“We’ve been very impressed with the design, durability and innovation of GRW Engineering’s tankers and components. When you consider that there is a constant temperature fluctuation that can cause metal fatigue, GRW Engineering have got it just right and we expect to continue getting 13 to 15 years’ service from these tankers.”

“Our relationship with the company has developed over time, but they have listened to what our needs are and their tankers fit our application perfectly. With the fuel companies now being so strict, our new equipment from GRW Engineering, coupled with intense safety training we give our drivers, gives us the confidence of going forward sustainably and profitably.”

“We as a company place such a high premium on health, safety and taking care of the environment that our main concern has and remains the quality of the workmanship our suppliers put into their products. GRW Engineering does this so well that the price of their products almost plays a secondary role in our decision making and purchasing.”

“My father was adamant that to successfully transport the type of hazardous cargoes we specialise in and grow the business, we had to have the right equipment so as to not compromise the environment we live and work in. That is why he established a solid working relationship with GRW Engineering
of Worcester in the Western Cape, many years ago, to supply us with the bulk of our road tankers in both stainless steel and aluminium…We’ve grown with GRW Engineering over the years but their successes have been our successes as our company has been officially accredited by the leading fuel and chemical companies in South Africa to be totally compliant in terms of health, safety and care of the environment.”

“While we were always pleased with TEE’s quality, especially on their auger tankers, we’re doubly pleased to note the high quality standards that GRW Engineering has brought to the party,” Nico says.“We now own eight GRW-built auger bulk tankers in our fleet of 76 that serve our prill market and with constant improvements to the tankers, our fleet of these excellent workhorses is bound to grow.”

“We were immensely pleased with our purchase as GRW Engineering’s excellent workmanship in manufacture was clearly evident. Coupled to this was the high level of service we received and still do.”

“GRW Engineering impressed us with their design of an ‘electric blanket’ around our pitch and tar tankers, which maintains these loads at temperatures as specified by our clients…We find that our tankers generally outlast the mechanical horses and the tankers will only be replaced before their planned trade-in if they come equipped with new technology for loading and unloading. GRW Engineering have however done their homework and really take care of us in terms of quick response times and excellent parts availability, despite being a long way from us in Worcester.”

“We’ve known Gerhard van der Merwe for a long time and had taken critical looks at tankers his company had built for other transporters. Apart from quality in design and workmanship, GRW Engineering has gone to its customers and listened to what their needs were - that is the difference…In our business, every additional litre or cubic centimeter we can legally load, impacts positively on our bottom line and for this, we have to thank the clever chaps at GRW Engineering.”

“We had come to notice that GRW Engineering had fast established themselves as market leaders in the tanker industry, not only in South Africa but abroad as well. We thought that as they were the only local manufacturers to build a fully ADR specified vehicle, which slots in with our thinking on safety, this was the way to go.

“We’ve also seen that GRW Engineering’s design teams are all made up of engineers who ensure that high integrity and excellent workmanship is applied during all stages of the manufacturing process.”

“We had built up a wonderful relationship with TEE over the years and I must mention the name of John Larsen, now the Technical Manager of GRW Engineering’s Gauteng

Division. John and his team were always prepared to listen to us and act on suggestions that we gave them…This new design in the bulk feed tankers really works for us as, apart from the added payload we get, we can carry a better variety of feed as there are now more compartments in the tank. The aluminium tanks allow us to carry about three additional tonnes per load which has a positive effect on our bottom line.”

"As a rental company we have to buy the tankers which we know our customers will be happy with and which we know will withstand the demands made of them.  Our GRW tankers fit the bill - and our customers tell us." "Having seen the GRW operation and met the team, I now know why GRW has built such an excellent reputation as tanker manufacturers - attention to detail in planning and construction applied to a first class product design, with no compromises with quality"

Tim Heaton
Managing Director
Haartz Tanker Rental Ltd. (United Kingdom)

The detail and quality of the quotes are more than adequate to make the required decision. It is a pleasure to work with professionals, who listen to what you want, understand your requirements, produce quality products and deliver them on time. GRW has built a reputation based on, “technology and delivery on time”
