How Tip Trans Powers Progress: A Look Inside Our Supply, Transport & Delivery Value Chain

From mine to site, field to fleet: how our fully integrated operations support construction, civils, and agriculture across the Western and Southern Cape.


A thriving economy depends on the momentum of industries that are active, future-focused, and geared for growth. At Tip Trans, we play a vital role in this movement.

Through our three specialised and interconnected companies, we deliver essential bulk materials, sourced, transported, and distributed, to the civils, construction, and agricultural sectors across the Western and Southern Cape.

When your project succeeds, so do we. That’s why our value chain is designed to support progress at every stage.

Three divisions: One powerful network

  1. Lime Sales Ltd

Supplying high-quality dolomitic material for agriculture and construction.

Since 1988, Lime Sales has focused exclusively on mining and crushing dolomitic limestone. As a dedicated dolomite mine, we supply crushed metallurgical dolomite and agricultural lime, critical components in soil conditioning, road layer works, and infrastructure development.


With over 3 million tons delivered to date, Lime Sales remains the cornerstone of our material supply chain, offering dependable volume, consistent grading, and material that meets stringent industry standards.

  1. Tip Trans Resources

Sourcing quality, screened sand from the Kromrivier mine.

Operating from Klipheuwel, Tip Trans Resources specialises in the supply of screened coarse sand for the civils and construction sectors. Sourced directly from our Kromrivier mine near Klipheuwel, our screened sand meets the specific requirements of construction sites, roadworks, and infrastructure development across the region.

Our streamlined operation ensures consistent quality and availability where and when it’s needed most.

  1. Tip Trans Logistix


Customised bulk transport and supply solutions.

As the logistics arm of the Tip Trans Group, Tip Trans Logistix is responsible for both sourcing and transporting bulk materials. Our independently operated fleet, ranging from 14 to 34-ton combinations, includes walking floors, back tippers, side tippers, flat decks, and other specialised vehicles. 

With a deep understanding of the industries we serve, we ensure that every delivery is optimised for timing, load size, and site conditions, saving our clients time and cost at every turn.

How our value chain works

  1. Lime Sales mines and crushes dolomitic limestone
  2. Tip Trans Resources sources and supplies high-quality screened sand
  3. Tip Trans Logistix transports and delivers bulk materials with precision

The result? A streamlined, reliable system built for speed, scale, and success.
