Swayana was founded in 2016 as a Black Economic Empowered company that aims to become a reputable player in the South African green fuels and chemical industry. Newly founded, the company is led by Mr. Joseph Zinyana and Dr Kokkie Swanepoel – both of whom have many years of engineering experience and are successful businessmen.

Swayana was formed to consolidate and leverage the successful 21-year history of it’s sister company Thermtron Scientific – of which Dr Swanepoel was a founding director. Focused on developing projects in the green fuels and chemical industry, Dr Swanepoel teamed up with Joseph Zinyana – who since the early 2000’s has developed and run a very profitable welding and speciality engineering solutions company – New Age Engineering Solutions.

Swayana is a forward-thinking company that will build an industry, generate jobs, be sustainable and use science and technology to accomplish their big ideas.
