The Plastics Centre SKZ and ALKOBLAN PIPES of Saudi Arabia have entered into a strategic partnership in the field of pipe certification and product monitoring with the aim of further optimising quality standards for plastic pipe systems. This cooperation strengthens the global competitive position of both companies and sets new standards in the production, monitoring and certification of plastic piping systems.
ALKOBLAN PIPES, an established manufacturer of PPR pipes and fittings for over 30 years, offers a wide range of plastic piping solutions used primarily in the water supply industry. The company has continuously expanded its production capacity to meet the demands of the industry and the growing expectations of its customers. Through its partnership with SKZ, ALKOBLAN benefits from the globally recognised SKZ quality mark, which underlines the reliability and quality of its products.
Quality control is crucial for high standards
“The cooperation with SKZ is an important step for us to establish our products internationally as quality solutions and to further strengthen the trust of our customers," explains ABDULLELAH ABDULAAL, R&D Manager of ALKOBLAN PIPES. The partnership with SKZ began in the spring of 2024 with an approval test focused on meeting high quality and safety standards. During a visit by Jochen Wissgott, an expert from SKZ's Pipe Systems Division, the requirements for ALKOBLAN's in-house production control were thoroughly checked. Particular attention was paid to hygienic quality aspects to ensure that raw materials and end products are protected from contamination. This quality control is crucial for the high standards that ALKOBLAN and SKZ want to ensure together.
With this partnership, ALKOBLAN and the SKZ aim to establish a long-term and successful cooperation. The SKZ certification not only enables ALKOBLAN to stay at the forefront of industry standards and quality requirements, but also to further improve its product portfolio and open up new markets worldwide. “Quality assurance of plastic pipe systems used for the transport of drinking water and other liquids as well as gases under pressure is essential to ensure safety, durability, compliance with standards and cost-effectiveness. It minimizes risks, protects the environment and ensures that the pipes reliably fulfill their function over their planned service life,” concludes Jochen Wissgott.
