Speaking about NFF’s expansion, Haidar bin Mohammed al Lawati, executive director of NFF, affirmed their faith in Khazaen as the ideal location in fuelling company’s future plans and said, “NFF has been a leading manufacturer of glass-reinforced plastics and glass-reinforced concrete in Oman since 1992.
