A civil contractor in the Himalayan hills cuts labour needs by 90% and transforms site efficiency using MB Crusher attachments
Sikkim, India– “I completed over 20 kilometres of roadwork with just one machine and one operator,” says BS Tamang, civil contractor and owner of Buddha Traders & Company. In the mountainous region of South Sikkim, where infrastructure development is often slowed by remote access and labour shortages, Tamang has redefined efficiency using cutting-edge attachments from MB Crusher.
When the COVID-19 pandemic caused severe disruptions in labour availability and construction timelines, Tamang began searching for smarter solutions. After watching a YouTube video on MB Crusher, he reached out for more information. Within a week, MB’s local team was on-site in Katang, helping him install the first unit and providing direct training.
Today, his operations rely on three MB Crusher attachments: the BF60.1 and BF70.2 jaw crusher buckets and the MB-S14 screening bucket. These tools allow him to crush, load, and screen material directly at the site, eliminating the need for extra machines, long-distance hauling, or large crews.
“I used to depend on a 120 TPH stationary crusher,”Tamang explains. “But MB Crusher works right where the road begins—no feeding, no shifting, no delays.”
Thanks to these plug-and-play hydraulic tools, Tamang reduced his team from twelve workers to just one operator without compromising productivity. On average, he manages six to seven truckloads per day of 50–60mm crushed stone, using riverbed materials sourced locally. The investment paid off quickly, with full return on investment in under a year.
But the impact went beyond cost savings. Tamang praises the flexibility, simplicity, and ongoing technical support MB Crusher offers. “Even two years later, their team is still in touch. That kind of after-sales support really makes a difference.”
The BF Series jaw crusher buckets allow contractors to process materials on-site, reducing transport and reprocessing needs. The BF60.1 is a compact, lightweight solution ideal for remote terrain, while the BF70.2 offers higher capacity for road construction and general works. The MB-S14 screening bucket efficiently separates finer material for reuse, making it an excellent choice for riverbed and pre-quarry operations.
Together, these attachments have allowed Tamang to take full control of his projects—no waiting on outsourced crushing, no idle machines, and no logistical headaches.
He now recommends MB Crusher to other contractors in the region and has even demonstrated his setup to potential buyers. “If it works here in Sikkim, it’ll work anywhere.”
This success story showcases MB Crusher’s growing role in rural infrastructure development across India, especially in remote or logistically challenging areas. For contractors seeking to reduce labour dependency and increase site autonomy, MB Crusher offers a tested and proven path forward.
