Projects Flagship Case Study

Turnkey Concrete Batching Plant – Saudi Arabia

A complete design-build-deliver project providing a ready-to-operate concrete batching facility tailored for Saudi site conditions.

Location: KSA Scope: Full Turnkey Delivery: Fast-Track

The Challenge

The client required a fully operational concrete batching plant to support critical infrastructure works in Saudi Arabia. The project faced several operational hurdles:

  • Harsh climatic conditions (extreme heat, dust, wind).
  • Fast-track delivery requirement to meet construction schedules.
  • Limited availability of skilled plant operators at start-up.
  • Compliance with Saudi safety and environmental regulations.
"The client did not want equipment only — they required a working plant ready to produce concrete from day one."

Project Objectives

To deliver a robust, easy-to-operate facility capable of stable production in a desert environment.

Turnkey Delivery

Complete plant on a single contract basis.

Saudi-Proof Design

Engineered for high ambient temperatures and dust.

Stable Production

Ensure consistent output and repeatability.

Future Flexibility

Enable future expansion and relocation if required.

Engineering Challenges Solved

Challenge 1

Saudi Environment

High temperatures and dust affect equipment reliability and control system electronics.

Our Solution:

The plant was specified with heat-resistant components, protected enclosures for electrical panels, and dust-minimizing transfer points to ensure longevity.

Challenge 2

Rapid Mobilization

The client needed production readiness quickly to meet their own project deadlines.

Our Solution:

A modular, pre-engineered layout allowed parallel civil and mechanical works, significantly reducing the overall execution schedule.

Challenge 3

Operational Simplicity

Operators needed a system that was easy to run and maintain without complex training.

Our Solution:

An intuitive control system with clear batching logic, automated reporting, and alarm management was implemented for ease of use.

Process Architecture

Aggregates Storage

Bins & Belts

Aggregate Weighing
