Integrated engineering solutions at Electra Mining 2026
BMG will participate in Electra Mining Africa 2026 (stands J10, J12 and K17) once again presenting its extensive engineering solutions and technical services that have been refined over more than five decades. The exhibition, which runs from 7 to 11 September 2026 at the Johannesburg Expo Centre, is recognised as one of the continent’s most significant platforms for the mining, industrial, electrical and power generation sectors.
BMG has a long history of exhibiting at Electra Mining, as the company reinforces its leading role in Southern Africa’s mining and industrial sectors. The BMG team understands the importance of this show to demonstrate product innovation, technical solutions and service integration, while strengthening partnerships with global and local suppliers and customers.
At the 2026 event, BMG will again highlight its position as a complete process solutions provider, giving customers access to quality branded engineering components, technical expertise and support through a single point of supply. This integrated approach is designed to reduce production costs, improve plant efficiencies and ensure reliability across diverse operations.
According to Darryn Wright, Group Marketing Executive, BMG plays a critical role in industrial and mining processes across the region. “We provide design and equipment selection services to project houses, supply to OEMs and offer technical support to our broad customer base. Our long-standing partnerships with leading international manufacturers allow us to deliver the latest technology and customised solutions to meet exact requirements.
“There is a growing emphasis on safety compliance, energy efficiency and sustainable operation in all the industries we serve.

Electra Mining is an important platform for BMG to demonstrate how our integrated solutions deliver measurable improvements in these critical areas.”
The company’s stand will feature the latest products from its key specialist divisions: Bearings, Seals and Gaskets, Power Transmission, Drives and Motors, Materials Handling, Tools and Fasteners, Hydraulics, Filtration, Lubrication and Field Services. By specifying the correct components and systems, BMG enables operators to enhance machine performance, increase reliability and extend service life, with benefits for productivity and cost management.
BMG will be launching the new Danfoss iC7-Automation Variable Speed Drive (VSD) enclosed range at the show, marking the local introduction of a drive platform, designed by Danfoss specifically to be intelligent, versatile, future-proof and reliable.
BMG and Danfoss Drives have enjoyed over a decade of close collaboration since signing a strategic alliance agreement in 2015. This formal partnership arrangement strengthened BMG’s original distribution agreement for Danfoss VSDs and the soft starter range, which has been in place since 2007. Visitors to BMG’s stands at the show will have the opportunity to see new Danfoss iC7-Automation equipment first hand and discuss in detail with BMG and Danfoss local VSD technical specialists, how the product’s design requirements (intelligent, versatile, future-proof and reliable) distinguish it from other systems.
BMG’s services extend beyond the mining and quarrying industries. The team also works closely with customers in agriculture, food and beverage plants, water and wastewater treatment, oil and gas, petrochemicals, construction and general engineering. Growth opportunities are also being developed in renewable energy and logistics, where BMG is supporting wind and solar projects, as well as providing drive and materials handling solutions for warehousing and distribution facilities. These expansions reflect wider industry shifts towards diversified energy sources and more efficient supply chains.
On-site support is central to BMG’s service offering. Mobile technicians provide breakdown response and routine maintenance services, conduct troubleshooting and recommend productivity improvements. A 24-hour process support system ensures reliability-centred maintenance strategies to ensure continuous plant operation.
