Our Technical Director is Mr Nhlanhla (Lucky) Mamba, who has more than 25 years’ experience in the Mining- and Chemical-Testing Laboratory Field.

These services range from laboratory design, equipping, commissioning, and, if required, management of laboratories; we also facilitate the sourcing and supply of consumables and equipment to African operations.
