Where and how we work
Founded in 1988 by Jochen Kofahl and Robert Plattner, Hydraform today operates from offices in Johannesburg, South Africa. We also have regional offices throughout Southern Africa, East Africa, West Africa and Asia – yielding representation in over 50 countries worldwide.
Our manufacturing facilities, in which only the most efficient contemporary manufacturing methods are used, are to be found in Johannesburg and Durban. Furthermore, we mass-produce high-quality precision parts using Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machines.
How we think and grow
Hydraform has always placed a strong emphasis on providing clients with cutting-edge technologies. By conducting ongoing research and development – both in-house and in collaboration with local experts and the University of the Witwatersrand, we continually strive to improve existing products and to create innovative and appropriate new offerings.
