Major Contract for Steel Mill in Egypt
The KSB Group has booked an order for the supply of industrial pumps to a steel mill in Cairo, Egypt.
Pumps from the ETANORM-R series are part of a supply package totalling 100 KSB pumps for a major contract destined for a steel mill in Sadat City, Egypt.
More than 100 pump sets will be used as cooling water and descaling pumps in steel production. The order value totals several million euros.
The customer is an Egyptian steel manufacturer who is building a new steel mill including a 165-t electric arc and a 165-t ladle furnace as well as a 6-strand billet caster in Sadat City – half way between Cairo and Alexandria.
The positive experience with KSB products and services gained in other plants prompted the plant operator to place this order with KSB. Delivery will be effected in two lots and completed by February 2009.
