Welkom notes on supplies & equipment
Mine offices and businesses rent multifunction copiers on per-click contracts, so compare minimum billing and service response times. Schools and offices buy A4 paper by the box and toner by the cartridge code. Mine dust causes printer faults, so ask repairers about regular servicing and whether the call-out fee covers Odendaalsrus, Virginia and Hennenman, and whether the parts are original or compatible.
Printing in Welkom
Welkom was laid out as the planned heart of the Free State goldfields, and the deep mines around it are still a large source of print work. Shafts and contractors need safety signs, induction booklets, permit books, reflective decals and embroidered workwear, while the mine hostels and townships of Thabong and Odendaalsrus bring funerals, churches, soccer clubs and stokvels. The wide maize and sunflower farming region around the goldfields adds co-operatives, auctions and agricultural shows, and the motor racing circuit outside town brings big events. Print shops are spread through the CBD and the shopping areas near the town's many traffic circles, with sign makers in the industrial area. Couriers from Johannesburg take a day or so. Hot summers and hail wear signs.
Typical printer paper requests in the area come from:
- Designers, agencies and resellers: A4 and A3 copy paper for a print shop's copiers and quick print counter
- Government and municipalities: copy paper delivered against an RFQ to municipal and department offices
- Small businesses and start-ups: a box of copy paper a month for quotes, invoices and flyers on the office printer
