 TABALSA ARABIA forms part of the prestigious TABALSA Group located in Barcelona, Spain. TABALSAT, ALLERES BALCELLS, S.A. was established in 1952 in Barcelona, originally as the business “RAMON BALCELLS, S.A.’, created in 1921 by the homonymous entrepreneur. Being TALLERES BALCELLSS, S.A., the first company in Spain to manufacture steel pipes for electrical installations, nowadays TABALSA is Spain’s unquestionable leader in rigid conduit cable management systems for electrical and telecom applications. Our presence in practically all European countries as well as in Northern Africa and our experience of more than 85 years has turned us into a reference in the sector.

Electrical Metallic Tubes shortly known in the industry as “EMT’ is the sole product being manufactured by Tabalsa-Arabia, a member of the ETE Group of Companies in Saudi Arabia. Though it comes in various types, however, it is mainly used for protecting and routing electrical wiring commonly applied in commercial & industrial buildings. In addition, Tabalsa Arabia Factory produces all kind of fittings available on the market but even our own specific design from Tabalsa Spain which will be the future couplings in the GCC market.

Driven by stronger business foresight, ETE Group embarked on a joint-venture business with a major Spanish company TABALSA-TALLERESB ALCELLS, S.A. engaged in the production of EMT across Europe, forming a new independent entity known as, Tabalsa-Arabia. This idea came about as anticipated move, after ETE Group’s top management team had sensed a positive stimulus in the construction industry- characterized by a massive socio-economic projects being planned everywhere in the region- that would likely trigger high demand for EMT in the next few years. Armed with a positive outlook and determination to grasp every opportunity that comes in the way, it didn’t take us long until the mid of 2009 when the first batch of EMTs was successfully produced by Tabalsa-Arabia through a state-of-the-art production facility located at Dammam Second Industrial Area.

However, just like any other field of business endeavor, while in the process of obtaining International Certificates & Recognition. Finally, hard work and perseverance bear their fruits when Underwriters Laboratories (UL) an American-based independent safety and quality certification organization, granted approval for Tabalsa-Arabia’s EMT products, that is of course after going through tedious & grueling scientific procedures.

Having been bestowed with this prestigious honor and certification gives Tabalsa-Arabia a competitive edge in the stiff market competition since it could automatically translate to a big boost in sales as it lays the foundation for customers’ trust in product quality.

Year by year Tabalsa-Arabia Factory is consolidating in the local market (KSA) as a leading manufacturer due to big growth in sales and by the quality of all its products. Export states in GCC began 2 years ago under the own normative of each country.

Finally, as our main mission, our team is focused on satisfying the needs of clients and we work always beside the projects and the purchasing-technical departments.

Our vision is to be a referent in canalization in GCC countries.
