Kens Metal Industries Ltd - Nairobi, Kenya

Kens Metal Industries Limited was started as a foundry in 1982 which produced, stocked and supplied Cast Iron, Brass, Bronze and Aluminium. We were initially a sand casting foundry and a machine workshop. In 1984 we started pressure die casting of brass and Aluminium, as well as that a small Brass extrusion press was installed.

A tool room which contained Pantograph, Milling and Spark erosion Machines a was set up a year later. Between 1984 and 1996 our main business was Brass fittings and decorating architectural brass work. 1996 is when we ventured into stocking and supplying ferrous and nonferrous materials. Also in ’96 our first continuous casting for copper based alloys was installed. We are currently a leading company in East Africa for supplying engineering materials.
