About Terne Solutions

Named for the long term

Terne was founded in Cape Town in 2020 as SR Engineered and rebranded at the end of 2024. The name comes from the Latin sempiterne — perpetual, everlasting — and the change from a founder’s initials to a team name was deliberate: this is built to outlast any one person in it.

We are a team of 14: design, electrical, machine shop, laser cutting, fabrication, assembly and site teams. With every skill under one roof, one team takes your project from first sketch to a running machine and stays on after.
