Niegria will soon become the hub for the exportation of ceramic tiles and sanitary wares, an industrialist has said.
Dr. Khater Massaad, Chief Executive Officer of CDK Integrated Industries, said Nigeria would be exporting the products to other African countries and Europe.
CDK, he said, would open its state-of the-art porcelain and ceramic factory next month.
He spoke with reporters at the factory in Sagamu, Ogun State.
Massaad said the factory is built on a million square metres of land to meet global ceramics and sanitary wares industry demand in Africa and Europe.
“Our aim is to produce high quality ceramic tiles and sanitary wares products. Everyone is in need of high quality products. We aim to meet the best quality in the world, matching and possibly surpassing the American and European standards,” Massaad said.
Noting that the firm’s vision is to be number one in Africa, in terms of product quality and pricing, Massaad said the company was engaging Nigerians who are buying into the vision of the company as a professional organisation with global best practices.
Over 65 million square meters of ceramic tiles are imported into Nigeria, according to Ceramic World review magazine published in Italy. And CDK Integrated Industries’ plan is to help Nigeria address this challenge by producing the highest quality of tiles and ceramic products that will shift the world focus to Nigeria in the area of ceramics and sanitary wares.
The firm’s factory will be producing 500,000 pieces annually of several models of European designer collections, using the best technology, best raw materials, highest standards, world class fittings and soft closing hinges, amongst others.
CDK Integrated Industries Porcelain and Ceramic tiles factory will be producing 60X60 CM, 30×60 CM and 40x40CM polished, glazed, glazed polished and soluble salt tiles with superior quality, using state of the art technology and latest digital printing equipment.
On employment opportunities, Massaad stated that the company will be employing over a thousand Nigerians to be part of its dream of a world class factory to contribute to the development of the economy, adding that in the long run the idea is to eliminate the massive importation of the item from Italy and other countries to give value to the Nigerian economy.
With active contribution to the construction of over 50 factories across the world, Dr. Massaad concluded that the investment in Shagamu, Ogun State, Nigeria will transform the economy of the communities and the country.
He added that the firm is working on obtaining the necessary certification from the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON).
