EFE, part of the ONUR Group, is one of the largest companies in Ukraine that produces ready-mixed concrete, reinforced concrete products, metal structures, and paving stones. Since the onset of the war, it has invested $15M in development and continues to increase its production.
In 2023, the company launched two plants that produce ready-mixed concrete in addition to the existing three. The available production capacity reaches 800 cubic meters per hour. The company also launched new production lines for paving stones and reinforced concrete products.
According to EFE CEO Erhan Oztop, the company pays special attention to investments in automation, stating “Although we were able to increase the staff by 30% after February 24, 2022, the need for new employees remains. This motivates us to make large investments in the automation of production processes. We recently purchased a 3D machine for bending reinforcement products from the Italian company Schnell with a capacity of eight tons daily. This allows us to replace 25 people and produce high-quality metal structures in the shortest possible time.”
