One of the innovations on show include the first-of-its-kind solar panels in the world from Emirates Insolaire which generates electricity on its own – an eco-friendly, sustainable model from DI.
Abdul Aziz Al Serkal, general manager of DI, said: “The Qatari market is a strategic growth destination for the UAE as it not only helps develop our business, but also provides us with a number of opportunities for investment and trade, particularly in the construction sector.
“Our subsidiary – Emirates Building Systems – has acquired more than 50 projects in the last few years, including the over $6.5mn polysilicon plant project that is currently being executed by Qatar Solar Technologies. We look forward to collaborating on projects that develop environmentally sustainable products of the highest quality and efficiency.”
Emphasizing the vital role played by Project Qatar in the business development across the Gulf, Al Serkal added: “This exhibition has succeeded in continually providing companies in the region with a strong platform to build business relationships with relevant industry partners.
“We look forward to leveraging potential business opportunities in Qatar’s booming construction sector through our participation in the mega event.”
