Alfa Laval reaffirms long-term commitment to Middle East

Alfa Laval reaffirms its long-term commitment to the Middle East during a two-day visit by Alfa Laval President and CEO Tom Erixon to the United Arab Emirates. The visit underscores the company’s strategic focus on the region and its dedication to supporting its employees and standing with its customers during challenging times.

The Middle East is an important region for Alfa Laval, with 175 employees, nine offices and four service centres – including a new service centre that recently opened in Abu Dhabi – supporting more than 1,000 customers.

During his visit, Tom Erixon met with employees in Abu Dhabi and across Dubai. The visit also included meeting senior leaders from major industrial customers as well as the heads of the diplomatic missions of Sweden and Denmark. Discussions focused on operational resilience, efficiency and sustainability – areas where Alfa Laval’s technologies play vital roles.

"The Middle East has been instrumental for the company for decades and remains a region of tremendous opportunity," says Tom Erixon. "Alfa Laval is here for the long term, we are supporting our customers in navigating complex challenges, standing beside them and providing the technology, expertise and partnership they need to move forward.”

“Industrial resilience is being tested globally, and the Middle East is no exception,” said Cedric Domont, President of Sales Region Middle East, South & East Africa. “Our teams in the region continue to innovate and support customers with unwavering dedication. This visit demonstrates Alfa Laval’s commitment to investing in people, partnerships and technology to help our customers succeed today and prepare for tomorrow.”
