Akura Manufacturing Engineering Company (Pty) Ltd

General information

Who we are

Akura is a 2nd generation family owned engineering company, established in 1970. Started by Andre' du Toit (Director - retired) with the support of his colleagues, Akura has now been handed over to his sons, Lance (Managing Director) and Anton (Director).

What we do

Akura is one of Africa’s leading manufacturers of baling equipment and a major manufacturer/supplier of waste handling equipment. We have successfully implemented many projects, from small to large.

Although we primarily focus on projects to reduce the volume of waste materials and/or to extract recyclates, having our own in-house design team enables us to offer bespoke solutions to meet your individual requirements across many disciplines.

Why we do it

Efficient compressing of bulky waste materials will dramatically reduce volumes for cheaper storage, handling and transport. Many waste materials may be recovered and recycled, resulting in possible cost recuperation, or even profit, on your disposal program. The fact that you will be helping to keep our world a bit greener too, is a further important consideration.
