TNagadi Preformed Concrete Factory is boosting its presence in the kingdom by expanding its facilities at Yanbu and making major investments in new machinery and equipment, in a bid to cater to the increased demand for its products in Rabigh, Jeddah, Makkah and Madinah.

As part of its expansion drive, the company has also modernised its existing machinery and bought new equipment for its factory at Riyadh plant.
“Business has been looking up for us over the past year with our performance levels and sales having increased and with the construction sector booming in Saudi Arabia, we expect this trend to continue for a while yet,” company area manager K Gopalakrishnan tells Gulf Construction.
The company has three modern production units in Saudi Arabia covering a total area of 300,000 sq m, including a 40,000 sq m plant in Riyadh, a 200,000 sq m plant in Yanbu as well as a 60,000 sq m facility in the Light Industrial Park at Madinat Yanbu Al Sinayah. It has an automatic block production plant and a pipe plant from Omag Germany as well as a precast plant also from Germany, equipped with all modern handling systems including several gantry cranes, tower cranes, mobile cranes, many overhead cranes, and a steam-curing system.
“With our Yanbu plant being very centrally located, we can ensure more cost-effective proposals to contractors and timely deliveries of our concrete products at construction sites in the region,” says Gopalakrishnan. “Over the next year, we plan to invest further in sophisticated machinery, as we have a huge area to receive the products and ample space to stock finished products at this plant. We are also currently focusing on enhancing the quality of our products so that we can further increase our sales figures.”
An ISO 9001-certified company, T Nagadi manufactures a wide range of concrete products in compliance with Saudi and international standards. It has a diverse product portfolio that includes reinforced concrete pipes ranging from 300 mm to 3,600 mm inner diameter; PVC/ PE (polyvinylchloride and polyethylene) and GRP (glass-reinforced plastic)-lined reinforced concrete pipes (300 mm to 3,600 mm inner diameter); PVC/PE and GRP-lined jacking pipes (300 mm to 3,600 mm inner diameter); PVC/PE and GRP-lined sewer manhole system; telecommunication manholes and handholes; and electrical manhole systems.
It is also involved in the production and installation of fence wall panels; interlocking blocks and pavers in different shapes and colours; beautification products such as floor and cross walls; New Jersey road barriers and wheel stoppers; supply and installation of precast buildings and the construction of medium-size conventional commercial and residential buildings. 
The company’’s high-quality products and dependable customer service, backed by technical collaboration with European companies, has helped it to participate in many projects within Saudi Arabia as well as in the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Oman. Among its recent projects is a SR150 million ($40.05 million) job involving the supply of lined jacking pipes of 500 mm to 3,000 mm inner diameter and GRP-lined manhole elements to the Saudi contracting firm Al Mabani General Contractors for its ongoing projects for the Jeddah Sewerage and Water Authority. The delivery of products commenced a few months ago with completion of the project expected in three years. Another notable deal is for GRP-lined manhole elements worth SR100 million. Around 40 per cent of deliveries required by the Civil Works Company, the contractor or its subcontractors, have already been completed over the past two years with the remaining to be delivered soon.
Established in 1977 and owned by Tarik Mohamed Nagadi, the company is 100 per cent Saudi-owned and staffed with around 300 employees of different nationalities. Apart from its three production facilities, T Nagadi also has a sales office in Jeddah.
