QGPC
(Qatar German Pipes Co) successfully completed their trial production on 30th
Sep 2011.
QGPC was
established by virtue of Ministerial decree no. 2121 licensing industrial
project issued by the Ministry of Industry and Energy and a Commercial license
no. 37683. It is owned 95% by Qatari part and 5% by German part. After
establishment QGPC the next step was to choose the company that has the
technology. Meyer Rohr + Schacht (MRS) was chosen. MRS is the forerunner in
manufacturing polymer concrete jacking pipes globally. An agreement was signed
with MRS to use the technology and to supply the equipments and machinery
required for the establishment of the factory. The project has acquired the
support and financing of the Qatar Development Bank.
The product
Polymer concrete pipes use Micro-Tunneling technology and it is eco friendly.
No waste is left after its manufacture. No harmful chemicals are used. The
great leap in the development in Qatar especially and in the GCC countries in
general and the true directions of the State in supporting and expanding the
base of small and medium scale industries are the factors that helped make up
our mind to take the steps required to establish the project that can
contribute to filling the need for the product by providing it locally rather
than importing from foreign countries.
All of our
products made of PIPE GREEN™ are certified and meet the requirements of German
Standard DIN 54815, European standard EN 19636 as well as US standard ASTM D
6783-05
