NEOM Builds SAR700 Million Concrete Factory for THE LINE

NEOM has signed a partnership agreement with a leading Saudi construction and engineering company to build and operate a SAR700 million ready-mix concrete facility.

In a press release issued today by NEOM, it said that the multi-plant concrete-producing factory serves in the construction of THE LINE, the linear city currently under development in NEOM.

NEOM CEO Nadhmi Al-Nasr said: “The delivery of these concrete plants is another testament to the rapid progress happening at NEOM. It also underscores the strength of the Kingdom’s construction industry, and the critical role local partnerships play in delivering this transformational project efficiently and sustainably.”

As an advanced concrete production facility, the factory’s plants will incorporate carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technology and energy-saving solutions, with the majority of output servicing the construction of THE LINE.

With concrete being a core material for THE LINE’s substructure and superstructure, the new factory has mobilized a fleet of support vehicles ready to commence operations next month. Peak operations are anticipated to start in 2025, and the facility is expected to generate over 500 local jobs.

"The establishment of the plant comes as construction on THE LINE progresses quickly. Work on the foundation piles has begun, with nearly 1,000 out of over 30,000 piles placed so far," reads the release.
