Amiantit Oman Concrete Products LLC has inaugurated its new manufacturing facility for engineered precast concrete products at Rusayl Industrial Estate in Muscat.
The facility will manufacture prestressed steel cylinder pipes for high pressure transmission of potable water, precast box culverts for roads and bridges, precast concrete manholes for sewer and storm water applications, reinforced concrete jacking pipes for micro tunneling used for sewer transport and sleeve applications and reinforced concrete pipes for storm-water drainage applications.
The advanced facility at the plant reengineers the conventional process to save time and cost, complementing in country value and creating significant job opportunities for Omanis.
The prestressed steel cylinder pipes manufactured by the company are designed for use in high pressure water transmission networks and have the potential to significantly reduce import of expensive metallic pipes currently being used for the same application in Oman and the region.
The precast engineered box culverts will provide substantial progress on project timelines and savings by reducing dependence of imported workforce and would provide value added jobs for nationals in the factory.
