OPTES Group was founded in Egypt as an engineering, consulting and industrial solutions company serving the metallurgical, foundry, steel, refractory, non-ferrous and mining industries — connecting international technologies and reliable materials with the real needs of regional markets.
OPTES began developing local manufacturing capabilities in Egypt — blending, grinding, coatings, refractory-related products, mineral preparation and other value-added industrial materials.
INTERMET Trading was established in Dubai to support OPTES Group's international trading, procurement, export activities and regional business development across Africa, the Middle East and global markets.
ANGOMELT was established in Angola as part of OPTES Group's regional expansion strategy — supporting industrial development, metallurgical activities and future manufacturing opportunities in the African market.
OPTES built strong partnerships with first-class international suppliers, manufacturers and service providers across metallurgical products, refractories, foundry coatings, carbon materials, ferroalloys, minerals, equipment and technical services.
OPTES expanded into mining and mineral development — mineral evaluation, beneficiation concepts, zirconium silicate products and value-added mineral solutions — moving beyond trading into integrated industrial development.
