Hassan Allam Holding has signed an agreement to acquire MetiPro, marking a significant step in expanding its footprint across the water and wastewater sector in the Middle East, Africa and beyond.
The move brings together two established players with more than 150 years of combined experience, forming a strengthened platform focused on delivering large-scale, sustainable water infrastructure. The acquisition aligns with Hassan Allam Holding’s strategy to scale its capabilities in engineering, procurement and construction, while addressing growing demand for water security solutions across emerging markets.
The Group’s water platform already spans a broad range of services through its subsidiaries, including Hassan Allam Construction, Intech, Bioworks and Ridgewood. The addition of MetiPro is expected to enhance its ability to deliver complex desalination and wastewater treatment projects from design through to operations.
MetiPro brings over six decades of expertise in water and wastewater engineering, with a presence in more than 50 countries. Its portfolio includes desalination, water reuse, industrial treatment and surface water projects, supported by advanced engineering capabilities and a track record of delivering tailored solutions for both public and private sector clients.
The acquisition builds on an existing collaboration between the two groups, which have previously worked together on major projects such as Al Mahsamma and New Delta, as well as ongoing developments in West Alexandria and Abu Oweikal. These initiatives have contributed to improving water reuse, supporting agriculture and strengthening environmental sustainability in Egypt.
Eng. Hassan Allam, CEO of Hassan Allam Holding, described the agreement as a milestone for the company and the wider sector. “By bringing together MetiPro’s global expertise with our legacy of delivering complex projects, we are creating a stronger, integrated platform to lead the next generation of sustainable water and wastewater developments,” he said.
Karim Madwar, CEO of MetiPro, added that the partnership will enable the company to scale its operations and accelerate project delivery across key markets. “With Hassan Allam Holding’s support, we are well positioned to expand our impact and contribute to long-term water security solutions,” he noted.
The transaction reflects growing investment in water infrastructure as governments and developers prioritise resilience, climate adaptation and sustainable resource management across the region.
