Welcome to East Coast Columns and Moulding
East Coast Columns and Mouldings commenced operations in Durban in 2004. Trends and new technology within the international construction industry had shown that opportunities existed in the local market to manufacture and market fairly unique building and architectural solutions to the industry.
Prior to the company being operational from a production perspective, extensive investigation and experimentations were carried out perfecting the process of Roto-casting in relation to physical production technology and raw material composition. Structural and Civil Engineers were consulted and the Kwa-Zulu Natal University’s Engineering Faculty participated, carrying out intensive tests in such critical areas as compressive and flexural strength, product density, shrinkage & thermal behaviour, as well as dynamic loading and impact loading tests.
PictureSouth African Bureau of Standards’ (SABS) concrete tests were conducted and NCS Resins, the premier South African supplier of resins and composites, were consulted where numerous further tests were carried out in their head office laboratory in Durban. The National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC) also participated with their intellectual input.
Following the commencement of operations in Durban, the Brits (Johannesburg) factory followed in July 2006 and the Cape Town factory opened in September 2006. To date the polymer concrete resin-based products manufactured by the company have had an enormous impact on the building industry, emphasising their acceptance in the areas of aesthetics, labour saving and cost saving through time and physical materials
