Stevin Rock Selects CDE Wash Plant for World's Largest Limestone Quarry

Stevin Rock, a major aggregates and mining company, has chosen CDE to supply a 1000 tonnes per hour (tph) advanced limestone wash plant for its operations in the UAE. This plant is designed to support production at what is described as the world's largest limestone quarry.

This development signifies continued investment in large-scale quarrying infrastructure within the GCC, particularly in the UAE. The deployment of a 1000tph plant suggests robust demand for high-quality aggregates, which are crucial for ongoing construction and infrastructure projects. It highlights a trend towards adopting advanced processing technologies to optimize quarry output and material quality.

While CDE is the direct supplier, this substantial order for a high-capacity wash plant could stimulate related demand for heavy earthmoving equipment, spare parts, and associated services from local dealers. Dealers in the UAE and wider GCC region should monitor for potential ancillary equipment sales opportunities and maintenance contracts arising from such large-scale quarry upgrades.

The UAE continues to be a focal point for significant industrial and infrastructure development. Stevin Rock's investment in expanding its quarrying capacity underscores the foundational role of raw materials in sustaining this growth. This project reinforces the UAE's position as a hub for large-scale mining and aggregates production in the GCC.
