RAK Porcelain Europe invested 7.5 Million Euros
Specialising in the manufacture of porcelain for the hotel and catering industry, the company is a subsidiary of the RAK Ceramics Group, one of the largest ceramic brands in the world, employing a total of 15,000 people.
Since 2006, RAK Porcelain Europe SA has been based in Windhof, Luxembourg, where it operates a logistics platform to serve its customers in many countries in Europe. Employing 60 people, the site also hosts the European headquarters and the RAK Porcelain showroom.
RAK awarded the contract of a new logistics investment project to the long term Astron partner MBS Buildings SA.
As the storage area on the current site in Windhof is at its maximum capacity, the project involves the construction of a «multifunctional» building in the «Krakelshaff», a logistics and railway hub in Bettembourg, with a surface area of 5,500 m² for one new distribution centre, offices and the showroom of the European headquarters.
RAK Porcelain’s new European distribution centre will enable the company to consolidate all its logistics activities under one roof, such as the receipt of 11 million finished porcelain products shipped annually from the Ras al-Kaimah plant to Luxembourg.
