cobbles and pavers under license for the Western and Southern Cape. Other products made under license include Terraforce and Loffelstein retaining wall blocks. Founded in 1981, the company’s three Southern Cape plants and extensive product range make it the Southern Cape’s precast concrete building products market leader. “We are an extremely versatile and solution driven company,” says CEO Chris van Zyl. “We operate to a philosophy of always ensuring that customers don’t leave without being helped even if it means referring them to another company.
“Mountain View is an excellent example of this policy. We made bespoke tree rings and staircases based on the client’s size and spec requirements. “Moreover, our staircases highlight the advantages of precast construction. They are delivered in kit form and don’t require cranes for off-loading and installation. Manual labour suffices and subbies are easily trained to do the assembly and installation work. Precast staircases also save time and unlike in-situ staircases, don’t require skilled carpenters to construct timber frames,” concludes van Zyl. n
Apart from its precast staircases, this picture shows the entire range of products delivered by Mobicast to Mountain View.
