Who we are

Egypt’s first electro-mechanical support manufacturer.

The African Company for Trading & Engineering (AFROFIX) is the first manufacturer in Egypt specialised in producing electro-mechanical support systems and parts for industrial, commercial and utility installations. We produce complete pipe support systems, beam clamps, brackets, complete mechanical cladding fixation systems, concrete inserts and steel framing systems.

Our products have been used by many of the Egyptian main contractors — including Orascom Construction, The Arab Contractors, Hassan Allam, REDCON, NAFFCO, CCC and Contrack — on projects across Egypt and the MENA region. AFROFIX is approved by many prestigious engineering consultancies, among them Dar Al-Handasah, Dr. Shaker Consultancy Group, ECG, Sabbour and RMC.

Mission & vision

What we set out to do.

Our mission

AFROFIX seeks to provide products and services with the highest standards of quality. So we permanently develop our product range to comply with international standards like the Manufacturers Standardization Society (MSS), Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) and others, to meet our customers’ expectations for durable and standardised products.

As an expert in the electro-mechanical support field for more than 30 years, we don’t only supply — we consult with the main engineering houses regarding suitable materials and technical design choices that will meet their needs.

Our vision

As an Egyptian company, our vision is:

  • To positively affect the Egyptian economy by offering to the local market products that were once imported.
  • Seeking exporting opportunities across the MENA region and in European markets.
  • Working on our employees’ development to help them shape the future direction of their careers.
Leadership

Eng. Mourad Kelada

Chairman

Eng. Mourad Kelada, Chairman of The African Company for Trading & Engineering (AFROFIX), received his bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering from Ain Shams University in 1962. He worked in many multinational organisations until 1981, when he founded AFROFIX.

As a pioneer, he identified the Egyptian market’s need for electro-mechanical support systems, and started his business in that unique, propitious niche.

He was the first in Egypt to introduce the idea of using universal plastic plugs to mount pipe clamps to walls, and also the first to produce the strut channels used in steel framing systems in the Egyptian market. In 1990, due to his efforts, AFROFIX became one of the biggest three companies in Egypt producing cable trays.
