The Omega Story

Omega Fibreglass was established in 1999 in Johannesburg, South Africa by Thomas Eich, who was taught the skills required in the composite industry by his father Peter Eich. Peter is a passionate glider pilot and ran his own successful composite company for many years, before joining Thomas at Omega Fibre.

Thomas has enjoyed a long history in motorsports winning many National and Regional Championships in Superbikes, Trials, Enduro and Rally racing. This has allowed Thomas to both promote and innovate his products in race-proven environments, ensuring that competitors have only the best to perform at their optimum peak. Thomas has been featured in many publications both locally and internationally, due to his passion and knowledge of his chosen field of interest.

2021 marks a new exciting era for Omega, not only with its new extensive range of carbon products, but with a partner to the Omega Team. Brendon van Niekerk has been around motorcycles since his feet could just touch the ground on his Italjet 50cc MX bike. His passion for motorcycling brings along with it a wealth of experience. 

Omega has established itself as a premier manufacturer of quality composite accessories, that cover a broad range of motorcycles and motorcycle disciplines. Omega Fibre has grown its worldwide market to a point that the facility in South Africa is no longer able to keep up with international demand, thereby facilitating an exciting collaboration with Tekmo Racing. Omega Fibre and Tekmo Racing share an ethos to manufacture high quality pre-preg carbon fibre parts, utilising the latest autoclave technology.
