Magnet Electrical, a leading industrial and commercial electrical and energy solutions provider, has relocated its Gauteng office to Sunnyrock, Germiston.
Founded over 53 years ago as an electrical supplier, Magnet has evolved into a multi-disciplinary expert in the Energy and Sustainability industry. The company is passionate about managing, saving, and generating energy for customers through comprehensive solutions that address modern industrial and commercial challenges.
With this relocation, Magnet continues to operate from its head office in Durban, with branches in Richards Bay and Pietermaritzburg in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), and now from its new Germiston facility in Gauteng. This strategic move enables the company to better serve its growing client base across these key industrial regions.
In-house expertise
Central to Magnet's offering is its strong in-house Engineering and Project Management division, which designs and completes turnkey electrical, lighting, solar and back-up power projects. The team of committed and motivated professionals focuses on identifying operational issues within client facilities and providing the most suitable products, solutions, and services to ensure smooth and efficient operations.
The company's engineers specialise in turnkey projects with a strong focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. They audit, design and install solutions for warehouses, factories, including hazardous areas, and retail environments.
Strategic partnerships
Magnet's technical expertise is backed by longstanding relationships with major international electrical brands. The company has been a Schneider Electrical distributor for over three decades, maintaining the largest stockholding of automation products and offering extensive technical expertise and product knowledge.
As the only National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) hub in KZN for Eaton products, Magnet has established itself as one of the fastest-growing distributors in South Africa for this brand. Similarly, the company has achieved rapid growth as a Siemens distributor, further cementing its position in the market.
Magnet supplies products from market-leading brands, with a highly trained sales team supported by industry engineers. The company offers skilled technical advice and engineered solutions for all electrical and lighting infrastructure needs.
This combination of extensive experience, strategic partnerships, and technical expertise positions Magnet Electrical as a comprehensive solution provider in the evolving energy and sustainability landscape, with the new Gauteng facility enhancing its ability to serve clients across South Africa.
