Local context

Working in Mkondeni

We service Mkondeni Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Mkondeni, Pietermaritzburg, with access off the N3 and R56. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.

Controlled-atmosphere rooms held for 4–9 months CA gas-tightness failure ends long-term storage
