Al Marwan Machinery has delivered a major boost to the UAE’s concrete sector with the arrival of the CIFA MAGNUM MK28L Mixer Pump – a next-generation solution that combines power, precision, and Italian engineering excellence.
In a market defined by scale and speed, Al Marwan Machinery continues to strengthen its reputation for bringing world-class construction technology to the region. The company’s latest milestone, the delivery of the CIFA MAGNUM MK28L Mixer Pump to a landmark landscaping development in Dubai, highlights a new level of efficiency and flexibility in concrete pumping solutions.
“The MAGNUM MK28L embodies the best of Italian engineering and design,” said Wajih Eit, Head of Area – MENA, CIFA. “Its arrival reflects our shared commitment with Al Marwan Machinery to deliver performance-driven equipment that meets the evolving needs of contractors across the UAE and Oman.”
Few machines have influenced modern concrete delivery as profoundly as CIFA’s MAGNUM Series. When it debuted in the late 1970s, it introduced the world’s first truck-mounted mixer pump, merging two critical processes—mixing and pumping—into a single, efficient system.
The concept revolutionised the industry. By eliminating the need for separate machines, the MAGNUM simplified logistics, improved productivity, and reduced onsite footprint. Over the decades, CIFA’s focus on continuous innovation, intelligent hydraulics, and precision control systems has kept the MAGNUM brand synonymous with reliability and performance.
“The MAGNUM Series has always represented the spirit of innovation within CIFA,” said Eit. “It is an engineering solution born from practical experience on jobsites, refined through decades of research, and continuously adapted to modern construction demands.”
The MK28L: Power, Precision, and Productivity
The MAGNUM MK28L is the latest evolution of this legendary line. Designed for both urban projects and large-scale infrastructure, it combines high output with impressive manoeuvrability—attributes that make it a favourite for contractors working in complex environments such as Dubai’s dense urban landscape.
At its core, the MK28L is the only mixer pump in the world equipped with 5-inch concrete pipes, ensuring smoother flow, higher output, and reduced wear during long pumping operations. The configuration improves efficiency while maintaining consistent pressure and concrete quality, even on demanding pours.
Featuring a 28-metre boom, a 9-cubic-metre mixer drum, and CIFA’s robust pumping unit, the MK28L offers a balance of reach and reliability unmatched in its class.
“The MK28L’s design reflects CIFA’s long-standing expertise in merging strength and agility,” Eit explained. “It delivers concrete precisely where it’s needed, helping contractors save time, enhance quality, and reduce costs onsite.”
Tailored for Dubai’s Landscape
Dubai’s dynamic construction market demands equipment that can perform flawlessly across a variety of project scales—from high-rise towers to intricate landscape works. The MK28L’s compact design and intelligent boom geometry make it especially suited for sites where space, mobility, and timing are critical.
The machine’s high pumping pressure and smooth output control ensure accurate concrete placement across complex layouts and extended reaches. Its compact structure also allows easier access to restricted zones and improved operational safety in built-up environments.
“The MK28L was designed for precisely these conditions,” Eit said. “It offers the flexibility to operate efficiently in tight urban spaces while maintaining the productivity required for large infrastructure and landscaping projects.”
Engineered for the Region
Each CIFA unit is built to withstand the toughest conditions, and the MK28L is no exception. Its high-strength steel construction, corrosion-resistant components, and durable hydraulic systems are optimised for the Gulf’s heat and dust.
Through Al Marwan Machinery’s regional dealership in the UAE and Oman, customers also benefit from dedicated service support, spare-parts availability, and operator training.
“Equipment performance is only one part of the equation,” Eit emphasised. “Service, maintenance, and technical knowledge are what ensure that machines deliver their full potential throughout their lifecycle—and that’s exactly what our partnership with Al Marwan Machinery provides.”
The introduction of the MAGNUM MK28L strengthens a collaboration between CIFA and Al Marwan Machinery that continues to raise the standard for concrete equipment in the Middle East.
“Our partnership is built on shared values—innovation, safety, and reliability,” said Eit. “Together, we’re equipping contractors with tools that enhance productivity while meeting sustainability and performance targets. The MK28L is a perfect example of how CIFA technology can adapt to the unique challenges of this region.”
As the UAE and Oman pursue increasingly complex and sustainable projects, the need for integrated, efficient, and low-impact concrete delivery systems will grow. The MK28L answers that call—delivering the precision of a pump and the capacity of a mixer in one seamless solution.
