NJR Steel Cape Town Shines at NAMPO 2025: Innovation, Connection & Growth

Strength in Service: A Roundup of NJR Steel's Mandela Day Initiatives On July 18th, South Africans unite to honour the legacy of Nelson Mandela by dedicating 67 minutes to serving others—one minute for every year of his public service.  At NJR Steel, this day is more than a date on the calendar; it is a call to action embraced with heart and purpose. Across the country, our branches transformed the spirit of Mandela Day into tangible support for the communities we call home, proving that every act of kindness, big or small, helps build a better future.

Re-roofing a Landmark: NJR Delivers Engineering Precision at NWU Auditorium NJR Potchefstroom was recently commissioned by North-West University (NWU) to solve a persistent leak in the auditorium roof—a complex task due to the very low pitch of the existing structure. Rather than replace the roof entirely, the team opted to erect a new roof structure over the old one. This solution ensured minimal disruption to ongoing activities inside the auditorium. In the absence of an appointed architect, NJR joined the design team directly, offering both product expertise and technical input. Our proposed light steel truss system was reviewed and approved by the project’s structural engineer. The project posed significant engineering challenges. The 40-year-old auditorium had no CAD documentation—only original paper plans. The building’s large, kite-shaped roof spans 70 metres diagonally and 35 metres across the shorter axis, with perimeter wall heights reaching 12 metres.

Multi-Functional Security Made Simple: NJR’s DeFence System Delivers Beyond the Perimeter  What began as a standard perimeter fencing installation at a major shopping centre quickly evolved into a showcase of the adaptability and effectiveness of NJR Steel’s DeFence modular fencing system. Originally specified to secure the property boundary, the see-through DeFence panels and modular post system proved so versatile that they were soon deployed across a wide range of additional security applications on-site. These included protective enclosures for external air conditioning units, electrical distribution boxes, water tanks, and other vulnerable infrastructure installations—demonstrating the system's suitability for more than just perimeter DeFence.
