Mueller Industries, Inc., a global leader in the manufacturing and distribution of plastic fittings, pipe and valves, refrigeration valves and fittings and more, with operations in the US, Canada, Mexico, China and Great Britain, has begun construction on its first regional copper tube manufacturing facility in Bahrain, which is set to open in 2018.
Mueller Middle East is a joint venture between Bahrain’s investment arm, Mumtalakat Holding Company, and industrial projects developer and investor Cayan Ventures, along with Mueller Industries.
The new facility will produce commercial copper tubes to serve regional air conditioning and refrigeration original equipment manufacturers. It is the latest international company to sign a lease to establish a production facility in the Bahrain International Investment Park (BIIP).
