Swiss-based GF Piping Systems, Egypt’s Gas Company, and the UAE’s Green Coast Enterprises have inaugurated a state-of-the-art piping solutions plant in Cairo, valued at EGP 1 billion. This facility, spanning 25,000 square meters, is poised to significantly boost Egypt’s infrastructure capabilities and serve as a critical hub for the Middle East and Africa.
The plant, strategically located in the Greater Cairo area, is set to manufacture High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Medium-Density Polyethylene (MDPE) pipes, tailored to meet the region’s infrastructure needs. This initiative aligns with Egypt’s national development goals, aiming to streamline supply chains, reduce lead times, and deliver durable, high-quality flow solutions to support local projects.
Mohammed Abdulghaffar Hussain, Executive Director of Green Coast Enterprises, emphasized the plant’s role in sustainable development, stating, “This facility embodies our commitment to sustainable infrastructure that aligns with Egypt’s vision for the future.” He highlighted the partnership’s potential to build robust and environmentally friendly infrastructure across the region.
GF Piping Systems, a division of Georg Fischer AG, is renowned globally for its innovative piping solutions, while Egypt Gas stands as the country’s largest gas distributor. Their collaboration with Green Coast Enterprises, a leader in sustainable infrastructure from the UAE, underscores a shared vision of regional growth and environmental responsibility.
By producing pipes locally, the plant aims to minimize the carbon footprint associated with international transportation, further solidifying GF Piping Systems’ commitment to sustainability. Wael Gowayed, Chairman of Egypt Gas, noted the economic and operational benefits expected from the plant, includes job creation and enhanced supply chain resilience.
