Zamil Steel has won a contract to manufacture Asias largest Pre-Engineered Steel Building for Singapores new Aviation Exhibition Center for a total value of SAR 22.5 million (USD 6 million). The project was secured by Zamil Steel Vietnam and will be completed, exported and assembled in an eight month timeframe in order to host the Singapore International Air Show 2008.
According to Adnan A. Al Mansour, Executive Vice President, Zamil Steel, this project demonstrates the trust in our brand and the confidence in the ability of Zamil Steel Vietnam to undertake large-scale projects, which in this case will serve Asias largest annual aerospace and defense event.
This export contract is a clear endorsement of our engineering and manufacturing capabilities and underscores the high regard for Zamil Steel Vietnam in its ability to provide tailored solutions within stringent deadlines and in line with specific safety and functionality requirements, he said.
Boasting a 72 meter clear span, the scope of work includes engineering, fabrication, delivery and installation. It will also feature Zamil Steels ultimate MaxSEAM roofing system - which through a 74-meter long non-overlapping single high-rib panel will ensure complete waterproofing of the colossal structure.
Zamil Steel Vietnam is also using the latest international design codes and is also providing the client with cost benefits resulting from an economy of scale associated with advanced and efficient production facilities.
The Singapore Aviation Exhibition Center will be built on a 40,000 square meter site in Singapores Changi East site and is estimated to cost around SAR 150 million (USD 40 million). The completed complex will comprise a purpose-built exhibition hall, adjoining apron space for static aircraft displays, a demonstration site with a natural terrain setting, chalets and other facilities.
Zamil Steel Vietnam is supported by a network of 17 Asian offices as well as by Zamil Steels factories, facilities and capabilities in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and China. With current export business accounting for 45% of overall production, its pre-engineered steel buildings are used in numerous industrial, commercial, recreational and multi-purpose applications, including factories, exhibition halls, shopping centers, sport complexes and aircraft hangars.
