About Us
Waypoint Engineering traces its roots back to Veldkon Engineering, a family-owned business founded by T.H. Botha in 1971. For over three decades, Veldkon earned a strong reputation for quality, reliability, and commitment to the South African mining and engineering sectors.
In response to significant legislative changes in 2004, Waypoint Engineering was formed as a continuation and evolution of Veldkon. The new entity retained the original premises, equipment, and most of the skilled staff, ensuring a seamless transition. PP Sekabate—who had been with Veldkon since its early days—became co-owner alongside JW Botha, bringing deep experience and continuity into the new venture.
Today, Waypoint Engineering is proudly a Level 4 B-BBEE certified company, trusted by clients across the mining and industrial sectors. The company is driven by a dynamic leadership team:
Marius Lamprecht – Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
PP Sekabate – Chief Operating Officer (COO) / Managing Director (MD)
Rika Lamprecht – Chief Financial Officer (CFO) / Financial Director (FD)
Jaco Botha – General Manager / Director
