Profile

Eastern Asphalt and Mixed Concrete Co. W.L.L., also known as EAMCO was established as a partnership in the year 1976 between Abdul Aziz Mansoor Al-A’Ali and Ahmed Mansoor Al-A’Ali, to manufacture asphalt and construct roads and supply ready mixed concrete to contractors on the island. With the Middle East oil economies booming an urgent need was felt for fast-paced industrialization and housing. This again called for the building of modern infrastructure so as to contribute to the rapidly growing construction industry in Bahrain. A resultant gap emerged between the growing demand for quality construction products and the limited supply capacities. EAMCO in its farsightedness grabbed the opportunity to bridge this gap and has since then never looked back.

EAMCO H.O - AMA CENTRE BUILDING

EAMCO’s flagship division - Eastern Asphalt was involved in major roads construction and contributed considerably in building roads network all over Bahrain. The various asphalt mixes produced by the plants for different applications meant that Eastern Asphalt could meet any specific requirement of the clients for projects, both big and small, a flair which Eastern Asphalt continues to date.

EAMCO’s another division – Eastern Ready Mix has consistently produced high quality mixed concrete and has been a major contributor to infrastructural and housing projects in Bahrain. Over the years the composition of the concrete mixes has changed in tune with the technological changes in the construction industry and Eastern Ready Mix has stood up to such challenging situations at all times. This innovative and adaptive attitude of Eastern Ready Mix is quite evident from its multifarious concrete supplies to heavy industries, power projects, desalination plants, urea and aluminium plants, residential buildings and private villas etc. etc.

Visionary management and total dedication to quality and customer satisfaction saw the company grow exponentially in size, reputation and product lines. Firmly established as one of Bahrain’s leading companies, EAMCO founders embarked on an ambitious diversification initiative. In the year 1985 to keep in tune with the latest construction methods and technology, a new division – Eastern Precast was set up… to deal with the manufacture and erection of hollow core slabs and other precast concrete elements. Precast construction then was relatively a new but promising concept in Bahrain and is now widely patronized by various sectors of the construction industry as an economical, reliable and practical solution over its cast-in-situ counterpart.

To support the above major divisions of EAMCO, the company has a stone crushing plant and an aggregate screening and sand washing plant which produces quality raw materials for production. It also has a fully equipped garage with a machinery workshop to look after the periodical and overall maintenance of all mobile equipments and vehicles and static plants. A centralised store which houses all the plants’ and equipments’ spares ensures a good service backup. Each of the division has attached to it a Quality laboratory where the raw materials and the finished products are checked to match specifications.

EAMCO is a government approved supplier for all its products. EAMCO’s plants and site operations are managed and supervised by engineers and technicians with extensive experience in their respective fields. The work force consists of skilled and unskilled employees backed up by external and in-house training facilities.

From the year 2000, EAMCO has been awarded the ISO 9002 / ISO 9001 certification covering all its divisions.
