Astore Keymak, manufacturer of plastic pressure fittings brand KeyFit, was founded and driven on the premise of supplying and manufacturing superior-quality products complemented by sound technical support.

Established as Astore Africa in 1985, the company was bought by Hudaco Trading in 2008, following which it acquired polyvinyl chloride (PVC) hose manufacturer and supplier Keymak in 2012. To take advantage of the existing synergies between Astore Africa and Keymak, Astore Keymak was launched this year, giving birth to a renewed vision and strategy clearly depicted by the company’s positioning statement: “Driven By Quality; Delivered By Experience!”.

The Boksburg-headquartered company’s production process is carefully executed at its specialised Randfontein manufacturing facility, in Gauteng, under the supervision of a highly skilled and qualified team of engineers. One of the key differentiators of its production process is the use of virgin raw materials, which ensure complete control of the end product. All production processes and completed products conform to recognised local and international standards, namely ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.

Astore Africa is a leading supplier in Southern Africa of the most comprehensive range of thermoplastic pipe fittings, valves and pipeline accessories in all recognised materials, as well as plastic welding equipment. Its high-quality products are supplied to most industries where pressured piping systems are in use, such as mining and agriculture, while Keymak’s superior-quality PVC hoses are suited for several industrial, agricultural and mining applications.

Employing 150 people, OHSAS 18001:2007-compliant Astore Keymak has ten branches across South Africa.
