Knowledge Sovereignty and Industrial Innovation

The launch of the Hub is a direct response to the requirements of Saudi Vision 2030, focusing on localizing knowledge and transferring global expertise to the heart of the Saudi industrial sector. The Takween Innovation Hub aims to bridge technical gaps in the market by integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into material science and system engineering, ensuring the transformation of infrastructure from silent networks into smart, interactive systems that anticipate future needs.

Statement from Mr. Kinan Al-Sufi, CEO

On this occasion, Mr. Kinan Al-Sufi, CEO of Takween Plast and Chairman of the Board of Innovation Exports Co. Ltd., stated: "At Takween, we are not merely launching a research center; we are laying the foundation for national knowledge sovereignty in the piping sector. The 'Takween Innovation & Leadership Hub' is the physical embodiment of our philosophy of 'Participatory Giving.' We seek to empower national factories and elevate their efficiency to rival global products, with an absolute commitment to delivering solutions that are 'Built to Last' and protect the investments of future generations."

Strategic Pillars and Technical Objectives

The Hub is built upon several technical and engineering pillars, positioning it as the primary reference for developers and consultants:

  1. Advanced Material Engineering: Developing the next generation of Polypropylene (PPR-CT) and Polyethylene (PE100-RC) pipes, designed to withstand extreme pressures and harsh geological conditions.
  2. Embedded AI Integration: Developing smart solutions integrated directly into piping systems (Smart Pipes) that allow for real-time monitoring of flow and pressure, as well as early leak detection.
  3. Digital Engineering Transformation: Launching the "Advanced Hydraulic Calculator" and a comprehensive "BIM Modeling Library" to streamline the tasks of engineers working on major sovereign projects such as NEOM, The Red Sea, and ROSHN.
  4. Takween Knowledge Academy: A dedicated wing for training national cadres and qualifying technicians from contracting firms to ensure the optimal implementation of systems according to the highest quality standards.

Supporting Local Content and Supply Chains

Through this Hub, Takween Plast reaffirms its full administrative and technical independence under the umbrella of Innovation Exports. The Hub acts as a technical "Sun," illuminating the operational paths for the 13 manufacturing facilities associated with the ecosystem. This geographical expansion contributes to securing Logistical Security for major national projects, protecting them from global supply chain fluctuations by providing locally produced, "Sovereign Quality" alternatives that are internationally certified.

Commitment to National Sustainability

The Hub places sustainability at the forefront of its priorities. New innovations aim to extend the service life of vital assets by up to 40%, directly contributing to the "Saudi Green Initiative" by reducing water waste and operational maintenance costs.
