What an incredible day at SuperSport Park in Centurion!

GRS was proud to be part of the Specifying Techniques event, hosted at one of South Africa’s most iconic sporting venues. What a fantastic setting for a day of industry connection, technical insight, and inspiration.

The timing made it even more special, with the excitement building toward tonight’s FIFA World Cup 2026 opening fixture, where South Africa takes on Mexico. The football theme carried through the event beautifully, with country flags displayed around the auditorium, creating a vibrant and memorable atmosphere.

After each presentation, questions were posed to the audience, adding a fun and interactive element to the day. The winners each walked away with an official FIFA soccer shirt from one of the countries participating in this year’s tournament.

Our presentation centred around one clear message: Delivering the Exceptional.

We showcased the performance
capabilities of our Klip-Tite®️ concealed-fix roofing profile, highlighted prestigious projects recently completed, and shared how architects can continue to push design boundaries with confidence — knowing that GRS has the technical expertise, product range, and manufacturing capability to help bring ambitious ideas to life.

We also covered important industry topics, including SANS 10237:2023 Edition 2, material options and availability, GRS Technical Support Services, our Specifications Team, Spec-Wizard, Titan AI Assistant, and the availability of GRS profiles on the BIM4U Hub.

To round off the day, there was also a fantastic giveaway by Express Fitness Urban, courtesy of John Frayne — an electronic fitness bike, which created a great buzz and ended the event on a high note.

A big thank you to the organisers, fellow presenters, event partners, and all the architects, specifiers, and built environment professionals who joined us.

Days like these remind us why we do what we do: supporting professionals, enabling great design, and delivering roofing and cladding solutions that perform.
