SAGGA & AMMSA Certified
A feat all on its own, becoming the only black-owned business that is AMMSA registered. AMMSA’s regulatory board awards its certification only to those businesses which meet its standards of safety and industry professionalism. This ensured Gaster Aluminium remained at the forefront of industry practises, and provided them with a stamp of approval for all customers to see.
The global pandemic was tough for every one of us, and this includes Gaster Aluminium. However, with that same spirit of tenacity that led us to create this dream, we persevered through the toughest of times. Once construction was allowed to resume, we hit the ground running, and in the years since, have built ourselves up to remain one of South Africa’s leading aluminium experts.
Now, with a team of highly-trained industry professionals and a workforce of dedicated, driven employees, Gaster Aluminium leads the charge in sustainable, affordable, and most importantly trustworthy aluminium construction and maintenance.

The Heart and soul of Gaster Aluminium
Gaster Aluminium started with a dream.
Our founder, Billy Gaster, studied structural engineering at a technical college, and his vision came to form when he looked around the township.
His neighbors, unable to afford aluminum or steel, used wooden frames for their windows and doors for their homes which caused issues with how their homes withstood the elements, this led him down the path that would lead him down a path to learn how aluminum and steel frames were manufactured and installed.
After working in the industry company for almost a decade, Billy saw how the industry could be further improved. With a tenacious spirit, he began to branch out on his own, and with his wife by his side, created the foundations that would become Gaster Aluminium.
At first operating out of a small fabricated building in the township, expanded into a make-shift workshop within a shipping container, and now has his very own warehouse out in Bellville.
An absolutely inspirational example of what is possible when one takes a dream and applies determination and passion to turn it into a reality.
