How they developed the range …
“Portamix developed the worlds first mobile mixing station in Wellington NZ, during the late 90’s when it became apparent that there was a specific need for the floor coatings industry. The development was spearheaded by Miles Suckling, who’s market knowledge and experience in the construction tools industry gave him a head start into what is now a global market.
Portamix global is a family owned business, now based in Masterton, NZ and committed to provide floor coating applicators the means to increase their profitability. We do this by supplying mixing equipment for self-leveling floor coatings. Portamix is the worlds most innovative mix-and-pour system, engineered to gain the most out of time and materials.

Special Air Projects
Due to our knowledge of compressed air systems and 4 way manifolds, we do many special compressed air projects. With our in house engineering department we love to solve a problem.
A client was struggling to effectively use multiple pneumatic machines on their previous 4 way manifolds.
We found that their compressor was producing enough compressed air, but their manifold was creating a ‘bottleneck’ effect on the airflow. So we designed them these sleek large and small 4 way manifolds, solving the restriction of air flow. The company is now able to proceed with the task with no downtime due to air flow restriction.
Have a project you need help with give us a call.
