a.b.e.® Construction Chemicals was founded in 1932 but started operations

in 1939 in Durban as a supplier of bitumen to municipalities in KwaZulu-Natal.

a.b.e.® has over the years grown in both size and diversity to become a major

supplier of specialised construction products to the building, civil engineering

and building maintenance industries, supplying products directly to customers

through its branch network as well as through builders’ merchants and

hardware stores.

CHRYSO Southern Africa acquired a.b.e.® in September 2010. CHRYSO SA has

established itself as a major supplier of concrete and cement admixtures in

South Africa due to its investment in plant infrastructure, new technologies as

well as technical and customer support.

The acquisition by CHRYSO provides a.b.e.® with new technologies and

ongoing research and development programs to further enhance its position

in the market and add value to their customers.

a.b.e.® is committed to its sustainability policy, adopted from the CHRYSO

group, to sustain the seven values across economic, environmental and social

commitments.

a.b.e.® will continually invest and work on improving its structures as well

as upgrading production facilities, and strengthening its research and

development programmes while using existing channels in the market to

introduce new products that further enhance its current product range and

service offer to customers.
