Handling and maintenance of large earthmoving tyre assemblies is the second most significant source of fatal events in surface mining.

“7 days of intense learning provided by the company’s team KLINGE, performing a fantastic job of auditing BMSA Tire Maintenance. Very happy to be part of this survey and very motivated to do things differently and improve our processes more and more. ”
“KLINGE is a supportive and ethical partner… Their technician’s attitude towards tyre safety and service quality of work, especially for underground tyre works, is exceptional.”
“120% KLINGE should be the way to go! Some others try to do the same but they’re not as good as KLINGE (by far), especially the lead trainer, Roy. Nor do they have the same passion that is transferred to the student.”
“In my opinion, the training I received when I worked for KLINGE would have to be the best in Australia, and I still change OTR and cleaning components as I did in my training.”
“Great class delivered by great people. Roy, the lead trainer at KLINGE, is the best trainer in the business!”
“Got to oversee and be with an amazing group of guys last week at KLINGE for TIA level 200 training. I personally took the class 14 years ago and it was a game changer in my career…”
“I have to say Klinge provides the most experienced and professional training available! It is a great investment for your company as well as the trainee.”
“KLINGE trainers and consultants always give unbiased technical support and have a sound employee skills strategy. The KLINGE representatives are polite, informative, well-groomed and always assist and contribute positively.”
