A $2 Millions Saving in Namibia – Thanks to an MB Crusher Bucket
“When we told the client we’d finish in just seven days, they didn’t believe us. In the end, they thanked us with a bonus. We saved them almost $2 millions – all thanks to the MB Crusher BF90.3 crusher bucket.”
That’s Mr Ashwell speaking, head of Oshintenda Business Group in Namibia – a seasoned contractor with years of experience across African job sites. His company operates all over the country, from the southern border to the far north. Each site brings different challenges: hard rock, granite, compact sand. But one need is always the same – tough, practical, self-sufficient solutions.
That’s where MB Crusher comes in.

The Project: Cut Costs. Save Time.
The standout job? A client in Namibia needed around 1.000 tonnes of material crushed. Sounds doable – until you factor in traditional equipment.
“With large mobile crushers, just getting the machine to site would’ve cost more than the entire job. And for what? Two days of work!”
Let’s break it down:
- NAD 1.2 million just to transport and set up a big mobile crusher;
- Add costs for water, power, safety, and logistics;
- Plus long setup times: at least a week to get started, then two more days to actually crush.

The MB Crusher Solution: One Attachment, One Excavator, Seven Days
“We told our customer, ‘We’ll handle it all in seven days – from transport to crushing.’ He didn’t believe us. He watched us work all week, and when we finished, he paid us straight away. He was thrilled.”
Ashwell’s alternative? Use the MB Crusher BF90.3 crusher bucket right on site, mounted on an excavator. The client was sceptical at first. But once they saw it in action…
- Total cost: NAD 150,000 – just a fraction of the traditional approach;
- Job completed in seven days, including logistics and processing;
- No need for complicated setups – just dig, crush, and load;
- Crushed material loaded directly onto trucks – no double handling.
The result? Over NAD 2 million saved. The client was so impressed, they even gave the crew a bonus.
“With the BF90.3, we skip the middle steps: dig, crush, load. No extra trucks, no delays, no waste.”

Built for Africa: MB Crusher on the Toughest Jobs
Ashwell’s been using MB Crusher for over a decade. Alongside the BF90.3, he also relies on the MB screening bucket – crucial for preparing export-grade materials. Case in point: 500 one-tonne sample bags of copper, screened on-site and loaded non-stop.
“In Namibia, we often work in remote areas – sometimes with no phone signal – and fuel can cost up to NAD 21 per litre. MB Crusher tools let us work safely, save fuel, and save time. And they’re nearly indestructible. We’re still using the same crusher bucket from ten years ago. We’ve only replaced a few worn parts – it’s still running at 100%. Like an old Toyota – it just won’t quit.”
“With MB Crusher, you save because you only need one machine. No generators, no pumps, no conveyor belts. Everything’s integrated – and it works anywhere.”
