for duty.
Why Milcon
Built for
hard conditions.
Mining and industrial sites are tough on steelwork. We fabricate to your drawings and specifications, with experienced welders and fabricators who know that parts need to fit first time and keep working under load, vibration and abrasion.
Laser cutting, fabrication, sandblasting and powder coating all happen in our facility, so your job stays with one team from the first cut to the final coat. That means fewer hand-offs, tighter control over quality and less time lost between suppliers.
- Built to your drawings
- Once-off & repeat runs
- Repairs & modifications
- Cut, blast & coat in-house
