Oman’s leading plastic pipe manufacturer Muna Noor is set to make its debut at the upcoming Big 5, a leading international building and construction show, to be held from November 21 to 24 in Dubai, UAE, with a showcase of its innovative products.

Muna Noor was established over 40 years ago and is one of Oman’s oldest companies. It is now a subsidiary of Kuwait-based Boubyan Petrochemical Company.

An ISO 9001:2008-certified company, Muna Noor manufactures Oman’s premium range of plastic pipes, valves, pumps, fittings and accessories required for water control projects in the Middle East.

The Omani company will be showcasing some of the world’s best-selling plastic pipe products for water control projects, including the multi-layer HDPE (high-density polyethylene) pipe at the event, besides celebrating the success of its newly-launched pipe and valve centre in Salalah.

Made of three co-extruded layers that become one during extrusion, the multi-layer HDPE pipe can be laid into excavated trenches without the need for expensive bedding material, said the company in a statement.

Additionally, these pipes can be lined with an abrasion-resistant layer for moving materials such as mining slurry or pumping sands during dredging, making it the ideal solution for water, gas and sewer applications in the hot and harsh grounds of the Middle East, it added.

Grant Phipps, the company's group general manager, said: "We are proud to pioneer new approaches for our company and Oman. The Salalah launch has been a massive landmark for Muna Noor and we look forward to launching more new centres in Oman and throughout the Middle East over the next year."

"Within the last few years, Muna Noor has grown exponentially and our aim is to maintain that momentum for growth and reach our target of becoming the “go to company” for large-scale and bespoke state-of-the-art piping solutions in the GCC region, whilst exploring new pipe solutions and applications in order to exceed industry expectations," he stated.

"The Big 5  certainly is the event for Muna Noor to showcase at and we look forward to offering expert technical advice whilst making new contacts and building strong relationships," remarked Phipps.

The Big 5 network has been growing for more than three decades throughout the Middle East, India and South East Asia and now supports over 300,000 construction businesses from 120 countries worldwide with large-scale exhibitions, educational events, certified training workshops and excellent networking opportunities.
