Construction Products Holding Company (CPC) is set to build another industrial complex to meet growing demand from an unprecedented construction boom in the region.

CPC's new investment is in the Dammam Industrial Zone where a 600,000 sq m area will be developed into an integrated complex consisting of an electric cables factory, a construction steel factory, float glass factory, ready-mix concrete plant, precast concrete plant, transportation company, warehouses and housing & offices facilities.

When completed, it will be CPC's fourth industrial complex and the third largest, said Dr Faysal Alaquil, director, Business Development and CPC official spokesperson.

'It will have the most advanced equipment and machinery so as to meet the great demand of construction projects in the eastern region,' he observed.

According to Alaquil, the CPC presently has industrial complexes in Jeddah, Bahra and Riyadh.

'Our Dammam industrial complex is the fourth for CPC and the third in terms of size and it is in line with our development plan to extend our reach across Saudi Arabia with 'one-stop shops' offering building and construction materials straight from our factories,' he added.

Alaquil said that CPC's mission statement was to give construction companies and contractors convenient access to its various products of the highest quality standards.

'Success in this regard has motivated us to build more industrial complexes, especially in view of the unprecedented upswing in construction of giant projects in various areas of the Kingdom,' he added.-TradeArabia News Service
