(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) The UAE's thermal insulation market is growing at a rate of 20 per cent per year, thanks to the government's mandatory building efficiency codes and new green testing and certification process.
This is according to Gary Seabrook, general manager at Caparol that is currently among the UAE's leading suppliers of external thermal insulation composite systems, or Etics, involved in the Middle East Drymix Mortar Association conference in Dubai.
"Dubai regulators have recognised that saving energy makes a significant contribution to protection of the environment. One of the critically-important energy-saving areas is applying Etics, which is now regulatory in Dubai, thus ensuring that the energy used to cool buildings is maximised by sealing the heat out," he said.
