Eng. Katya Angelova from Dedal with the management team of Basalt Holding.
We are pleased to share yet another completed CE certification project at the Basalt Holding plant in Uzbekistan.
The CE-certified products are geogrids produced under the harmonized European standard EN 15381 - "Geotextiles and geotextile-related products - Characteristics required for use in pavements and asphalt overlays."
Basalt geogrid is a highly durable, eco-friendly reinforcement material made from volcanic basalt rock, offering superior strength, temperature resistance, and longevity without toxic emissions or environmental pollution.
Basalt Holding is part of the "Basalt Uzbekistan" group of companies. The group is a leading producer of composite materials in the region, focusing on the extraction of basalt rock and the production of advanced construction materials. Their product range includes basalt fibers, reinforcement materials, geogrids, and insulation products.
In June 2024, the Basalt Uzbekistan Group entered into a joint venture to establish a state-of-the-art basalt technology plant in Uzbekistan and has developed a significant industrial cluster in the Forish district of the Jizzakh region, covering 300 hectares. The $30 million investment has a capacity to produce 45,000 tons of basalt products annually, further enhancing the company's production capabilities. Eighty percent of the production is exported to countries such as the USA, EU, and Russia.
We are honored that they have entrusted Dedal with the CE certification of their products, and we wish them continued success in the international market.
