CLOSE CONSULTANTS have provided structural and civil design capabilities on a diverse range of industrial projects; these include steelworks, concrete plants, aluminium smelters, industrial garnet plants, power stations and associated coal handling facilities, large industrial baghouses and boiler houses for power generation. In addition to working on the design and development of major industrial plants and infrastructure the company has also expertise in the structural design of various mechanical components and equipment, including fork lift attachments, various lift devices, storage and racking systems, mobile and fixed plant and equipment for the mining sector.

The company also developed and patented an inline quick release skirting  system for belt conveyors. The product was manufactured and distributed under the associated company BRIMCO SYSTEMS until the world-wide rights to the patent were sold to a large US manufacturing company.

The company has also had a joint venture partnerships with Binder & Co of Austria  and Eurosilo of the Netherlands.

Close Consultants can provide in-depth knowledge and expertise to the project team together with the latest design and drawings software tools.
