About Us

Mechgen was founded 2013 with the objective of providing a range of specialised engineering and related supportive services to its clients, large and small in the Greater KwaZulu Natal region.

Mechgen has an 800m² workshop with an 8ton overhead crane, as well as a fully equipped Mobile Service Trailer, enabling the company to do on-site boilermaking, thermite welding, rigging, mechanical fitting and diesel fitting and repairs. The workshop houses welding machines, milling machines, lathes etc. We are able to deliver 2.8 tons of steel a day on conveyor structure and 3.5 tons on heavy structural steel.

Through self-motivation, dedication, retention of skilled staff, and adequate resourcing of the owned workshop, we are able deliver quality service to our clients through a balanced blend of technical, financial, and people skills.
