Emirates Glass, one of the leading processors of architectural flat glass in the Middle East and a subsidiary of Glass LLC, wholly-owned by Dubai Investments, has embarked on a major plant at a cost of AED 100M to increase the coating capacity further to meet growing demand for its products. "The expansion will increase the coating capacity by 3M square metres per annum to bring total capacity to 3.7M square meters of flat glass products," said Mr Z Yazbeck, Deputy General Manager of Emirates Glass. "This will meet additional demand created by the recent unprecedented growth in the Gulf construction industry," he added. Currently, at full utilisation of its 700,000 square meters capacity for coated architectural glass, Emirates is supplying its products to various projects in and around the region.
