Alaa Industrial Equipment Factory, AFI, claims it is the leader in industrial equipment supplies in the GCC, especially in hydraulics.

"AFI's growing presence in the Middle East is only a testimony to its perseverance and commitment to a holistic approach towards industrial equipment supplies," a company spokesman said.

AFI has its head office in Dammam and branches all over Saudi Arabia. "AFI-Riyadh has the capability to offer complete hydraulic solutions to their customer.

It has the technical resources within their workshop to meet with any customer need.

"AFI-Riyadh not only sells hydraulic equipment, such as pumps, motors, cylinders, and valves but also complete equipment overhaul service with everything tested and guaranteed," said the spokesman who described AFI as a "one-stop hydraulic shop".

AFI-Riyadh offers complete shutdown and turnaround services and has extensive experience with explosion-proof systems in the petrochemical industries.

It also performs flushing and contamination-monitoring using sophisticated laser-equipped units.

"Having branches all over the Kingdom enables each branch to source materials within hours, if they run out of stock- No more unhappy customers due to non-availability of critical stock," the spokesman said.

Giving other details, he said AFI's manufacturing set up in Riyadh could meet almost all hydraulic cylinder needs of customers.

In addition, it could offer a service package that included repair, overhaul, maintenance or replacement of hydraulic equipment.

AFI-Riyadh has its core competency in hydraulic-related fields with experienced and technically qualified personnel to provide solutions to problems, he said.

Added the spokesman: "AFI's ingrained corporate culture of customer satisfaction as its core philosophy has given it an impeccable reputation on quality and reliability in the marketplace.

No wonder AFI has become the number one company in the GCC for hydraulics and industrial solutions."
