About HaMachresha

The company

HaMachresha Metal Works is one of the leading companies in Israel in the design, manufacture and supply of heavy steel formwork for high-density residential construction, towers and complex projects.

The company specializes in engineering and manufacturing steel formwork systems that adapt to changing requirements, to combined claddings and to work on a large scale. Over the years HaMachresha has taken part in some of the largest and most complex projects in Israel, with strict attention to precision, safety, standards and schedules.

It works with construction contractors, developers, engineers and project managers on residential, commercial, office, tower and public projects, with the emphasis on solving engineering problems rather than only supplying an off-the-shelf product.

Our story

HaMachresha was founded in 1969 by Avraham, who immigrated to Israel from Persia and fought in the War of Independence. The business began as a metal workshop that repaired ploughs (in Hebrew, machresha means "plough") and grew over the years together with the construction industry.

In the 1990s Golan Zolicha, the second generation of the family, joined and led the company into deep specialization in metal and steel structures.

Since 2010 the company has specialized in manufacturing Baranovich formwork and advanced steel formwork solutions, and has grown steadily since. In 2020 Dor Zolicha, the third generation, joined the company.

Today HaMachresha has a professional head-office team and a skilled production workforce. Golan Zolicha is the CEO and owner.

Standards and safety

Work at HaMachresha follows strict standards and high professional norms: worker safety on site, quality control throughout production, and professional responsibility on large projects. This allows ongoing work with large construction companies, public bodies and national projects.
