We were instrumental in drafting the current version of SANS 1273 (roofing fasteners) and are currently involved in the revision of this standard. As a result of the 2009 version the corrosion resistance of fasteners was highlighted and with the assistance of the major roll formers, the use of quality fasteners has improved significantly.

We are active members on the technical committees of SAMCRA (South African Metal Roofing & Cladding Association), SASSFA, (Southern Africa Light Steel Frame Building Association) as well as the Corrossion Institute of South Africa.

SASFA - Southern African Light Steel Frame Building Association
SASFA - Southern African Light Steel Frame Building Association
The advent of light steel frame building in South Africa is one of the most exciting developments in recent times in the steel and building industries. While this method of building has been used in the US , Europe and Australia for decades, it was only recently introduced to our shores. It offers quality, cost efficiency and speed of erection for low-rise residential and non-residential buildings. Kare Industrial Suppliers is a proud member of SASFA.

Everyone acquainted with construction will agree that the extensive metal roofing industry is in urgent need of a make-over. The substitution of specified materials with inferior products has become rife with price prevailing over structural performance and durability. In an attempt to restore credibility in the industry concerned players have formed the Southern African Metal Cladding and Roofing Association (SAMCRA). Kare Industrial Suppliers is a proud member of SAMCRA.
