FLSmidth has announced that it has won two contracts from Egypt’s Misr Cement Company (Qena) for the provision of equipment to a plant in Luxor that was originally supplied by FLSmidth. The plant is located some 45 km from Luxor. FLSmidth’s scope of supply includes an ATOX® coal mill, an OK® vertical cement mill, Pfister® weighing and dosing systems, MAAG Gear® reducers and Airtech filters.
“We are very happy to supply this additional equipment to an existing customer with whom we have cooperated since 1999. Our newly established Products & Upgrades group will be responsible for supplying the equipment – an offering which we are currently expanding,” said Per Mejnert Kristensen, President of the FLSmidth Cement Division.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum, Ahmed Heikal, Chairman and Founder of Qalaa Holdings, noted the challenges and opportunities that Egypt currently faces.
