What Our Clients Say

Trusted by Partners Worldwide

At Duratray International, we take pride in delivering exceptional solutions and building lasting relationships with our clients. Hear from our partners and customers who have experienced the quality, innovation, and reliability that define our services.

"Since fitting the Duratray SDB to our fleet, we’ve seen a remarkable improvement in our haul cycles. The significant reduction in carryback has allowed us to move more material with fewer trips, directly improving our daily output. It’s an operational upgrade that delivers on its promise."

Operations Manager, Western Australia

"What sets Duratray apart is not just the quality of their products but the reliability of their field services team. Their technicians were on site promptly and provided outstanding support during installation and after-sales service. It’s a level of responsiveness that’s rare in this industry."

Maintenance Superintendent, Chile

"The Duratray SDB has proven to be a commercially sound investment for our mine. Reduced maintenance, longer service life, and improved payloads have translated into measurable cost savings across our operations. The tray paid for itself far quicker than we anticipated."
