FABCOM, a Chinese building materials and structural engineering firm, has
announced plans to open a fibre cement board manufacturing factory in Abuja.
The company, which is part of the Chinese global giant Sinoma, already has an
industrial complex in Kuje Abuja, where it makes roofing products.

Wang, Managing Director of Sinoria FABCOM, said that the new line of products
would be the first of their kind to be manufactured in West Africa. He added
that his company had decided to diversify into fibre cement board due to
Nigeria’s raw materials and the success that it has already had with its
stone-coated roofing sheets in the country.
Wang further commended the administration of President Mohammadu Buhari for creating the ‘right atmosphere for industrial growth’ of the country, noting that within the next decade Nigeria stands the chance of becoming an industrial giant.http://www.globalcement.com/news/item/9136-cement-board-plant-for-nigeria
