BMG entered the local hydraulics market last year with the acquisition of Goldquest International Hydraulics. This new specialist division remains incorporated as Goldquest, but will trade as BMG Hydraulics from 1 July 2009.
“The acquisition of Goldquest Hydraulics forms part of BMG’s strategic plan, which is to broaden the Group’s product offering and solutions capability in the engineering marketplace,” says Ian King, sales director of BMG – Bearing Man Group. “BMG’s solutions driven approach to engineering encompasses a project management and consulting facility that integrates different technologies, from hydraulics and pneumatics, to electronics and information technology.
“BMG Hydraulics, headed by managing director, Greg Lester, combines quality branded components, hydraulic engineering and contamination control, as well as a test and repair service, to ensure optimum performance and extended service life of a customer’s hydraulic systems.

Products available from BMG Hydraulics include variable and fixed displacement pumps, industrial and mobile valves, accumulators, low- and high-speed motors, as well as cylinders.
