SaudiBuild 2004 will be the launch pad for Al Kifah Batching Plant’s (KBP) latest line of machinery – including pan mixers, twin shaft mixers and transit mixers – where its entire range will be promoted through video presentations and demonstrations.

“We are the only firm in the Middle East to produce this range of equipment,” says Omar El Shalakany, deputy general manager for the Riyadh-based firm. “Production of these machines has just started and we expect to have them on the market within two to three months.”
KBP, located in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, is the only manufacturer of mobile, portable and static concrete batching and mixer plants and accessories such as complete aggregate sand washing plants, cement silos, radial and static conveyors and electric control panels in the entire Middle East.
KBP has plants operating in most Middle East countries and has maintained its reputation by adopting the latest innovative design techniques allowing many combinations to suit customer’s specifications and environmental considerations.
The company’s plants are designed to be wet or dry or a combination of both.
“KBP also offers refurbishment of existing plants, bringing customers’ equipment to the same high standards that it achieves with its new equipment,” says Shalakany.
Its plant control systems can be supplied for manual operation or with the latest-technology computerised batching systems, tailored to suit customers’ requirements. Control cabins can be sited at mixer platform level or in a suitable position on the ground.
The only competition KBP faces is from foreign suppliers from Europe, US and South East Asia. Besides the Saudi market, the company has captured a niche market in the GCC and other Arab countries.
“Our quality production and simple inexpensive erection, has gained recognition in all the GCC states and neighbouring countries including Jordan, Syria, Egypt and Lebanon,” says Shalakany. “We offer quick after-sales service by our local resident and highly qualified technicians.
“Through hard work and commitment the company has succeeded in attaining high standards, and was awarded the ISO 9001 for quality.”
“With our highly qualified administrative and technical staff, we assure our valued customers top-quality products and services. The plants we have supplied and erected stand as proof of our expertise,” he adds.
