PVC piping: the workhorse behind every tap and drop​
​
Large municipal PVC pipes start as PVC resin - a synthetic polymer powder composed of roughly chlorine and carbon. The resin is blended with stabilisers and additives, heated, pushed through an extruder, and shaped by a die. It is then generally cooled in a vacuum calibration tank, cut to length, and given a socket at one end so sections can be joined with rubber ring seals.​
​
A 400mm diameter pipe flowing at a typical design velocity of 1.5 m/s moves roughly 600,000 litres of water an hour. That is enough to supply thousands of households.​
​
Why PVC has replaced older materials like cast iron, steel and asbestos cement:​
✔ Corrosion-resistant, so no rust or scaling​
✔ Smooth bore, so less friction and lower pumping costs​
✔ Lightweight, so faster and safer installation​
✔ Sealed joints that reduce leaks​
✔ A design life of 50+ years​
​
Reliable water supply starts underground. These are the building materials that change lives.

Behind every road, development and community project is a team of skilled professionals bringing different expertise to the table.​
​
Engineers. Town planners. Project managers. Finance professionals. Technical specialists. Construction teams. And the many others behind the scenes that keep projects moving.​
​
At GIC, we recognise that technical capability is only part of the equation. It is the combination of knowledge, experience and collaboration that turns complex infrastructure challenges into meaningful outcomes.​
​
The stronger the team, the greater the impact.​

Sixteen teams. Some of South Africa’s best cricketing schools. One high-intensity T20 stage. 🏏

Grey College took on the 2026 Noordsuid Wildeklawer T20 competition and came away with exactly what a season-opener should deliver: match sharpness, hard lessons and a clear mark to build on.

Facing the country’s best is how good teams get better. The season ahead is the real prize, and Grey is ready for it.

GIC is a proud supporter of Grey College's sports programme and the role sports players in positively changing the lives of its participants.

Building the infrastructure behind changed lives in Roodepan.​
​
The Roodepan Project in Kimberley in the Northern Cape delivered essential internal infrastructure to support 266 stands within the Sol Plaatje Local Municipality.​
​
The project included:​
• 3.78 km of internal gravel roads​
• 3.42 km of sewer reticulation and 129 manholes​
• 3.83 km of water infrastructure and 266 water meters​
• Stormwater channels and 31 concrete stormwater drifts​
• 1.51 km of subsoil drainage​
• Road signage and supporting infrastructure​
​
Beyond the infrastructure itself, the project created opportunities for local participation, with 33 local workers contributing to delivery, including 10 women.​
​
With an average health and safety score of 96%, the project reflects GIC's focus on delivering infrastructure with quality, safety and purpose.​
​
Infrastructure creates more than roads and services. It creates the foundations for communities to grow.​

The project in Hlalanikahle Section L, located near Kwa-Guqa in Emalahleni, saw GIC provide internal civil services to 397 stands, with the project beginning in August 2020 and completion occurring as planned in April the following year.​
​
Prior to the project, the area suffered from a lack of services and running water. Services provided include a sewerage gravitation network, water distribution network, and the development of streets and stormwater channels to service the area.

FUN FACT: Why are manhole covers round?​
​
A round manhole cover cannot fall through its own opening.​
​
No matter how you turn it, it is always wider than the hole.​

Clever engineering hiding in plain sight.

South Africa's cities and large towns produce over 80% of national economic output. Over 65% of South Africa's population live in urban areas, a figure that is projected to rise to as high as 80% in 2050.​
​
In this context, "public-private partnerships (PPPs), blended finance, and other alternative funding models are becoming increasingly important in delivering the infrastructure future metro populations will depend on," says Roelof van den Berg, CEO at Gap Infrastructure Corporation.​
​
"For metros to attract private capital, investors need confidence that projects can be delivered successfully, that revenue-generating services are financially sustainable, and that infrastructure funding is managed in a way that supports long-term system performance."​

A Life-Changing Difference 💧​
​
“Before, this area was very, very bad. We used to walk very far just to get access to water.”​
​
For residents of Hlalanikahle, access to basic services once meant long walks, difficult journeys and relying on others for something as essential as water.​
​
Through the Hlalanikahle project, 6.5 km of sewer pipes and 15 km of water pipes were installed, with water and sewer connections provided to 311 stands. The project also included 16 hydrants, 83 manholes, 17 valves and 30 road signs.​
​
But beyond the numbers is the real impact: people can now access water in their own yards.​
​
“Now I can do it myself because the water is near to me now.”​
​
Infrastructure is more than pipes and roads. It is about dignity, independence and creating better lives for communities.​
