If your tyres and wheels stop, your production stops – and that’s exactly where OTR - Tyres Wheels Axles fits into the picture at Fortescue’s Iron Bridge Magnetite Project.

 

Proudly Australian-owned and Australian-based, OTR - Tyres Wheels Axles is run by people who’ve spent decades in the WA mining tyre game. The business now delivers a complete “ground contact” package – OTR tyres, wheels, rims and axles – all specified, supported and serviced for tough Australian conditions and demanding haul profiles.

 

For Iron Bridge and other major iron ore operations, OTR - Tyres Wheels Axles focuses on the things that really matter on site:

  • The right tyre and wheel selection, backed by haul profile studies.
  • Safety and compliance, with inspections, repairs and certification to Australian Standards.
  • Fast, local support, helping to reduce failures, cut downtime and keep trucks moving.

 

The long-standing relationship with Fortescue reflects a straightforward value proposition: reliable, safe performance that supports high production targets in remote, high-temperature environments.

 

While OTR - Tyres Wheels Axles roots are firmly in Australia, its capability is not confined by borders. With integrated product, engineering and service expertise under one roof, the company is well placed to support projects beyond Australia, including growth markets such as Africa and other mining regions that demand the same blend of reliability, safety and practical, on-the-ground know-how.

 

From the Pilbara to projects abroad, OTR - Tyres Wheels Axles is ready to keep heavy fleets rolling – safely, efficiently and profitably – on solid Australian expertise.

On most mornings at Bibiani, the first hint that the mine is fully awake isn’t the light—it’s the sound. Haul trucks grind up the benches of the Main pit in low gear, engines working hard against the slope. The refurbished plant on the hill hums steadily. Just behind it, a new sulphide circuit—tanks, towers and steel—crowds into every metre of flat ground the engineers could find.


Ultra-high performance concrete has been in labs and specialty projects for three decades. What’s different now is where it’s turning up: on aging viaducts in Switzerland, a busy interstate crossing between Delaware and New Jersey, county bridges in Iowa and New Mexico, and a 100% UHPC superstructure in Michigan. Together, those projects show why many bridge owners now see UHPC as a practical tool for extending deck life—not just a science project.


Stand on the departures level of a new terminal, or in the atrium of a major hospital, and the engineering story usually points your eyes up to the roof. But for project directors and CFOs, one of the most important decisions sits under their feet: the floor slab.


 
As AI workloads explode, the world’s largest tech companies are no longer just grid customers—they are becoming power marketers, anchor tenants for multi-gigawatt generation, and, in some cases, de-facto utilities. For infrastructure CEOs, this isn’t a side story in Silicon Valley. It’s a structural shift in how generation, transmission and capital will be deployed over the next decade.

From social media to power marketing


Just before dawn in Western Australia’s Pilbara, more than a hundred 250-tonne haul trucks wake up with no one climbing a ladder. From a control room hundreds of kilometres away in Perth, a handful of supervisors watch icons move across a digital pit map as driverless trucks roll out, talk to each other over private LTE and begin shifting millions of tonnes of iron ore.

Scenes like this were a curiosity in 2008. Today, they are becoming routine – and they are quietly rewriting how mines are designed, powered and built.
