DuPont presents dynamic science building and construction solutions at Big 5 Exhibition

DuPont will showcase innovative products to provide comprehensive commercial, industrial, infrastructure and residential construction solutions.

DuPont will launch its latest Surfaces offerings including DuPont Corian Illumination Series, the latest collection from DuPont Corian series inspired by light and DuPont Zodiaq a perfect blend of nature and science providing architects and designers with subtle and stylish materials for modern spaces. DuPont will also showcase latest colour palette of DuPont Corian, DuPont Glass Laminating Solutions, Zonyl, Typar, Powder Coatings and Elvaloy to deliver safety, durability and sustainability.

"One DuPont, a strategic concept works together through an industry initiative offering integrated products and applications solutions to specific industries for example food, construction, transportation and oil & gas. DuPont building and construction solutions are committed to increase the performance of building systems, helping reduce operating costs, reduce energy consumption and help provide safer, healthier environments for more sustainable structures. These advanced concepts and materials are of particular interest to Middle East and Gulf regions where construction and real estate development continue to progress and evolve at a rapid and highly-competitive pace,"

said Andrew Holdsworth, Director Middle East.

Invented by DuPont, DuPont Corian is a solid surface offering superior design possibilities and excellent long-term performance, used both in the home and in many different commercial environments. Available in over 100 colours, Corian can be carved, routed or worked like wood, moulded, thermoformed or inlayed, with the design options are almost limitless. While DuPont Corian Illumination Series allows more light to pass through the material that can be formed, textured and cut - enabling builders to create stunning and inspiring environments.

DuPont Zodiaq is 93% pure quartz crystal, which gives Zodiaq a natural depth and radiance without the imperfections common in unimproved stone. Quartz, one of nature's strongest materials makes Zodiaq an incredibly durable and heat and scratch resistant. Zodiaq is perfect for your home, naturally.

"There's a science to better building and it begins with DuPont Construction Industry Solutions. That's why we're committed to using our dynamic science and expertise in building technology to discover and develop innovative products, integrated systems and services to help deliver homes, industrial and commercial buildings operate more efficiently, reduce energy consumption and help provide safer, healthier environments for the people. These new innovative materials are perfect products to introduce during our participation at the Big 5. These materials extend the superior benefits that open new opportunities for architects and designers, and a refreshing experience for consumers in the Middle East and Gulf region,"

said Tony Azzam, Business Manager, Building Innovations and Construction Industry Leader for Turkey, Middle East, Africa and Pakistan.

DuPont SentryGlas laminating solutions showcased at the Big 5 provide improved personal safety, property protection, public security, energy efficiency and sustainable development through the use of laminated safety glass.

DuPont offers coatings, surface treatments and liners for road, bridge and tunnel applications to ensure performance under challenging environmental and traffic conditions. With more than 30 years of experience, DuPont Typar Geosynthetics is a recognized global solution provider for civil engineering and construction challenges. DuPont Zonyl, another key construction offering provides oil and water repellent treatments that resist stain without changing natural appearance.

"The Middle East and Gulf market is gearing up to meet the residential, health, educational and recreational needs of its rapidly growing population. DuPont is showing up for work at residential and commercial job sites around this region. We are currently working on multiple innovative projects to enable customers reach new heights in architecture and construction of homes, healthcare, skyscrapers, airports, industrial buildings and offices," stated Azzam.

Attended by leading architects, engineers, developers, constructors, builders, and building owners, The Big 5 Exhibition is guaranteed to bring the best of the world's construction technology and products committed to advancing high-performance, energy efficient green building solutions and environmentally friendly technologies.
