Hut Jubail Metal Forming and Galvanizing Factory announced the successful completion of the first monitoring audit (Intertek audit) of the integrated management system, which was conducted on October 18 and 19, 2026, by Intertek, one of the entities specialized in inspection, testing, inspection, and certification services.

This achievement comes as an extension of the factory’s commitment to implementing internationally recognized management systems, which supports the quality of industrial processes and enhances interest in environmental responsibility and worker safety.

The factory’s integrated management system includes three main international standards:

  • ISO9001:2015 – Quality management system: Focuses on fine-tuning processes, improving output consistency, and enhancing the ability to meet customer requirements and project-specific specifications.
  • ISO14001:2015 – Environmental management system: Supports the regulation of environmental aspects of industrial processes, improves environmental management, and enhances compliance with relevant requirements.
  • ISO45001:2018 – Occupational health and safety management system: Focuses on managing occupational hazards, reducing the likelihood of injuries and accidents, and promoting a safer working environment.

Intertek Certification Limited issued the attached certificates, confirming that the factory has registered its three management systems in accordance with the specified standards. The certificates cover the design, engineering, procurement, manufacturing, galvanizing, coating, installation, and maintenance of steel structures, storage tanks, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, prefabricated industrial units, piping systems, and pipelines.

The certificates also confirm that the factory obtained approval on September 9, 2026, and that the certificates remain valid until December 16, 2028.

These standards are particularly important in industries that require high levels of accuracy and reliability, as administrative systems help organizations standardize procedures, define responsibilities, monitor performance, and manage risks systematically. 

By completing the first monitoring audit, AL-JUBAIL HIT Factory for Steel Fabrication & Galvanizing confirms its commitment to the integrated management system and the associated certification requirements.

From design to installation: integrated solutions for steel forming and metal galvanizing

The factory offers  a comprehensive range of  steel forming and metal galvanizing services, supporting the needs of the construction, oil and gas, petrochemical, and energy sectors.     

The factory is located in the third industrial support area of Jubail Industrial City, covering an area of approximately 49,860 square meters. Its industrial capabilities allow it to provide multiple services within an integrated operational scope, including the basic stages of developing steel products and preparing them for projects.

Services begin with consulting, design, and engineering, where we identify project needs and technical requirements and develop appropriate solutions according to the required specifications. Then comes the manufacturing phase, which includes the production of steel structures, pre-fabricated piping systems and their sections, storage tanks, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, modular industrial units (Skid Packages), and other components designed according to the needs of different applications.

The factory also provides industrial coating services, which help protect steel components from environmental factors and corrosion, using a coating system appropriate to the nature of use.

Hot-dip galvanizing is a key service provided by the plant, as it relies on creating a protective zinc layer on the steel surface to help resist corrosion and enhance the life of components under various operating conditions.

The system also incorporates inspection and testing services, including material, dimensional, and visual inspections, non-destructive testing, mechanical and chemical testing, and corrosion resistance assessments, depending on the specific product and project requirements.

The factory’s capabilities also include the installation, assembly, and installation of steel structures at project sites, taking into account safety and implementation requirements.

These integrated services support the factory’s ability to handle the requirements of industrial projects, from the design and manufacturing stages to protection, inspection, and installation, helping customers coordinate the implementation stages within an interconnected range of services, according to agreed specifications.

Quality, sustainability, and safety: standards guiding industrial processes

The integrated management system at the AL-JUBAIL HIT Factory is important not only for meeting certification requirements but also for supporting a systematic approach to managing industrial processes.

ISO 9001:2015 provides a framework for quality management and process improvement, helping to enhance consistency between project requirements and manufacturing outputs.

In contrast, ISO14001:2015 supports the management of environmental aspects associated with industrial activities, while ISO45001:2018 provides a framework for occupational health and safety management, helping to identify and systematically address occupational hazards.

These aspects gain clear importance when manufacturing steel structures, pressure vessels, storage tanks, and piping systems, as projects require adherence to technical specifications, verification of material quality and dimensions, and implementation of the necessary inspections before delivery.

Safety procedures are also an essential element during manufacturing, lifting, and installation processes, while organized environmental management contributes to better dealing with the environmental impacts of industrial activities.

In addition to ISO standards, the factory’s official website demonstrates its commitment to international technical frameworks and specifications, including ASTM, ASME, API, AWS, and AISC, according to the nature of the products and project requirements.

Combining management systems with relevant technical specifications helps provide a framework that supports operational reliability, taking into account the specific requirements of each project.

For contractors, engineering, supply and construction (EPC) companies, industrial facility operators, and procurement and quality teams, clarity of the scope of services and adherence to specifications and inspection procedures are important elements in evaluating suppliers and manufacturing partners. 

Hence, the continued implementation of the integrated management system represents a supporting factor for the factory’s approach to providing industrial solutions based on quality, responsibility, and safety.

An industrial partnership based on trust and readiness for upcoming projects

The success of the Intertek audit represents an important milestone in the journey of its AL-JUBAIL HIT Factory and also reflects the efforts made by the work team to maintain the application of approved management systems and develop operational practices. 

On this occasion, the factory thanks all members of its team for their commitment and efforts and its customers and partners for their continued trust and cooperation.

As industrial and construction projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia continue to develop, cooperation with partners who possess the technical capabilities necessary to manufacture and protect steel components is becoming increasingly important, in addition to providing inspection and installation services in accordance with project requirements.

AL-JUBAIL HIT Factory continues to direct its expertise and capabilities towards meeting these needs through services that include steel structures, hot-dip galvanizing, storage tanks, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, modular industrial units, and piping systems and lines.

These efforts align with the importance of developing local industrial capabilities and enhancing project implementation efficiency, in line with the Kingdom’s development trends and Saudi Vision 2030. However, passing the audit alone does not guarantee the results of any particular project. The outputs remain linked to each project’s requirements, specifications, and implementation procedures.
