In a strategic move that supports Saudi Arabia’s industrial ambitions, HIMA Group, a leading independent provider of safety-related automation solutions, has inaugurated its first establishment in the Kingdom. This development is in line with the country’s forward-looking Saudi Vision 2030 and is poised to reinforce initiatives within the industrial domain, especially those propelled by Aramco’s In-Kingdom Total Value Add (IKTVA) programme.
Steffen Philipp, Managing Partner of HIMA, expressed the company’s intent: Our mission is to support regional goals, develop local talent, and aid in the development of a safer future. HIMA Saudi Arabia will thus stand as a representation of our commitment to the aspirations of the visionary people of Saudi Arabia.
With a legacy spanning over a century and armed with more than five decades of accredited safety expertise, HIMA introduced HIMA Saudi Arabia to deliver tailored solutions that aim to mitigate risks, enhance efficiency, and ensure adherence to industrial norms within the Kingdom.
The firm is set to play a significant role in achieving key objectives of the IKTVA programme, such as fostering collaboration, bolstering local supply chain capabilities, and securing suppliers throughout Saudi Arabia.
Jörg de la Motte, CEO of HIMA, emphasized the company’s dedication to innovation: We will continue to reinvent our offerings and hope to shape a future characterized by collaborative development and transformative safety solutions.
Andrew Dennant, Vice President of HIMA Middle East, also remarked on the potential for growth and partnership: We look forward to leveraging our industry expertise and collaborating with our partners and customers to shape the future of industrial safety across KSA and beyond.
