TECHNICAL
QUESTIONS.
What does BasaltechSA supply?
BasaltechSA supplies 50 × 50 mm basalt mesh geogrid and chopped basalt fibre for construction and infrastructure applications in South Africa.
Where is BasaltechSA based?
BasaltechSA operates from Gauteng and Limpopo, serving projects throughout South Africa. Contact the team to confirm availability, delivery arrangements and lead times for your location.
Which product is right for my project?
Mesh is installed as a continuous grid within a pavement system. Chopped fibre is added to a concrete or asphalt mix. The application, design and performance requirements determine which product is suitable.
How do I get specifications or a quotation?
Contact Johan or Ronnie with the application, project location, quantity and programme. Request the current product data, relevant test information and installation or mixing guidance for your project.
