Enhancing the life of buildings and structures.

01The problem

Structural deterioration
Water leakage
Peeling paint
Damaged tiles
Failing screeds
Concrete that gives up early

Sahihi Construction Chemicals Limitedsupplies construction chemicals to Tanzania's building industry from Dar es Salaam, as an authorized distributor of Mapei, Oriental Yuhong and X-Calibur.

Over the past few decades the industry has met the same failures again and again: structural deterioration, water leakage, peeling paint, damaged tiles, failing screeds and concrete that gives up early.

Our work is to bring proven systems here and make sure they are applied properly: waterproofing, flooring, structural strengthening and rehabilitation, sports surfaces, and construction chemicals for mining and underground work.

Each of them shortens the life of a building, and each has a chemical answer that is already proven elsewhere.

03
Structural Strengthening & Rehabilitation
Existing concrete, repaired and strengthened so the structure keeps its value.
04
Sports Flooring & Coatings
Playing surfaces for schools, clubs and professional venues.
05
