Najran Cement

Highly Engaged Employees

Najran Cement Company was established in 2005 as a Saudi Closed Joint Stock Company with a paid up capital of SR 1,150 million. The objective was to be a main supplier of cement in the southern region and an important exporter to Yemen. Locating its cement plant and facilities close to Najran city will greatly contribute to the fast development of... the region. The Company has a quarry license from Ministry of Petroleum and Minerals of 30 sq km, endowed with huge deposits of Limestone, Clay, Sandstone and Gypsum that are sufficient for more than 100 years. The plant was initially planned as a single integrated unit of 6000 tpd of clinker at Sultana, around 240 km North East of Najran at the tip of the Empty Quarter desert. As the project moved along decision was taken to expand the clinker plant to 9000 tpd, by adding one more line of 3000 tpd at Sultana to make full use of vast raw material deposits. This was supplemented by a standalone grinding unit of 2.0 million tpa capacity at Aakfa, 70 kms to the West of Najran on the main highway to Asir region. The Plant started its commercial production during January 2009 and having a total production capacity of 3.0 million tons of clinker and grinding of 4.1 million tons of cement annually. The Company has its own captive power plants, water treatment plants and housing complexes at both the facilities. The technical setup represents the most prudent mix of technology, dependability and accreditation.Read More
