Southern Africa Ferro Alloys Limited (SAFAL) was the first Manganese Processing Unit in Zambia. The company has proven its mettle in this sector since its establishment in the year 2011.
With its current possession of Manganese Ore mines and the location of the plant in the Central Province (the Manganese belt) of Zambia, the company is successfully able to manufacture products ranging from Ferro Manganese, Silico Manganese & Ferro Silicon for export purposes. These are alloys primarily used in the steel processing industry for alloying, de-oxidation and de-sulphurisation.
SAFAL currently operates two 6 MVA Ferro Alloys Furnaces in the Serenje District which enjoys connectivity by road to the Durban, Beira and Dar Es Salaam ports which form the gateway for material export from Zambia. In the key markets of Europe, USA, Japan, Korea, India and many other markets, Zambian origin alloys enjoy advantage of duty-free imports as against competing countries like India and China where the material is subjected to Anti-Dumping Duties.
The Company especially takes pride in the state of art testing facility located on site, where analysis is done by both Wet Method and XRF, ensuring the delivery of a quality product. (edited)
