Our manufacturing runs 24 hours a day, and so does our quality oversight. In-process inspections are conducted at critical production intervals, with batch tracking maintained across all four locally manufactured products; bidim®, RockGrid® PC, EnviroRock® and EnviroFix®.
Production data logs allow reliable and accurate traceability and independent testing by accredited geosynthetics laboratories provide an additional, objective layer of verification, confirming that our products consistently meet or exceed published specification values, including Minimum Average Roll Values (MARVs).
Our Atlantis facility holds ISO 9001 certification (Reg. No. LS 1176), covering all manufacturing operations.
Every production run is assigned traceable references, enabling full traceability.
Product data sheets report MARV or minimum values where required, while selected index and hydraulic properties are stated as typical values from accredited laboratory testing.
Products are tested by GAI-LAP accredited laboratories, providing objective, third-party verification of product performance.
Quality checks are performed at defined intervals throughout each production run, not only at end-of-line, providing a high level of confidence in product quality. Quarterly internal auditing ensures our processes remain up to date and effective, with independent surveillance audits conducted annually.
Production staff are trained to documented procedures aligned with our quality management system and international standards.
Our manufacturing processes and products are independently assessed against recognised international and South African standards. These certifications are not administrative formalities. They are the assurance that customers, engineers and specifiers rely on when selecting geosynthetics for critical infrastructure.
Our Atlantis production facility is ISO 9001 certified (Registration No. LS 1176). This internationally recognised standard confirms that our manufacturing processes are governed by a documented quality management system, subject to regular third-party audit. For customers, it means consistent product quality, traceable production records and a supplier committed to continuous improvement.
The CE mark confirms that our products meet the regulatory, safety and performance requirements for the European market. For customers and specifiers, it provides independent assurance that products have been assessed against recognised European standards, confirming suitability for demanding infrastructure applications where compliance and traceability are non-negotiable.
Product testing is conducted by independent GAI-LAP accredited laboratories, ensuring that results are internationally credible and produced under independently audited conditions. This provides objective third-party verification of product performance, consistency and specification compliance, giving customers and specifiers the confidence that every product meets the standards required for critical infrastructure applications.
Kaytech’s manufacturing infrastructure has been built over more than five decades to support the sustained, reliable supply that civil engineering projects demand. Procurement teams and project engineers can specify Kaytech-manufactured geosynthetics with confidence, knowing the supply chain behind the product is as robust as the product itself.
All four locally manufactured products; bidim®, RockGrid® PC, EnviroRock® and EnviroFix®, are produced at our dedicated facility in Atlantis, Western Cape.
Our bidim® production operates 24/7/365, ensuring constant availability to meet peak project demand while simultaneously supporting branch stock levels.
Five branches operating nationally; Pinetown, Johannesburg, Cape Town, East London and Gqeberha, with a dedicated export division servicing the rest of Africa.
All stock is produced under our ISO 9001 quality management system, meaning that stock availability and product quality are managed together, not in isolation.
Since 1971, Kaytech has maintained an excellent supply record to the Southern African engineering market through multiple economic cycles.
