MARCEGAGLIA Gulf is looking to boost its share of the steel market in the Middle East, having completed two successful years of operations since its launch in Qatar in 2007.

The Doha-based firm is part of Marcegaglia, a global leader in steel processing industry with a yearly output of 5.3 million tonnes. With specialist knowledge in the building and construction sector, the company offers technologically-advanced and fully-developed end products.
Marcegaglia Gulf’s logistics and warehousing facilities are strategically located near the main civil and industrial construction hubs such as Doha city and industrial area, Al Khor, Messaieed and Ras Laffan industrial cities. The company distributes a wide range of steel systems for construction – manufactured by the parent company’s building division – in Qatar and the rest of the Gulf.
These include scaffolding, formwork, storage systems, metal decks, corrugated sheets, sandwich panels and guardrails.
Marcegaglia Gulf has quickly become a well respected name in the market, combining quality and technologically-advanced solutions in terms of material and equipment with the provision of highly-qualified engineering and application services, thanks to the competence and experience of its international staff of sales engineers, technicians, site personnel and crew, says a company spokesman.
Within a span of two years, Marcegaglia Gulf has already provided its steel systems and its application and installation services to major projects in Qatar including The Pearl-Qatar, The Gate and the Platinum Tower projects in the civil sector, and the Shell GTL (gas to liquids) project, Dolphin Energy, Qatargas, Qatalum, Qapco, Qatofin and Qafco plants expansion projects in the industrial and oil and gas sector.

Its daily production equals 5,000 km of welded tubes, open profiles, drawn tubes, panels, coils, strips and sheets made from carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminium.
