Ten precast manufacturers from the UAE are jointly setting up the Precast Zone at the upcoming Big 5 exhibition in order to increase awareness of the advantages of precast.

These are Concrete Technology, Dubai Precast, Emarat Europe, Exeed Precast, Gulf Precast, Hard Precast, RAK Precast, Union Precast Factory, United Precast Concrete and Xtramix.

While major construction developments are announced in the Gulf region, these 10 firms, all members of the Precast Chapter of the Concrete Society, aim towards an increased recognition of the advantages of a precast solution in construction developments, said an expert .

While these are widely documented and recognized internationally, there is scope for improvements in the knowledge of precast in the Gulf region, he added.

Enhanced product quality, reduced construction costs and time, improved development sustainability and safety are some of topics that will be covered during the seminar.

The seminar will also review different types of projects in which the high quality, sustainability, and economical benefits of precast will benefit developers, including community villa developments, infrastructure works, high rise buildings and shopping centers.-TradeArabia News Service
