Our story

A constant focus since day one.

Stainless Tech was started in 2000 by Willem Strydom, who still leads the business as Managing Director. From the beginning, our key focus has remained the same: providing the finest quality product and service delivery to the sectors we work in.

What started as a Stellenbosch fabrication operation has grown into a business that designs, manufactures and installs its own equipment. Today that means a catalogue of 31 hygienic cleaning products alone, alongside processing equipment, hygiene equipment, material handling stainless work.

That growth has stayed close to the workshop floor. All manufacturing happens in-house, which is how we keep quality consistent from a single custom part to a complete installation.

Our vision
“Always building and improving on a reputation for excellence with our customers, by pursuing leading market quality supply and services in everything we do.”

Stainless Tech draws on its experience in metal product manufacturing and distribution to meet industry standards, with a forward thinking, customer focused approach.

How we work

Design, manufacturing and installation, by one team.

Design. We start from your specification, whether that's an exact drawing or a rough idea, and work out what needs to be built for your site. Standard sizes are a starting point, and custom sizing is normal rather than an exception.

Manufacture. Our workshop cuts, bends, welds and finishes in 304 or 316 stainless steel, as well as mild steel and other metals. Our manufacturing processes include a Maxphotonics Theo MA-1 laser welding unit, supplied by Factorysmart.

Install. Our own team installs what our workshop builds, including complete turnkey projects such as dairy lines and open plant cleaning systems, sized wash point by wash point to the building they go into.

Industries we work in

Built for demanding environments.

Our catalogue spans the food industry and well beyond it. Each area below links to the products we build for it.

Food processing & hygiene

Foaming, rinsing and sanitizing systems, hand wash basins, boot washers, PPE equipment and drainage built around the hygiene standards a production floor is held to.

Hygienic Cleaning Systems

Dairy

Flow plates, holding tubes, mixing tanks and complete turnkey dairy projects, including the platforms and access stairs around the equipment.

Dairy Equipment

Poultry

Equipment from the hatchery to the processing line: chick carousels, scalding tanks, spin chillers, portion saws and overhead line parts.

Poultry Equipment

Material handling

Crate and bucket washers, belt, roller and slat belt conveyors, augers, tables and trolleys for moving and handling product.

Crate Washers

Wine

Mash coolers for the wine industry, along with holding tanks, tank stands and general site fabrication.

General Fabrication

Greenhouse, pharmaceutical & pet care

Foam cleaning is no longer only for the food industry. The same foaming and sanitizing equipment is used in greenhouse cultivation, the pharmaceutical sector and pet care.

Beyond the factory floor

The same standard, whatever the scale.

Not everything we build goes into a production line. Clients have brought us a security enclosure for an apartment stoep designed to match the style of the building, and a custom stainless plate to extend a kitchen draining board with hooks for a dish rack.

We specialise in stainless steel, but we also offer mild steel and other metal products. If it can be designed, cut, welded and finished in metal, it's the kind of job we're built for.
