Ethiopia is currently witnessing one of the fastest urban transformations in Sub-Saharan Africa. From the skyline of Addis Ababa to industrial hubs in Hawassa and Adama, the demand for high-quality Steel Scaffold Planks is surging. As the nation invests heavily in infrastructure projects—including the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), new road networks, and high-rise commercial buildings—the shift from traditional wooden scaffolding to modern steel systems has become a critical standard for safety and efficiency.
Addis Ababa's transition to high-density vertical living requires scaffolding that can withstand high-altitude wind loads and heavy personnel traffic.
Ethiopian regulatory bodies are increasingly adopting BS EN12811 standards, making non-slip steel planks the preferred choice over bamboo.
Given the tropical climate and seasonal rains, hot-dip galvanized steel planks offer superior corrosion resistance compared to traditional materials.
Hangzhou Shubrixa Build Co., Ltd. is a specialized enterprise engaged in the R&D, production, and sales of construction equipment. Leveraging the industrial cluster advantages of Xian County—known as "China’s Hometown of Construction Equipment"—the company focuses on the development and manufacturing of scaffolding systems, steel support structures, and safety accessories. Our entry into the Ethiopian market is backed by years of experience supplying international engineering firms across the Middle East and Africa.
Our core products include ledgerlock scaffolding, hot-dip galvanized steel treads, adjustable steel props, and steel mesh panels, which are widely used in building construction, bridge engineering, and municipal infrastructure projects. Adhering to the business philosophy of "Quality as the Foundation, Service as the Principle," we provide integrated construction equipment solutions to Ethiopian clients through stringent quality control and efficient supply chain integration via the Port of Djibouti.
The company’s flagship products are made of high-strength alloy steel and undergo precision processing and anti-corrosion treatments. Among them, the ledgerlock scaffolding system utilizes Q355B steel, with vertical poles measuring 60 mm in diameter and 3.2 mm in wall thickness. Paired with adjustable bases and top sockets, it enables rapid assembly—essential for Ethiopia's fast-paced "Growth and Transformation Plan" (GTP) projects.
Our hot-dip galvanized steel treads (1.2m x 0.3m) feature proprietary anti-slip surface patterns. Furthermore, our steel mesh panels are press-formed from 4.0 mm thick steel plates, with diamond-shaped apertures. They deliver a tensile strength of 100 KN/m, offering significantly superior fire resistance—a critical factor for industrial parks in the Bole Lemi or Kilinto regions.
In the financial district of Addis Ababa, where banks and corporate headquarters are rising, steel scaffold planks provide the stability needed for external facade works and glazing. Unlike timber, steel does not warp under the intense sun at high altitudes (2,355 meters above sea level).
Ethiopia's bridge engineering requires heavy-duty support systems. Our steel scaffold planks are integrated into Ringlock systems to support heavy reinforcement bars and concrete pouring for overpasses and river crossings.
The development of specialized economic zones (SEZs) across Ethiopia relies on prefabricated steel structures. Our galvanized planks are perfect for long-term maintenance catwalks within these industrial sheds.
Hangzhou Shubrixa Build Co., Ltd. implements a 12-step quality inspection process from raw material testing to finished product delivery. We are ISO9001-certified, ensuring that every plank shipped to Ethiopia meets international safety benchmarks. Our logistics network ensures that we can provide rapid response times, addressing the urgent needs of major contractors like China State Construction and Ethiopia's local construction giants.
Moving forward, we are committed to promoting the standardization and green transformation of construction equipment in East Africa. By choosing our steel scaffold planks, Ethiopian developers are investing in a sustainable future where construction waste is minimized and site safety is maximized.
