Peikko South Africa, with its office situated South of Johannesburg, was established in 2018 to meet the growing demand for Peikko’s innovative solutions on the African Continent. Peikko South Africa is part of the Peikko Group Corporation, a leading global supplier of slim floor structures and connection technology for precast and cast-in-situ applications. Now, as Peikko’s operations in South Africa continue to grow, the need for high-quality technical support for customers and partners has become increasingly important.
To meet this demand, Peikko South Africa and PDS Civil & Structural Engineers have agreed to start a cooperation where PDS will act as Peikko’s partner in providing engineering services and end-customer technical support across all Peikko South Africa operations. The cooperation agreement comes into effect on 1 January 2026.
Through this partnership, Peikko gains access to PDS’s team of ten experienced engineers – one of the leading precast engineering teams in South Africa. This collaboration will enable Peikko to provide immediate and scalable technical support for its customers and partners in the region.
“With PDS, we can serve our local customers in South Africa and meet their needs better than ever. The team’s expertise, market insight, and mindset fit Peikko perfectly,” says Topi Paananen, CEO of Peikko Group.
“We are excited to collaborate with Peikko South Africa and look forward to supporting the growth of the precast sector in the region,” adds Spiros Sdralis, Director of PDS Civil & Structural Engineers.
