Nuova Fima for Saudi Ceramic

05/07/07 - - The doubling of production capacity at Saudi Ceramic (SCC), which commenced in 2005, continues.
The Saudi Arabian company, one of the oldest Middle Eastern ceramic producers, aims to reach an output of 32 million square meters by 2008.

The first phase of the project, completed in 2006, has made Saudi Ceramic one of the region’s largest quality porcelain tile producers, with an annual output of seven million square meters.

These objectives were obtained with the introduction of the most advanced production technologies, among which the Nuova Firma automated sorting lines with integrated packaging systems and automated palletizing robots, which load already packed tiles onto pallets, and Uniprintex, the new offset decoration process.
The Saudi company has recently ordered a seventh automated sorting line from Nuova Firma, made up of a Synthesis-90 sorting line with 10 stackers and a CPKS5/60 automatic packaging machine, as well as an Extrapack palletizing robot.
