Al Yamamah Steel Industries Co.

What Al Yamamah Steel Industries Co. does

Al Yamamah Steel Industries Company is a Saudi Arabia-based, publicly listed (Tadawul: 1304) steel manufacturer incorporated in Riyadh in 1989 and operating production facilities in Jeddah, Dammam, and Yanbu with sales offices in Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam. The company produces five main product lines through dedicated business units: welded steel hollow sections (square, rectangular, and round tubes plus sheets), electrical poles and high masts (distribution poles up to 66 KV, lighting poles 3–16 m, high masts 20–45 m), overhead transmission line and telecom towers (OHTL towers up to 500 KV, telecom towers 6–150 m), three-dimensional space frames, and — more recently — solar and wind energy mounting structures. Reinforcing steel bars are produced through a majority-owned subsidiary, Al Yamamah Company for Reinforcing Steel Bars.

Manufacturing relies on CNC machining, electrical resistance welding (ERW), and one of the largest hot-dip galvanizing pools in the Middle East, with ISO 9001:2008-certified quality management covering towers and poles operations. Tower design is supported by industry-standard engineering software (PLS towers, Sag 10, X-Steel, BOCAD, AutoCAD) following ASCE 10-97, AISC, ANSI/TIA-222-G, and ACI 318 standards, enabling in-house design-to-fabrication for transmission and telecom structures.

The company generates revenue through direct, project-based hardware sales to three primary verticals: construction and infrastructure (Saudi Aramco as a marquee customer), electrical power transmission and distribution (Saudi Electricity Company, Alfanar), and telecommunications (telecom operators, with Masdar signaling adjacency into renewable energy EPCs). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; contracts are quoted on a project basis, with a SAR 106.4 million contract disclosed as a recent data point. The go-to-market is direct sales-led via physical offices, complemented by a corporate website and investor relations disclosures. Growth and capital structure are currently being shaped by a SAR 300 million rights offering at the rebar subsidiary that will dilute parent ownership from 72.5% to 51% in 2026 to fund a second-phase plant expansion.
