With a workforce of more than 3,500 employees, the Safal Group remains committed to innovation, sustainability, and community development, continually investing in modern technology and eco-friendly production methods to meet the diverse needs of the African construction industry.
In 2003, the group’s various operating companies were consolidated under the holding company Safal Investments Mauritius Limited, unifying its diverse operations. The Safal Group’s product portfolio includes cold rolled, galvanized, aluminium-zinc coated, and pre-painted steel coils, all manufactured to international standards in state-of-the-art facilities located in Kenya, Tanzania, and South Africa. These materials are transformed into proprietary building products such as sheeting, cladding systems, light steel trusses, and complete steel buildings, all designed and manufactured in Africa to meet world-class performance standards.
A significant milestone in the group’s history was the establishment of Safal Steel in 2008. This subsidiary introduced advanced technologies, including the Zincal® coating—a combination of zinc and aluminum that provides superior corrosion resistance for steel products. Safal Steel’s commitment to innovation and quality has solidified the group’s reputation as a leading player in the African steel manufacturing industry.

To complement its roofing brands, specialist products have been developed by the Safal Group – such as fastener products, steel pipes and hollow sections, and other value-added accessories for the building industry.

The Group also supports innovators who serve as role models for community upliftment.
