look forward to supporting our customers with machinery that’s built for the biggest challenges.”
