What to know locally in Richards Bay
Store copy paper in an air conditioned room if you can: in a humid Richards Bay summer an open ream curls within days.

Richards Bay: the offices, the volumes and the dealers
Richards Bay is a working port town. The deep water harbour, the bulk coal terminal, an aluminium smelter, mineral sands mining and the timber and chemical plants around Alton keep a large number of engineering, logistics and contractor offices busy with permits, safety files, drawings and shipping documents. Many of those offices need A3 for plans and print a lot of mono. Conditions are hard on machines: humid heat for much of the year, salt air from the bay, and fine dust from bulk handling and the industrial areas that settles in fans and on the scanner glass. Dealers and technicians work from the CBD, Alton and nearby Empangeni, and some larger contracts are run from Durban, roughly two hours down the N2.
Typical laminating machines requests in the area come from:
- Factories, mines and warehouses: thick laminated safety cards and work instructions for factory floors
- Schools, colleges and universities: an A3 laminator in the staff room for charts, flash cards and timetables
- Corporate and head offices: an A3 laminator in the copy room for safety notices and floor plans
