Construction Kaiser, PERI Sign Technical Partnership
Construction Kaiser Limited has officially align her operations with PERI through a technical partnership agreement.
“This affiliation is indeed of great importance because of the ingenuity of the technical innovations that CKL will leverage on in her operations,” said officials of the companies, at the agreement signing ceremony in Lagos, recently.
PERI, founded in 1969, is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding. They presently have more than 70 subsidiaries and over 120 logistics centers currently operational. The company employs over 8,100 employees worldwide and definitely has blazed the trail for formwork and scaffolding innovation in Nigeria.
Over 50% of fatalities on construction sites are as a result of weak scaffolding, wrong formwork placement and poor training in the use of formwork. The partnership between CKL and PERI seeks to bridge that gap by deploying cutting edge technology and skill in the use of PERI’s world renowned Formwork and continuous training. This also seeks to drastically reduce occurrences of building collapse during formwork failure in projects ensuring that quality standards are maintained. This partnership will enable CKL deploy PERI products optimally.
Starting as a small 5-man organisation carrying out minor renovation works, the company has grown to become a national force in the Nigerian construction industry. The Lagos regional office was established in 2003 and the Abuja regional office in 2008, having successfully executed various projects in the South-South and South-Eastern parts of the country prior to the expansion.
