Six years ago, AlRashid Abetong (ARA), a major precast concrete company in Saudi-Arabia since 1977, acquired the operations of Mabco. The marriage of AlRashid Abetong (ARA) and Mabco turned out a happy one and today, the company is stronger than ever. After continous growth, ARA opened in June 2007 a new hollow core factory with the impressive capacity to produce one million square meters of hollow core slabs in various thicknesses yearly.
