TradeArabia News Service reported that Bahrain-based United Stainless Steel Company (USCO), a leading stainless steel mill, said that it is working closely with authorities to investigate a fire incident at its plant, managed by ChromiumSteel, and is taking all steps to resume operations quickly. Providing an update on the status of its plant following a fire at its premises on May 22, USCO said the company’s stringent health and safety procedures combined with effective action from authorities mitigated any injuries or fatalities on site as a result of the incident.
All employees were immediately evacuated from the premises when the fire broke out at 05.15 am with Bahrain Civil Defence fire fighters arriving directly on the scene at 05.30 am. All relevant utilities were quickly shut down to avoid additional damage onsite or to surrounding areas, limiting the effects of the fire only to the plant and its machinery, it said.
As a precaution, operations at neighbouring Bahrain Steel and SULB were also temporary shut down and all employees evacuated but have since resumed, it added.
Chairman of USCO Sheikh Khaled Salem Al Sabah said: “On behalf of the board and our partners, I would like to express our deep gratitude to the Bahrain Civil Defence force for its rapid response and the effective action taken to ensure the safety of our staff at USCO and those across the Foulath Complex.”
ChromiumSteel entered into a production and sales agreement with USCO in August 2017, whereby the company is responsible to procure the necessary raw materials, manage operations and sell USCO’s products to its customers around the world, it said.
USCO is a wholly owned subsidiary of Foulath, a holding company established in 2008 for investment in the steel industry across the GCC and broader Middle East and North Africa (Mena) region, it stated. –
