Als Emirates Ready Mix Concrete, one of the UAE’s leading producers and suppliers of high-quality ready-mix concrete, has announced the establishment of its first factory in Dubai, located within Dubai Industrial City—a major industrial and logistics destination under the TECOM Group.

The new factory, spanning over 160,000 square feet, marks a significant milestone in the company’s regional expansion and reinforces its commitment to supporting the UAE’s rapidly growing construction sector. Once operational in the third quarter of 2026, the facility will have a production capacity of up to 400 cubic meters of concrete per hour, positioning it among the most advanced concrete manufacturing sites in the country.

The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by Saud Abu Al-Shawareb, Executive Vice President of TECOM Group – Industrial Sector, representing Dubai Industrial City; Saif Mubarak Fadhel Al Mazrouei, Chairman of Bin Fadhel Holding; and Peter Celis, CEO of the Building Materials Division at Als Emirates Ready Mix Concrete, along with senior representatives from the UAE’s construction sector.

The state-of-the-art facility will include advanced administrative and operational infrastructure, integrating energy-efficient and sustainable technologies to optimize concrete production. This expansion highlights the company’s goal of strengthening national capabilities in line with the UAE’s “Project 300 Billion” strategy, the “Make it in the UAE” initiative, and Dubai’s D33 economic agenda.

Speaking on behalf of Dubai Industrial City, Saud Abu Al-Shawareb emphasized the project’s alignment with the UAE’s long-term vision:

“We are delighted that Als Emirates Ready Mix Concrete is expanding its operations nationwide through its new plant in Dubai Industrial City. This initiative enhances national capabilities for producing ready-mix concrete to the highest standards and supports sustainable construction practices across the region, in line with the UAE’s industrial and economic growth strategies.”

He added that Dubai Industrial City’s strategic infrastructure, connectivity, and industrial ecosystem continue to attract major players and foster innovation within the UAE’s manufacturing and logistics landscape.

Peter Celis, CEO of the Building Materials Division at Als Emirates Ready Mix Concrete, described the new plant as a pivotal step in the company’s growth journey:

“Laying the foundation stone for our first Dubai plant marks the beginning of a new era for Als Emirates Ready Mix Concrete. Our investment in modern technology and strategically located industrial facilities enhances our ability to provide efficient, sustainable, and high-quality concrete solutions for projects of all sizes, driving innovation in the construction industry.”

Als Emirates Ready Mix Concrete, part of ALCS Group, has earned a strong reputation for its technical expertise, operational excellence, and focus on quality. The company’s expansion into Dubai will enable it to better serve the UAE’s booming construction sector, leveraging Dubai Industrial City’s prime location near Jebel Ali Port, Al Maktoum International Airport, and the Etihad Rail freight terminal for seamless logistics and distribution.

It serves six key industrial sectors—basic metals, machinery, natural metals, food and beverages, transportation, and chemicals—and plays a central role in shaping the future of manufacturing and logistics in the Middle East.
