Socoghaf is a company based in Ouagadougou (Burkina-Faso), leader in the field of ferrous and non-ferrous steel distribution and represents especially the HARDOX wear plate in the region of Western Africa. The company’s most recent investment was an Ermaksan Power-Bend 3100 X 600 Ton press brake.

We provided a customized solution with its modern and functional design according to the customer's request in Burkina-Faso. So, we have produced their special 600 ton by 3-meter press brake to meet all the needs of professionals in the mining, building and private sector.
