New Production Facility Inaugurated at Our Gamasa Plant
New production facility inaugurated at Egypt Globe Group's Gamasa plant — expanded capacity for salt processing, blending and bagging.
New production facility inaugurated at our Gamasa plant
Egypt Globe Group has commissioned a new production facility at its Gamasa plant on the Egyptian Mediterranean coast, adding capacity for salt processing, custom blending and 50 kg / 1 MT FIBC bagging.
What's new
Why Gamasa
Gamasa sits 60 km from Damietta port and 130 km from Port Said East, making it ideal for sea-salt processing destined for Mediterranean and African markets. The plant's proximity to Bardawil's sea-salt feedstock and Damietta's loading berths cuts inland trucking costs by ~25% versus a Cairo-based facility.
Capacity in numbers
| Metric | Pre-expansion | Post-expansion |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly processing | 30,000 MT | 50,000 MT |
| Bagging lines | 2 | 4 |
| Lab capacity | Daily QC | Per-batch CoA |
| Lead time (typical) | 4–6 weeks | 2–4 weeks |
What this means for buyers
Faster lead times, tighter spec control through on-site blending, and lower delivered cost on Mediterranean / African shipments. The expanded capacity is already booked through Q3 with confirmed tender awards from European de-icing buyers and East African chlor-alkali buyers.

Quality at the Core — verified supply from Egypt Globe Group
The analysis above is published by the export desk of Egypt Globe Group, an Egyptian B2B commodity house incorporated in 2014 with an internal Quality Assurance division at its nucleus. Across salt, cement and clinker, fertilizers, chemicals, industrial minerals, agro and metals, every lot is laboratory-tested at the port of loading and released on a Certificate of Analysis before the Bill of Lading; independent inspection by TÜV Austria, SGS, Intertek or Bureau Veritas is available on every consignment, and a lot outside specification is rejected at the port rather than renegotiated.
- Zero tolerance on specification deviation
- No re-grading or renegotiation after the fact — an out-of-spec lot does not load
- Per-lot laboratory verification
- Certificate of Analysis or Mill Test Certificate issued before the Bill of Lading
- Independent third-party inspection
- ISO/IEC 17020 / 17025 bodies at any of seven Egyptian ports; retained samples held 90 days
- Laycan and grading discipline
- Documented Notice of Readiness and Statement of Facts; sieve, assay and moisture verified per lot
- Quality & compliance — the QA charter, inspection partners and destination conformity programmes
