Purchasing Department

Zinc Egypt is Egyptian’s second largest consumer of primary zinc and also consumes primary zinc in Africa.

We buy primarily SHG zinc but also extra pure SHG, so-called Super SHG, for battery applications.

Next to that, we are one of the biggest recycler and consumer of residues from the galvanizing industry.

Some 40% of the zinc units processed by Zinc Egypt come from secondary sources, Zinc Egypt thereby aims to reduce energy and primary raw materials requirements and this, without jeopardizing the high quality standards of our products.

Zinc Egypt is constantly in the market for the purchase of a range of suitable secondary raw materials to be used in one or the other of its plants located in Eijsden (NL), Zolder (B), Larvik(NO), and Pasir Gudang (MAL)
