Africa’s mining capital – Lubumbashi – is a fast-growing economy with excellent opportunities for infrastructure improvements.
In the year 2005, SOMIKA Group and STEELMAKERS came together to form a company that would gear the economics of infrastructure development in D.R.Congo, and thus the SOTRAFER was formed. The pioneering spirit in both companies lives on today.
SOTRAFER is engaged in the manufacturing of high-quality TMT STEEL BARS (Thermo Mechanically Treated). To produce high-grade TMT STEEL BARS – having high yield strength – the company produces mild steel billets through an Induction furnace and CCM. These billets are manufactured as per SABS (South African Bureau of Standards).
Apart from producing TMT Bar – SOTRAFER also produces Oxygen (Industrial & Medical), Nitrogen, and Acetylene gases, parallelly it also supply Argon Gases in the region.
SOTRAFER has a shop floor with a wide range of high-tech machinery and machine tools that offer precision and flexibility to optimize production yield and quality. Reducing production costs and improving product quality can improve the operational efficiency of the factory floor.
SOTRAFER has a well-equipped in-house testing laboratory to facilitate constant monitoring of material at every stage, ensuring the manufacturing quality.
