Quality International, based in Sharjah's Hamriyah Free Zone, has reported the third shipment of the third Multi Effect Distillation (MED) evaporator for the Az-Zour North Independent Water and Power Project in Kuwait.

With this, the firm has crossed the half-way mark in the execution of its order from Sidem, France for the construction and delivery of a total of six MED evaporators.

These MED Evaporators – 54 m long x 33 m wide x 17 m tall and weighing 2750 MT each, are the biggest of their kind in the world to ever be constructed in a shop/yard & shipped to the project site.

“A logistical challenge in itself, this could only be achieved due to the availability of Quality International’s large water front facility at Phase I of Hamriyah Free Zone, Sharjah, UAE”, says Shashi Ramakrishnan, founder and managing director of Quality International.

“With successful completion of such large units, Quality International has further consolidated its position as a leading manufacturer of high metallurgy (duplex stainless steel, titanium) & critical equipment / modules globally,” Ramakrishnan added.

He  added that a world-class infrastructure of Hamriyah Free Zone coupled with the proactive and positive approach of its officials   was instrumental in not only the setting up of this unit but also the undertaking & delivering such a large and complex project.

Saud Salim Al Mazrouei, director of Hamriyah Free Zone Authority (HFZA) and Sharjah Airport International Free Zone (SAIF Zone) said:   “It is  always our goal to provide the best facilities and services to our investors. Quality International’s latest project is a milestone for HFZA and I wish all the best for Quality International and its future endeavours.” – TradeArabia News Service
