Future Cities Show

UAE Industrial Firms with Sustainable Technologies at Future Cities Show Held from 9-11 April, 2018 at the DWTC

The second edition of Future Cities Show, the brightest event on smart cities and innovative urban solutions, which will take place at Dubai World Trade Centre next month is featuring some solutions that will definitely be a part of our everyday urban landscapes in the region. Some products at Future Cities Show 2018 include coloured solar glass panels, sputter-coated energy-saving glass, thermal insulations, and efficient district cooling.

One of the main innovations that will appear is Kromatix™, a patented technology of coloured solar panels that are manufactured by Emirates Insolaire. Kromatix™ uses a multi-layered coating deposited on the inner glass surface confirming high solar transmittance, minimal absorption, and high durability. This is not only a green energy power generation module used in many projects in the UAE but a breakthrough in the synergy between beautiful architecture and ecological technology.

Another product with urban solution at the show is a crucial improvement in glass performance in solar heat gain manufactured locally by Emirates Glass. EmiCool® Series ensures dramatic energy savings while meeting local and regional building energy codes and satisfies all aesthetic and design requirements. EmiCool® has become a signature of sustainable architecture in renowned projects like AKOYA at Dubailand to Flame Towers in Baku, Azerbaijan.

Anne Marie Thodsen, manager of Future Cities Show accentuated: “Sustainability notion is among the pillars of Future Cities Show”. Sustainable architecture expedites approaches to conserve energy and ecology in the design of the built environment. Wall insulation remains one of the oldest and yet most important methods in low-energy building techniques. Emirates Extruded Polystyrene products offer energy conservation through insulation by 30-40% and shall be demonstrated at the exhibition.

Both Lite-Tech Industries with its efficient lighting systems, and Emirates District Cooling with its trail of success in environmental control of megastructures will be there to complete the jigsaw of suitability products line under the aegis of Dubai Investments, which owns more than 40 firms in 3 key segments of real estate, manufacturing and contracting, and investments.
