The company, for whom this was their first venture into the Middle Eastern market, enjoyed a successful week, signing no less than 45 deals for its noise control barriers.
Andrew Murphy, managing director, commented: “We came here to test the market…and we have been very surprised by the uptake of the product, the understanding of the product; for us it has been an amazing show.” “We’ve just arrived in the Middle East having been invited by various projects, including the FIFA World Cup 2022 bid, as well as the new rail network in Qatar.
We’ve also received interest from Dubai International Airport as well as a number of contracting companies. Really, the market brought us here.” Attracting on average 50,000 people over three days, the Big 5 event brings together the most comprehensive range of building and construction companies and products in the Middle East, as well as the chance to attend seminars and hear about new opportunities in the quickly developing region.
