Big players jockey for prime spots at Outdoor Design Build and Supply show
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 06 - 03 - 2013

COMPANIES involved with the design, build and supply of outdoor space are scrambling to capitalize on Dubai's upcoming outdoor landscaping boom, following the recent declaration by the Ruler of the Emirate that the colossal Mohammed bin Rashid Gardens project is scheduled to go ahead.
Announced by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Gardens project is a core feature of the Mohammed Bin Rashid City, and will be 30 percent larger than the 15.2 million square feet Hyde Park in London.
Projected to welcome more than 35 million visitors annually, the Mohammed bin Rashid Gardens are behind a recent surge of exhibitors signing up to participate in Outdoor Design Build & Supply show taking place on March 25-27 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
With so much green space anticipated in a country that only sees about 150 millimeters of rainfall annually, global players in irrigation technologies are also showing a keen interest at the dedicated three-day show, as they look to meet with key decision makers from government municipalities not only from Dubai, but from across the UAE and neighboring Gulf states.
Among them include the Mexican manufacturer Eltech, which will launch at the event an economical water saving irrigation solution ideally suited to the dry and sandy soils prevalent in the region. The new technology, called Perma-Garden, enhances the humidity content in soils, thus avoiding water loss during the irrigation process, essentially storing the water until needed.
Jose Antonio Garcia Diaz, General Manager at Eltech, said: “What is unique about Perma-Garden is that its application provides a new and easy solution for dry and sandy soil by avoiding water loss into the ground, and instead storing it, making it available on demand for plants, grass and trees.” – SGAnother player in irrigation with big plans for the inaugural edition of Outdoor Design Build & supply is Italian company Clabermeteo, which will launch five separate irrigation solutions, including Aqualab, Futura, Aquameteo, RF, Meteolab, and Aqua Wireless. — SG
