Did you know upgrading your underground equipment can cut harmful emissions by 85 percent while boosting performance?

We just completed our 12th Predator overhaul for a valued Queensland customer and the results speak for themselves. The Predator platform allows our clients to use their OpEx budgets to transform aging machinery into like-new condition.

Here is what upgrading to our MWM engine package delivers:
✅ Greater engine torque and improved acceleration to reduce travel times
✅ An 85 percent drop in Diesel Particulate Matter, significantly improving underground air quality and reducing workforce emissions exposure
✅ A complete machine overhaul that minimises future lifecycle maintenance costs

The momentum does not stop here. We are already kicking off the 13th overhaul for this great partner with over 50 total Predator units in the field.

Want to see how a Predator overhaul can maximise your operational budget and improve site safety? Reach out to our team today to learn more.

At Cougar, 'all hands on deck' isn't just a catchphrase—it’s exactly how we operate.

When order volumes surged last week, our corporate supply chain team didn't hesitate. They stepped away from their desks and onto the floor to help our incredible store staff pick, pack and ship orders to our customers.

We strongly believe that no task is too small when it comes to delivering great customer service. Rolling up our sleeves to support each other reinforces the shared purpose that drives everything we do. We are one team with one mission, and we are incredibly appreciative of everyone who pitched in to make the week a success.
