Mekar showcases its latest district cooling technology at Batimat

Mekar is showcasing its portfolio of products including Air Handling Units (AHUs) and Fan Coil Units (FCUs), which have been installed in iconic projects such as Burj Al Arab, Burj Dubai and over 200 other prestigious and high end projects across the UAE.

Visiting executives and owners of Mekar, Mr.Giuseppe Boaro and Mr. Francesco Boaro, who are in Abu Dhabi attending Batimat, are witnessing a huge interest in Mekar's product range. Mr. Boaro stated, 'The UAE is currently exploding commercially as its vibrant construction sector rides high on new mega projects breaking ground almost every day. In turn, all related industries, including district cooling have received a major boost. This event offers an opportunity to showcase our new technology breakthrough which consists of special high Delta T Fan Coil Units suited for district cooling projects.'

The growing demand for Mekar led to the formation of Mekar Air Handling Units LLC a Joint Venture between Mekar, Italy and the Dubai based Koohiji Group in 2007. The newly opened UAE based facility provides warehousing, assembly and distribution of Mekar range of products across the region.

Cited Arun Tuli, Managing Director of Mekar Air Handling Units LLC, 'For over two decades, Mekar has been on the cutting edge of technology and innovation and its equipment has stood the test of time in the region given its climatic conditions. Mekar can customize AHUs and FCUs to suit different project specifications.'

Tuli explained that district cooling and chilled water applications in the regional air-conditioning market have become one of the most important components within projects as air quality and temperature control within buildings determines the overall comfort factor. Mekar products have not only passed stringent performance testing at independent laboratories in Europe but have also demonstrated eminent quality results at these tests.

Commenting on Mekar's participation in Batimat, Tuli said, 'Mekar has enhanced its sales efforts in the Abu Dhabi region by servicing directly from its Middle East office and this pivotal global event serves as an ideal awareness building and business generating platform for the booming construction segment in this part of the world.'

Mekar's stand B6 is located within the Italian Pavilion of Batimat Abu Dhabi.
