Conexus Resources Group, the UK-headquartered pioneer of innovative solutions in the metals and agricultural commodities sectors operating in 15 countries across the world including Switzerland and Singapore, announced today the inauguration of its flagship aluminium rod plant in Bahrain, Konexus Aluminium. The new facility affirms Bahrain’s standing as a leading destination for manufacturing and export hub to international markets. With an investment value above USD 100 million, the state-of-the-art 32,000 metric tonnes per annum facility will leverage the Group’s combined expertise in cutting-edge processing and logistical capabilities in managing global value chains to process liquid aluminium from Bahrain’s national manufacturer, Alba, into high-quality aluminium rods, serving regional and international clients. Currently the second largest non-oil contributor to real GDP standing at 13.9% as of 2023, Bahrain’s manufacturing sector has maintained a healthy pipeline of national and international companies which includes Alba, the largest single-site smelter outside of China producing more than 2% of the world’s aluminium output, offering manufacturing companies investment-ready land for aluminium downstream projects. The sector remains a point of focus as one of the five priority non-oil sectors outlined by the national Economic Recovery Plan. Dr. Khaled Fahad Alalawi, Assistant Undersecretary for Industrial Development at the Ministry of
