KD Materials Laboratory was founded in 2013 to provide professional services in the field of Civil Engineering infrastructure. It was founded by two previously disadvantaged people namely Andrew Baloyi who previously worked for Roadlab, Northern Province Laboratory and MVRE lab for 12 years and Dennis Mahlaule who previously worked for MBS Consulting Engineers, Concor Roads & Earthworks and Murray & Roberts Construction for a period of 12 years. With the experience we acquired from the above companies we provide the best we can.
