ALAF Limited, originally established in October 1960 as Aluminium Africa Limited, is Tanzania’s premier manufacturer of steel roofing and long structural steel products. Headquartered with its main operational facility in Dar es Salaam, the company has served as a foundational cornerstone of the nation’s construction sector for over six decades. Today, ALAF operates as a vital subsidiary of the Safal Group, which stands as the largest producer of metal roof sheeting across the African continent. The company specializes in an integrated production process, efficiently converting raw metal materials into high-performing building solutions. In 2010, ALAF significantly upgraded its local manufacturing capabilities by pioneering the use of advanced Aluminium-Zinc steel coating technology in Tanzania. This technological shift allows them to manufacture resilient roof sheeting that offers a substantially longer service life than traditional, ordinary galvanized steel. Beyond its signature residential and commercial roofing profiles like DumuRangi, ALAF’s diverse product portfolio features black steel pipes, customized Z-purlins, and robust structural hollow sections widely marketed under the trusted Simba Chuma brand name. ALAF remains at the forefront of East African infrastructural development through continuous multi-million-dollar capital investments and technical modernizations. A prominent example is its recent twenty-five million dollar state-of-the-art color coating line designed to dramatically reduce national reliance on imported building materials. Furthermore, the company maintains a robust corporate social investment strategy that channels resources directly into regional education, health, shelter, and environmental preservation initiatives.
