History
GK-it was established in 2003 when management realised that SA Industry needed an alternative to the dated "dig and dump" approach to accidental petroleum spillage. Products and services were then developed and field tested and a production plant established in 2004.
Products & Services
The company now holds a number of patents and manufactures over 30 environmental protection and rehabilitation products. Service provision includes management of large and small scale bioremediation projects, hydrocarbon waste assessments, specialised petroleum industrial cleaning solutions predominantly accessed by the mining and other large industrial sectors.
Ethos
GK is a progressive environmentally aware organisation. In practising what we preach, GK strives to limit our own carbon footprint by manufacturing locally from locally sourced industrial waste streams e.g. sunflower seed husks.
Current Status
We are currently rated as BEE Level 4.
Customers
We are proud to have developed ongoing relationships with customers across all sectors of South Africa industry as well as parts of the continent. We can be found on your local garage forecourt as well as an integral part of mining operations nationwide and in the development of new industry such as power stations.
