WA Mining, formally the WA Mining Conference and Exhibition, is returning to Perth on 8–9 October 2025, transforming the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre into an epicentre for the state’s mining industry. This two-day event brings together mining companies, technology innovators, service providers, and government representatives for targeted networking, product showcases, and conference sessions.
With a carefully curated paid conference program alongside a dynamic exhibition floor, WA Mining is where engineers, technical managers, and procurement teams come to explore industry advancements, sustainable practices, and future trends. For Perth-based Dynapumps, the event presents an ideal platform to showcase how engineered pump solutions can enhance performance, reliability, and efficiency in WA’s demanding conditions.
Billy Prinsloo, Business Development Manager – ERA 3 Solutions at Dynapumps, said the exhibition is about far more than products.
“We are using WA Mining to explain what we call ERA Three, which stands for Engineered solutions, Reliability, and Aftermarket support,” Prinsloo said. “The expo gives us a chance to show end users how we are evolving into a solutions-based partner, not just a supplier of pumps.”
A showcase of engineered partnerships
Dynapumps has a long history in Australia’s mining sector, with pump systems deployed across iron ore, gold, nickel and lithium sites. The company partners with international and domestic brands, such as Hydra-Cell, Grundfos, and Southern Cross, to tailor solutions to each mine’s specific needs rather than supply one-size-fits-all systems.
“We look at the data sheets, engage with the site engineers, and provide a pump system that will last in those conditions,” Prinsloo said. “If the original design no longer fits reality, we engineer a solution to extend mean time between failure and reduce costs.”
Local presence, faster solutions
Industry events like WA Mining Expo play a vital role in bringing together suppliers and operators from across Western Australia into one central hub. For local companies, showing up is an important signal of commitment to the state’s mining sector and an opportunity to connect directly with end users. With long lead times for critical parts, often stretching 14 to 16 weeks, WA operators are increasingly looking for suppliers who can provide solutions quickly and reliably.
“Many clients now prefer to source locally wherever possible. We hold stock for particular customers we partner with, which cuts lead times and ensures continuity of supply,” Prinsloo said.
For companies like Dynapumps, being visible at WA Mining Expo means demonstrating not only technical expertise but also readiness to support the state’s industry in real time. The event attracts talent, ideas and decision-makers from across WA, making it a place where local presence, long-term partnerships and responsive solutions can come together.
Sustainability in focus
Sustainability is a recurring theme at WA Mining Expo, reflecting the pressure on miners to lower emissions, conserve water and deploy more efficient technologies. Dynapumps’ approach to energy efficiency and total cost of ownership ties directly into this conversation, with onsite audits, fire system upgrades and predictive maintenance programs all designed to improve performance while reducing lifecycle costs.
Billy Prinsloo, National Sales Manager at Dynapumps, said many clients now see long-term value as more important than the lowest upfront price. “We do not see it as just selling a pump. We look at the total cost of ownership. A slightly higher upfront investment often saves money through reduced maintenance, lower downtime and better energy efficiency,” he said.
This is particularly relevant to WA Mining Expo because the event attracts operators and engineers from across the state who are under constant pressure to manage costs, improve efficiency and plan for the long term. By demonstrating how engineered solutions reduce downtime and energy use, Dynapumps can show visiting decision-makers how sustainability and reliability go hand in hand.
Supporting this approach is Dynapumps’ integrated capability at its Perth head office, where in-house fabrication, electrical design and testing facilities allow the company to deliver complete pump packages. Systems are fabricated, engineered and tested at up to 350 kilowatts before dispatch, providing upfront assurance that reduces installation risk and rework, particularly at remote WA sites. For attendees of WA Mining Expo, this local capability illustrates how WA-based suppliers can provide end-to-end solutions that keep projects on track and resilient against the challenges of distance and supply chains.
Dynapumps’ debut and future focus
WA Mining has quickly become a cornerstone of the state’s mining calendar, attracting thousands of attendees and providing access to leading technology, industry insights, and strategic networking opportunities. While Dynapumps has previously exhibited at mining events in Queensland and oil and gas shows in WA, this marks its first participation at WA Mining. Prinsloo said this decision reflects a commitment to deeper engagement with Western Australia’s mining sector.
“Our main purpose is to show WA miners that we are here, that we are a solutions partner, and that we are aligned with some of the world’s best pump brands,” he said. “This event gives us a platform to meet more end users and demonstrate the value of working with us.”
The stand will also highlight the company’s quality and safety credentials, including ISO certifications in quality management, environment and occupational health and safety, as well as its adoption of Toyota’s TSSC continuous improvement program. By showcasing these strengths alongside its engineering partnerships, Dynapumps aims to reinforce its position as a long-term partner for WA mining.
For the wider industry, the expo is the ideal venue to explore how suppliers and technology providers are adapting to the evolving challenges of mining. For Prinsloo, it represents the opportunity to demonstrate how an engineering-led, solutions-driven approach to pump systems can deliver measurable improvements in uptime, reliability, efficiency, and sustainability.
“Every mine has its own problems, and our role is to engineer the right solution for those specific conditions,” Prinsloo said. “The expo is the perfect place to show how we can deliver that.”
