Algeria’s Industrial Expansion Intensifies Demand for Specialized Plastic Extruder Machine Transport
Dateline
ALGIERS, October 2025
Body
Algeria’s push to strengthen its manufacturing sector has triggered a 35% year-on-year surge in plastic extruder machine imports, according to trade data from the National Agency for Investment Development (ANDI). This growth highlights critical logistics challenges in transporting heavy, precision industrial equipment to North Africa’s largest economy.
Key Developments:
Customs Modernization: New Algerian customs protocols (Decree 25-187) require advanced HS code harmonization and technical files for extruders. Non-compliance causes 3–5 week delays at Oran and Algiers ports.
Infrastructure Pressures: Despite upgrades to Oran’s Terminal Polyvalent Ouest (TPO), extruders exceeding 25 tons face routing challenges. Alternative routes via Annaba or Tunisian transshipment are rising.
Technical Logistics: Leading firms now deploy "cradle-to-factory" services:
Laser-guided disassembly of screw barrels & dies
Vibration-isolated crating (+40% cost premium)
Mediterranean climate-controlled containers
Local Partnerships: Companies like LogiTech DZ and global players (DHL Industrial Projects, Kuehne+Nagel) dominate the market through JVs with Algerian logistics firms for last-mile delivery.
Industry Reaction:
"A single extruder can carry €2M in components," states Amel Khettab, Algiers-based supply chain director at PolyMed Industries. "One customs document error risks corrosion damage during port delays. Partner expertise isn’t optional—it’s insurance."
Market Impact:
With Algeria’s plastic production capacity set to grow by 1.2M tons by 2028 (Ministry of Industry), efficient extruder transport could reduce factory commissioning timelines by 60%, accelerating ROI for international suppliers.
