A new production line for hollow-core beams and slabs for a Moroccan SME.

Founded in 2020, DAMANE PREFA is a Moroccan SME specializing in the production of precast concrete, prestressed floors, and ready-mixed concrete. To diversify the range of products and services offered to its customers, DAMANE PREFA invested in a production line for hollow-core beams and slabs.

As part of the rehabilitation and modernization of its production facilities, and in order to diversify the range of products and services offered to customers, DAMANE PREFA has invested in a new-generation production line for honeycomb beams and slabs.

This new production line offers a number of advantages, including high production speeds of up to 3 m/minute, a wider range of products, and automatic control to improve product quality and reduce waste. It is a powerful force in terms of quality, speed, product range diversification and cost optimization.

Ce nouvel investissement bénéficiant de l’assistance technique et du financement fournis par Green Value Chain a permis à l’entreprise d’améliorer encore sa productivité et sa compétitivité et au sous-emprunteur d’économiser 845 000 MAD par an tout en réduisant la consommation d’électricité de 30%, ce qui correspond à une économie annuelle de 100 MWh par an d’électricité ainsi qu’à une économie de GES de 61,2 TCO2/an.
