Javelin is a diverse bulk liquid tanker transport and logistics operation, transporting a range of products from non-hazardous edible oils to highly flammable petrochemicals, with LPG and dry bulk being the only exceptions, however, Javelin has experience in both. The company has a tanker fleet capable of meeting today’s standards for safety and environmental responsibility.

 Javelin’s was the first tanker transport company in Africa, and only the fourth transport company in South Africa to be awarded ISO 14001 status in 2001.

Customer orders are processed by a team of dedicated and appropriately trained fleet controllers from the companies operations centre in Prospecton, Durban. An in-house scheduling system was developed to assist and is constantly being modified and upgraded to meet specific requirements. We are in cellular and satellite contact with our drivers and our Operations offices are manned 24 hours a day.

Currently Javelin operates a fleet of 68 own truck tractors and over 190 semi-pup trailer combinations, and a further 25 dedicated subcontractor vehicles are at its disposal. Truck Tractors are on average two and a half years old, and are replaced at 800 000 kilometres
