Industrial generators and power systems that keep your factory running through any blackout. Minimize waste. Meet deadlines.
Kenya's manufacturing sector contributes 10% of GDP. From Mombasa Road factories to Thika industrial area, reliable power is the difference between profit and loss. Every minute of downtime costs money.
We'll assess your facility and provide a detailed power analysis at no cost.
Power failures in manufacturing & industries don't just cause inconvenience - they cost real money, damage reputations, and can even put lives at risk.
Modern production lines can't restart instantly. Machinery needs recalibration, materials are wasted, and you lose 30-60 minutes even after power returns.
Mid-process materials often can't be saved. Plastic hardens in injection molds, food products spoil, chemical reactions fail. Materials worth millions thrown away.
Export orders have fixed ship dates. Missing a container means expensive air freight or contract penalties. Major buyers blacklist unreliable suppliers.
Industrial motors, PLCs, drives, and CNC machines are damaged by power fluctuations. Repairs take weeks when parts must be imported.
Dark factories with moving machinery are dangerous. Emergency lighting and equipment shutdowns must work perfectly to prevent injuries.
Tailored power solutions designed specifically for the challenges your industry faces. All backed by our 3-Year Warranty.
Heavy-duty generators from 100kVA to 2000kVA. Designed for factory loads with high starting currents, 24/7 operation capability, and automatic changeover.
Reduce electricity bills by 15-30% and avoid KPLC penalties. Our capacitor banks improve power factor, reduce demand charges, and extend equipment life.
Keep your generators production-ready with scheduled maintenance, emergency response, and genuine parts. Because unplanned downtime is not an option.

Common questions from manufacturing & industries professionals like you.
It depends on your connected load and starting characteristics. A factory with 200kW of motors might need a 400kVA generator due to motor starting currents. We provide FREE load analysis using power loggers that record your actual usage for 1-2 weeks. This ensures accurate sizing - not oversized (wasted money) or undersized (won't work).
Yes. For large facilities (500kVA+), we often recommend multiple synchronized generators instead of one large unit. Benefits: (1) Redundancy - if one fails, others keep running, (2) Fuel efficiency - run fewer units during low demand, (3) Easier maintenance - service one while others operate. We've installed synchronized systems up to 4MW.
Large motors can draw 6-8x their running current at startup. We address this with: (1) Properly sized generators with high transient capacity, (2) Soft starters or VFDs to reduce inrush current, (3) Sequenced starting of large loads, (4) Generator auto-sizing that accounts for worst-case scenarios.
We offer extended fuel tanks (500-2000L built-in, external tanks up to 10,000L). For critical operations, we can arrange automatic fuel monitoring and scheduled delivery contracts with major suppliers. Your generator will never run dry.
Many export factories need ISO, HACCP, or customer-specific certifications that include power backup requirements. We provide documentation, test certificates, and calibration records that satisfy auditors. We've helped factories pass audits for Walmart, Tesco, and other major buyers.

Engineering reference
On the factory floor the challenge is brute load and clean control at the same time: heavy motor starts that dictate generator size, processes that cannot tolerate a glitch, and increasingly non-linear loads (VFDs, induction) that distort the supply if you let them.
A direct-on-line motor pulls six to eight times its full-load current on starting, and on most factories it is that worst-case start — while the rest of the plant is already running — that sets the generator and alternator size, not the steady running load. We base the sizing on starting kVA, and where it pays, we cut the requirement with soft starters or VFDs rather than buying a bigger set.
Process continuity then dictates the transfer scheme: a momentary dip that trips a PLC or ruins a batch is a real cost, so critical control systems sit on a UPS while the generator carries the motive load. We size against a measured load profile, because nameplate sums grossly over- or under-state what a real plant draws.
A plant full of VFDs and rectifiers injects harmonics that overheat transformers and trip drives, so we manage total harmonic distortion (detuned power-factor correction, filters where needed) to stay within IEEE 519 and remove the KPLC reactive penalty. Correcting power factor alone often frees real transformer and cable capacity for expansion.
For energy-intensive plants we also model solar and, where the load is steady, the economics of running generation closer to base load — turning the power system from a pure cost into a managed one with documented savings.
