Founded as SSE in 1994 by Gert Bezuidenhout, the company began with
a bold vision to create a wide range of industrial products and solutions
tailored to the realities of Southern Africa. What began as a small operation
quickly grew into a respected national enterprise, earning credibility for its
technical expertise and reliability.
In March 2023, following a strategic unbundling and restructuring, the
company rebranded as Interlynx-SA, with a renewed focus on becoming the
highly trusted industrial product supplier backed by in-depth engineering
expertise. This repositioning allowed it to broaden its portfolio while retaining
its hallmark focus on rugged, engineered reliability.
Technical excellence, innovation and reliability
Interlynx-SA operates from its headquarters in Centurion, supported by a
network of carefully selected engineering system integrators across southern
Africa. The company is lean with a dedicated team of 23 professionals, many
of whom have been with the organisation for more than 25 years.
They bring with them deep technical knowledge, much of it based on
the design of military-grade equipment. Most of the company engineers
developed their expertise in the military and aerospace industries,
environments renowned for highly reliable systems. Their expertise
directly shapes product development and service delivery, ensuring
solutions that are robust and reliable, even under the most challenging
conditions. This concentration of experience forms the backbone of the
company’s strength.
A holistic approach to industrial solutions
Interlynx-SA defines itself not as a “box mover”, but as an engineering driven
solutions partner. While its business model has shifted toward providing well-
integration and lifecycle service. The company carefully chooses its portfolio
to balance breadth with technical depth, ensuring that every offering is
specialised and interoperable.
Testing for industrial strength
The Interlynx-SA culture has always prioritised ruggedness, reliability and
performance under extreme conditions. This has influenced every aspect
of the company’s approach, from product design and selection to testing
and qualification. New designs undergo exhaustive MIL-SPEC processes that
include electromagnetic interference (EMI) testing, high/low temperature
validation, shock and vibration resilience, and beta field testing in live
customer applications.
