Cut. Built.
Installed.

Process

How a Basai project runs.

01

Brief

We sit down with you — in person or on a call — to understand the space, the brand and the deadline.

02

Design

Concept sketches, 3D visuals and material samples. Nothing gets cut before you approve it.

03

Fabricate

Built in our Kigali workshop on CNC, laser and plasma. Every piece is checked before it leaves.

04

Install

Our own team installs on site, cleans up, and hands over a finished, working result.

Trust

Why clients keep coming back.

Basai handled our storefront signage from sketch to install. Clean work, on time, and they came back to tune the lighting.

Retail client · Kigali

We needed a laser-cut screen no one else in the country was making. They built samples, adjusted twice, and delivered.

Architect · Kigali

Solid workshop, solid team. They think like fabricators and designers — which is rare.
