TradeArabia reports:
Gulf Extrusions, one of the largest aluminium extrusion plants in the Gulf, is in the final stages of implementing Six Sigma at its production plant in Dubai.
The move is in line with Gulf Extrusions’ strategy of achieving continuous process improvements and is expected to help the company consolidate its position in the highly competitive regional market.
“By introducing statistical process control across the plant we aim to further boost our business infrastructure and take our product quality to new heights. The pursuit of such an integrated approach towards quality is certain to help Gulf Extrusions reinforce its commitment to customer satisfaction, and in the process enabling us to maximise demand for our high quality aluminium products across the Middle East,” said general manager, Gulf Extrusions, Modar Al Mekdad.
This move is prompted by the increasing demand for aluminium (sic) extrusion in the Middle East region, specifically KSA, Qatar, UAE and Kuwait. The demand is seen to reach an average of 550,000 metric tons per annum by the end of 2008.
It’s good to know that Gulf Extrusions believes in Six Sigma to help them address this demand.
