Danube bags contract for Dubai Mall project

Trade Arabia reported that Danube Building Materials, a leader in construction, building materials and shop fitting industry, has signed an AED 1.2 million contract to supply Formica toilet cubicles to the Dubai Mall project.

The Dubai Mall, which is set to become one of the world’s largest shopping centers on completion by the end of 2008, contract ranks as one of the largest projects undertaken by Danube and will entail the delivery of 500 Formica toilet cubicles using 13mm and 18 mm thick anti scratch compact laminates in crest walnut color.

The Formica toilet cubicle is made up of a thick, moisture resistant and beautifully designed Phenolic core compact laminate, which is complemented by highly durable and fashionable accessories to address the functional and aesthetic requirements of commercial buildings, shopping malls, hotels, hospitals, educational facilities and airports.

Mr Rizwan Sajan chairman of Danube Building Materials said that “Danube’s involvement in the construction of another significant landmark in Dubai is a great step towards reinforcing our reputation as the number one choice for leading developers and contractors across the region.”

The contract follows the launch of a complete line of bath solutions by Danube earlier this year, which has been received positively and is currently being used in various major projects in the country including Dubai Investment Park and Discovery Gardens.

Danube is one of the largest building suppliers in the UAE and the region with an extensive portfolio of over 10,000 products ranging from MDF, plywood, timber, laminates, veneers to sanitary fittings, hardware, ironmongery, steel, aluminum and glass among others.
