BOOYCO ENGINEERING

ABOUT US

A BRIEF HISTORY OF

Booyco Engineering

Booyco Engineering has been building customised HVAC systems for over four decades.

Established in 1985, Booyco Engineering began its journey as a subsidiary of the renowned Howden Group, answering a crucial need in the local military vehicle building industry for specialised air handling services. With access to cutting-edge technology from a UK affiliate, the company swiftly emerged as a leader in HVAC solutions.

Following a management buyout amidst challenging times of sanctions and arms embargoes against South Africa, Booyco Engineering forged ahead independently, undertaking a vast array of projects. The company naturally expanded into the rail and mining sectors, leveraging the technology and experience acquired in military applications.

Now, with almost four decades of experience, we stand tall as the foremost designer and manufacturer of tailor-made HVAC and air handling solutions for heavy-duty mobile applications.

Quality Assurance

ISO 9001:2015 CERTIFIED

Booyco Engineering has a focused approach to customer satisfaction through quality assurance of both our products and our services.

Risk management is our key focus to ensure we deliver a quality product.  Risk is managed through the design, manufacture and after sales processes, using the various risk management tools we have available, such as FMEAs and risk and control management plans. 

Processes and procedures within the company conform to the requirements of ISO 9001:2015, which we have been accredited by SHEQ National Cert (Pty) Ltd since September 2018, and have been accredited to the ISO 9001 code since January 2001.  We have also been audited and approved by several OEM railway and military companies.

Each design undergoes stringent “type testing” to both Booyco’s internal standards, as well as any other customer specifications requested to verify our design meets your requirements. 

Thereafter, serial production units will follow a detailed build process, with recorded quality checks along the way, and finally subjected to comprehensive production testing to ensure we deliver consistent quality products to our customers.
