BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 11. Construction of
Spanish Roca Group’s high-tech sanitaryware manufacturing and
assembly plant in Kazakhstan’s Kyzylorda region is scheduled to
begin in October 2026, according to the Kazakh government.
The implementation of the project was discussed during a meeting
between the First Deputy Prime Minister Nurlibek Naliyev and
representatives of Roca Group.
A framework agreement on the project was signed in June 2025
during a meeting between the Prime Minister of Kazakhstan and Roca
Group’s management. An investment agreement has since been signed
between the Kazakh government, the Kyzylorda region administration
and the investor, providing for state support measures.
“The project has received further development: the company’s
investment volume increased from the initially announced 70 million
euros to 83 million euros,” the government said.
The design and preliminary plans for the plant have been
completed, while further design work is ongoing. Work is also
underway in the Kyzylorda region to launch assembly production of
installation systems and faucets.
The plant is expected to have an initial capacity of 500,000
products per year, with the potential to increase output to 1
million units. The project is expected to create around 300
permanent jobs. The products will be supplied to Kazakhstan’s
domestic market and exported to Central Asian countries.
The meeting also addressed the state examination of project
documentation, improvements to regulations governing sanitaryware
products, and the potential use of Roca products at construction
projects across Kazakhstan.
Following the meeting, government agencies and relevant
organizations were instructed to support the investor, facilitate
the state examination process, and ensure the start of construction
in October 2026.
