PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
The Chryso Southern Africa Group has
established a distributor network and
distribution outlets across the African
continent and Indian Ocean Islands for its
market leading concrete and cement admixtures
and ancillary products.
Chryso South Africa supplies a vast range
of products to the readymix, precast, mining,
cement and construction industries that are
produced at three of its manufacturing facil-
ities operating in Johannesburg, Cape Town
and Durban. The company is also the exclu-
sive distributor of Lanxess pigments for the
construction industry in South Africa. With the
capability to service roughly 80% of the African
continent, Chryso products are readily available
and can be transported to customers using the
most appropriate mode of transport, road, air
or sea freight.
Chryso Southern Africa has amassed an
extensive reference base of projects, with
product supplied into Africa for more than
15 years, through close partnerships with its
customers. This is achieved through the compa-
ny’s ability to assess each project on its own
merit and then recommend a fit-for-application
solution that takes into account all aspects such
as climatic conditions, raw materials (including
aggregates and cement), the time allocated for
the project schedule and any other relevant
factors that may affect the timeous completion
of the contract.
In addition to its own experienced technical
team Chryso Southern Africa also has access
to extensive global research and development
facilities. An in-house laboratory in Johannes-
burg, where specialised mix designs are tested
to determine the most appropriate solution for
each project, is complemented by alliances with
a number of concrete laboratories in various
African countries.
Chryso Southern Africa is becoming the
Chryso springboard into the African conti-
nent and Bauma will provide the company
with the opportunity to showcase its cap-
abilities and extensive range products to the
African market.
