Leading manufacturer to supply top quality rubber insulation products for the mega project
Rubber World Industries (RWI), the leading manufacturer of closed-cell rubber insulation 'Gulf-O-flex' in the Gulf and South-East Asia, and part of the international business conglomerate, the Shaikhani Group of Companies, has announced that it has won an AED 1 million 'Gulf-O-flex' rubber insulation contract for the prestigious Al Raha Beach development in Abu Dhabi. The leading manufacturer will supply top quality rubber insulation products, which will be used in two major projects within the AED 54 billion leisure development - 'Al Bandar', a focal point for marine, leisure and family activities in the community; and the 51,000 sq. metre-commercial office space where Aldar Properties PJSC, Abu Dhabi's first and fully integrated development company, will establish its headquarters.
Conspel Emirates LLC, a subcontractor for the mega project, has awarded the contract to RWI, which is currently in the process of delivering rubber insulation tubes and duct insulation sheets. With a flame spread rating of less than 25 and a smoke spread rating of less than 50, RWI's rubber insulation tubes have a high capacity to retard heat loss for hot water plumbing, liquid heating and dual temperature piping. Furnished with a smooth black-coloured skin on one side that forms the outer exposed insulation surface, 13-milimetre thick duct insulation sheets provide elastomeric thermal insulation to retard heat gain and control condensation drip from chilled water and refrigeration systems, while reducing heat flow on hot systems.
"A world-class project such as the Al Raha Beach development utilises only the best products, and the massive order we have received for this prestigious project underlines the quality of our offerings and the excellent value we provide to our large-scale customers," said Abu Baker Shaikhani, Chairman, Rubber World Industries. "We are currently in the process of completing the delivery of our products for Al Raha Beach development, which along with other landmark developments has identified the excellent advantages of our rubber insulation offerings."
The Al Raha Beach development is a beachfront project being built on reclaimed land at Al Raha Beach complex, occupying an area of 6.8 million sq. meters with a total built-up area of 12 million sq. meters. Located along the Abu Dhabi-Dubai highway, opposite to Al Raha Gardens, the project will provide a unique lifestyle through its world class residential, commercial, cultural, entertainment and public facilities, which will house up to 120,000 residents. The development consists of eight distinct areas, each with their own personalities and appeal.
