Al Zamil

What Al Zamil does

Al Zamil Industry, Trade and Transport Company is a Saudi Arabia-based, privately held manufacturer and distributor of building materials, headquartered in Riyadh and founded in 1985. The company is anchored by what it describes as the largest polyethylene water tank factory in Saudi Arabia, operating roto-molding and blow-molding lines that produce tanks with capacities exceeding 100,000 liters, plus a four-layer construction (UV-resistant exterior, opaque black layer, foam insulation, smooth white interior) sourced exclusively from SABIC raw material with FDA approval for potable water storage. Complementing tanks, Al Zamil runs glass-lined steel tank, automatic-door, composite manhole-cover, and injection-molding production lines, and offers bituminous, cementitious, polyurea, polyurethane, and acrylic waterproofing and thermal-insulation services.

The revenue model rests on direct hardware sales of these manufactured categories plus authorized or exclusive distribution of international brands — Grundfos pumps (authorized), JPC pumps (sole agent), Ruud American water heaters, Puricom water filters, BQ German PP-R pipes and fittings (exclusive), and Somfy automatic-door motors. Distribution is executed through a direct field-sales and branch network covering all five Saudi Arabian regions (Central, Eastern, Western, Northern, Southern) with roughly 25 branches, an e-commerce storefront at store.zamilco.com, and third-party distributors in Kuwait (Ahmed Safar Cont. & Building Materials Est.) and Iraq (Saba Trading Co. Kazem AL-Muzaffar). Customer segments span residential homeowners (primary), commercial and project contractors (primary), and government/municipal buyers (secondary), with no public revenue, pricing, or named-account disclosure.
