Overview of Business

Nothana Holdings (Pty) Ltd is a dynamic, impact-driven enterprise revolutionising the construction materials industry through circular innovation. Founded in 2016 and proudly 80% female-owned, we are a relentless and inclusive team of problem solvers committed to building a sustainable future.

Our Innovation
