CONSTRUCTION SERVICES

The construction sector plays a vital role in driving the economic growth of any nation. As an investment-led industry, it consistently attracts significant government interest, particularly through contracts aimed at developing essential infrastructure in health, transport, and education. Successful project delivery requires the coordinated management of specialized services, including design, construction methods, financing, competence monitoring, and project marketing.

Makhoane Enterprises ensures excellence by employing highly qualified engineers, skilled craftsmen, and experienced builders—strengthening the firm’s reputation for quality and reliability. The company undertakes diverse projects ranging from workshops and warehouses to schools, residential blocks, and other key facilities.

Opportunities are often found in projects promoted by reputable external sources. In such cases, Makhoane Enterprises can serve as the investor’s representative, managing all interactions with construction partners. This includes providing oversight inspections, ensuring cost efficiency, and maintaining accurate and timely communication with investors. By doing so, the company not only safeguards project success but also contributes to national GDP growth, fosters economic development, and strengthens Zambia’s relationships with other countries.

DEMOLITION:

Demolition or razing, safely and efficiently tearing down of buildings and other man-made structures. Demolition contrasts with deconstruction, which involves taking a building apart while carefully preserving valuable elements for reuse purposes.

CASTING:

Casting is a fundamental manufacturing process in which a liquid material is poured into a mold containing a hollow cavity shaped to the desired design. Once the material solidifies, the formed component—known as a casting—is removed from the mold, either by ejection or by breaking the mold apart. This method enables the creation of complex shapes with precision and is widely used across industries for producing both simple and intricate parts.

Welding (Anchoring):

Welding is a fabrication process used to join materials—typically metals or thermoplastics—by applying high heat to melt the parts at their contact surfaces. As the molten sections cool, they solidify and fuse together, forming a strong and permanent bond.

Manufacturing & Supply of Fiber Glass Work:

Fibreglass has gained widespread popularity due to its versatility and durability. It can be molded into virtually any shape, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. In addition to its flexibility, fibreglass is highly resistant to acids, further enhancing its value in industrial environments.

Beyond everyday uses, fibreglass plays a vital role in manufacturing—particularly in the production of car parts and specialized equipment. For example, the gallery features a precipitator constructed from fibreglass, designed for use in a smelter to capture fumes that are later converted into sulfuric acid.

Makhoane Enterprises brings extensive expertise in fibreglass handling and molding. Over the years, we have successfully carried out numerous repairs and refurbishments on fibreglass equipment, reinforcing our reputation for quality workmanship and reliability.

Manufacturing & Supply of Iron Roofing Sheets:

Makhoane Enterprises manufactures high‑quality iron roofing sheets, including IT4, Versatile, and other popular profiles. Recognizing the critical role roofing plays in the strength and longevity of any building, the company is committed to producing sheets that are both durable and reliable. At the same time, Makhoane Enterprises ensures its products remain cost‑effective, offering customers affordable solutions without compromising on quality.

Manufacturing & Supply of Block & Pavers::

The energy-efficient design of LEDs enables them to produce brighter light than conventional bulbs while consuming significantly less electricity. In addition to LED technology, other power-saving solutions—such as maximum demand controllers, power factor correction units, geyser timers, and solar geysers—are also employed to enhance overall energy efficiency and reduce operating costs.

Polymer Concrete Works::

Polymer concrete is an advanced material that replaces traditional cement with resin, making it highly acid‑resistant and ideal for corrosive environments such as copper processing. Makhoane Enterprises has extensive expertise in handling and repairing polymer concrete equipment.

Polymers are added to enhance strength, durability, chemical resistance, and impermeability, while also allowing fresh concrete to be tailored to specific flow requirements. Commonly used polymers include:

  • Urethanes – formed from isocyanates and polyols
  • Acrylics – esters of acrylic and methacrylic acids
  • Vinyls – versatile industrial polymers
  • Epoxies – synthetic resins with strong bonding properties
  • Styrene‑Butadiene Resins (SBR) – synthetic rubbers that improve flexibility and durability

Lead Works & Testing:

Lead is widely used as a corrosion barrier in acidic mining environments due to its exceptional resistance to chemical attack. It also serves as a specialized alloy in electro‑refining and copper processing, and is commonly applied in areas where radioactive materials are handled, such as X‑ray facilities.

However, lead lining is a highly skilled process that requires precision and expertise. Makhoane Enterprises employs experienced lead burners who have worked extensively in mines across Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Our workforce is proficient in multiple lead‑burning techniques, including:

  • Homogeneous lead lining
  • Flat wrap lead lining
  • Upright lead lining
  • Overhead lead lining

To ensure safety and reliability, all welds must be thoroughly tested to eliminate leaks and voids. Makhoane Enterprises provides comprehensive testing services, guaranteeing the integrity and durability of every lead lining project.
