Joseph Mburu Muigai the founder of Ngao Building Systems Limited attributes his journey with roofing tiles to a trip he took to South Africa back in 1993. He attended a building Expo and came across metal-stone coated roofing tiles manufactured by Harvey Roofing Products PTY Limited.He found that an interesting technology and carried a tile sample which he brought back home. He consulted with the professionals & got encouraged by AAK(Architectural Association of Kenya), IQSK(Institute of Quantity surveyors of Kenya), IAK (Institute of Engineers of Kenya) and the Ministry of Public Works. However, the uptake by the homeowners was slow as its cost was 500% more than the conventional tiles(clay and concrete).
Eventually, there was a breakthrough and acceptability of the product into the market and more players joined. Steel prices went up in South Africa and that led to his loss of market share in the industry as he was competing with international brands. He eventually developed his own product after doing an intense research on the raw materials. He acquired an OEM agreement with Linyi Jinhu a Chinese company that has since been manufacturing his product. He prides himself on being the first person to introduce the technology to Kenya out of South-Africa. He also designed the Thatch Profile that is a substitute of the traditional Makuti (Thatch) roof with a modern touch. Being the pioneer, he was involved in the setup of the KEBS Standard for metal-stone coated roofing tiles in Kenya. A lot of personalities in the industry have gone through his hands.
Ngao products have been tested and meet the SGS import requirement as required by KEBS. Among his past clients include the American Embassy Residential houses, International School of Kenya, Nakumatt Nyali Mombasa, Diani Reef beach hotel, Travellers beach hotel among other commercial and residential properties.
