For a company operating in the Boussada region of Algeria, engaged in aggregate production as well as concrete, block and precast element manufacturing, MEKA has successfully commissioned a 400 tph crushing and screening plant. As the largest block and paving stone producer in the region, the company stands out with its integrated and sustainable production structure, utilizing the aggregates supplied to the market also within its own facilities.
Designed to process limestone, this high-capacity plant has been engineered to ensure continuous and efficient operation even under challenging quarry conditions. In order to enable direct and stable feeding of large-sized rocks, the system is equipped with a 40 m³ feeding hopper, along with an MPF 1020 pan feeder and an MGF 1460/40 grizzly feeder. At the primary crushing stage, the MPI 1515 primary impact crusher serves as the main powerhouse of the plant, delivering high capacity and reliable performance. Following primary crushing, the material flow is optimized through a heavy-duty MSH 1540/2 inclined screen.
At the secondary crushing stage, the MSI 1115H secondary impact crusher enhances the final product quality, meeting the aggregate standards required for concrete and precast production. Screening processes are completed with an MS 2460/4 inclined screen, while the belt conveyor system throughout the plant ensures controlled and efficient material handling. The entire operation is centrally monitored and managed through modern electrical and automation systems, providing safe and reliable plant control.
With this investment, the company has become the owner of one of the highest-capacity crushing and screening plants in the Boussada region, significantly increasing its production capability. Thanks to its ability to handle large feed sizes, the plant provides substantial time and cost savings in quarry operations, while ensuring uninterrupted aggregate supply for both the market and the company’s own concrete and precast facilities. This has strengthened the company’s competitive position and secured production continuity.
The company’s decision to once again choose MEKA for this project was strongly influenced by the positive field experience gained from previously installed MEKA crushers. In addition to high capacity, robust mechanical design and stable performance, MEKA’s strong references across Algeria in both public and private sectors, along with its effective after-sales support network, were among the key factors supporting the investment decision.
This project stands as a strong example of MEKA’s high-performance, reliable and long-term crushing and screening solutions in the North African market, delivering significant added value to the regional aggregate and concrete industry.
