Experience the MixRite advantage
About 20 years ago, we asked ourselves why farmers and horticulturalists were not automating the dosing of fertilisers, minerals, vitamins, vaccinations, medications and other additives via water systems. Soon we realised it was due to the cost and durability of the available hydraulic metering pumps, and to the availability of parts and personalised, professional technical support.
With this in mind, we established MixRite NZ in 2005. MixRite proportional injectors and dosing pumps provide a high-quality, well-priced and easily serviced Dosatron alternative in New Zealand.
MixRite improving efficiency
Having been used effectively in over a hundred countries for decades, our hydraulic metering pumps are proven, so we know we can make a difference. When compared to Dosatron or other available metering pumps, MixRite pumps are a smart choice.
