01 / OUR COMPANY

A family beginning.
A regional ambition.

First Wave Engineering Limited designs and implements hydraulic systems and distributes hydraulic parts across East Africa from our base in Nairobi, Kenya.

Founded in 2014 as a family project with two people, the company has grown to 68 permanent employees. That growth reflects our continuing commitment to practical engineering, responsive support and the needs of customers who depend on hydraulic equipment.

We bring system design, implementation and component sourcing into one conversation. Whether a customer is developing a new machine, replacing a worn component or planning an equipment upgrade, we work to understand the application before recommending a way forward.

Our ambition extends beyond established markets. We are continually looking for new markets, distribution relationships and opportunities to support industries across the region.
