The establishment of this facility aligns with GF Piping Systems’ focus on expanding its manufacturing footprint to bring essential flow solutions closer to customers in the Middle East and Africa. The plant will manufacture HDPE and MDPE pipes, along with specialized piping solutions designed to meet the specific needs of the regional infrastructure market. It will support local projects that are in line with Egypt's national development objectives and be the gateway to Africa.
“Our expansion in Egypt reflects our commitment to serving this dynamic market with locally produced, high-quality solutions for water, gas, and energy infrastructure,” said Andreas Müller, GF CEO and interim President GF Piping Systems. “We look forward to working closely with Egypt Gas in bringing durable and sustainable systems to support essential infrastructure across the region.”
A Collaborative Effort for Local Development
The Cairo facility is the result of a strategic collaboration between GF Piping Systems, Egypt Gas, the largest gas distributor in Egypt, and Green Coast Enterprises, a private-sector leader in sustainable infrastructure. The partners aim to support local supply chains and bring advanced piping solutions to the Egyptian market.
Eng. Wael Gowayed, Chairman of Egypt Gas, commented, “We are pleased to see the completion of this facility, which will play a key role in fulfilling Egypt’s demand for high-quality, locally produced state-of-the-art flow solutions. We anticipate this plant will bring multiple economic and operational benefits, including local job creation and supply chain resilience.”
Mr. Mohammed Abdulghaffar Hussain, Executive Director of Green Coast Enterprises, added, “This new facility represents a commitment to long-term collaboration for sustainable development. Through this partnership with GF Piping Systems and Egypt Gas, we are building infrastructure that is not only functional but sustainable, aligning with Egypt’s goals for the future.”
Supporting Regional Infrastructure and Sustainability
Occupying a 25,000-square-meter site, the new Cairo plant is strategically located for efficient distribution across Egypt and the region. The facility will improve the reliability of the local supply chain, reduce lead times, and support the regional market with high-quality, durable flow solutions. By producing locally, GF Piping Systems aims to minimize the carbon footprint associated with international transport, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable practices.
