February 1999

Equipment from companies, such as Alpine, Bepex and Filter Media, have been unified under the Hosokawa Micron corporate identity so SA industry no longer needs to source equipment and technology from separate overseas organisations.
Hosokawa is acknowledged internationally as a leader in powder processing and environmental control equipment. Its technologies are manufactured and marketed by subsidiaries in 32 countries so the company has an invaluable database from which to source appropriate technology from environments similar to that of South Africa.
