Printing in Rustenburg
Platinum is the reason Rustenburg grew so fast, and the mines on the platinum belt remain the biggest print buyers in the area. Shafts and concentrators around Marikana, Kroondal, Mooinooi and Boitekong need safety signs, induction material and branded PPE, and the many contractors and suppliers serving them want company profiles, vehicle decals and workwear of their own. The Royal Bafokeng area around Phokeng adds sport, culture and community events, and the Magaliesberg brings tourism and weddings. Print shops sit in the CBD, around the big malls and in the light industrial areas, with sign makers and embroiderers close to the mines. Hot summers, strong UV and dust from the mine dumps shorten the life of outdoor print.
