ENMTP (Entreprise Nationale des Matériels de Travaux Publics) is an Algerian government-owned enterprise dedicated to the design, production, and marketing of machinery for public infrastructure projects. Established with a capital of 15.6 billion DA, ENMTP transitioned into a joint-stock company in 1995 as part of the reorganization of Sonacome and SN METAL.
The company manufactures equipment under licenses granted by prominent international manufacturers, including:
- Liebherr (Germany) for excavators, cranes, bulldozers, and heavy-duty transporters
- O & K (Germany) for loaders
- INGERSOLL RAND CO (United States) for compressors and compactors
- POTAIN (United States) for construction cranes
- Braud & Faucheux for concrete mixers
Beyond licensed production, ENMTP also internally develops various machines such as backhoe loaders, graders, BTS presses, and other smaller-scale equipment.
Acknowledged as one of Africa’s most significant industrial assets in heavy machinery manufacturing, ENMTP functions through distinct product divisions that enjoy considerable operational independence.
Infrastructures
ENMTP manages four manufacturing facilities supported by a commercial network spanning Algeria. The workforce comprises around 2,400 employees. The company recorded revenues of US$60 million in 2006 and anticipated reaching US$70 million in 2007.
Its core manufacturing activities center on public works machinery—including excavators, hydraulic cranes, loaders, and bulldozers—along with compactors, compressors, and concrete-related equipment.
The restructuring approach focuses on forging alliances with both domestic and international partners to:
- Create competitively priced products
- Broaden distribution domestically and abroad
- Acquire advanced technological capabilities and expertise
Partnership
ENMTP fosters collaboration by establishing subsidiaries aimed at improving product standards, modernizing production processes, enhancing competitiveness, and increasing penetration into global markets.
This approach resulted in the formation of two key subsidiaries:
- In 2012, Somatel Liebherr was launched through a partnership with the German firm Liebherr.
- Europactor Algeria was created as a subsidiary under Sofare.
Products
The range of products offered by the company includes hydraulic excavators, wheel loaders, bulldozers, backhoe loaders, graders, crawler cranes, tower cranes, compaction machinery, stationary compressors powered by electricity or diesel, concrete mixers, dump trucks, concrete pumps, spreaders, along with various small to medium construction machines.
