NAPCO reveals strategy to increase exports following recent expansion initiative

Following the announcement of its recent expansion, National Aluminium Products Company SAOG ( NAPCO ), one of the leading extruders of aluminum profiles in the GCC, has unveiled its plans to increase its exports by accelerating its production. The company, which has a current production capacity between 18,000 and 20,000 metric tonnes, aims to diversify its products along with the markets through a phased growth strategy in sales and marketing. The move is attributed to an increase in demand for NAPCO 's products due to its excellent quality and history of reliability.

NAPCO 's exports in the first half (H1) of 2014 experienced a significant growth in percentage and quantity compared to the same period in 2013. In addition, there was an increase of 15 per cent in its production for the H1 of 2014 in comparison to the previous year. Even though Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East are NAPCO 's main export markets, the GCC region accounted for the most of its exports in 2013.

Robert Holtkamp, General Manager, NAPCO , said: " NAPCO witnessed a major growth in its exports in 2013 as because of the construction boom in the GCC, having recovered from the global financial crisis. This growth has been a key driver for us to expand our exports along with production. We have obtained agreements with several system suppliers to go ahead with our growth strategies. Moreover, the plans are underway to bring new technology by 2015 to further enhance production."

The company offers a wide range of Aluminium profile extrusions in different finishes that suits modern design specifications and has left an indelible mark on the architectural landscape of the Middle East.
