The GCC has emerged as a huge market for automatic, garage and industrial doors due to the steady performance of the regional economy and improving standards of living, according to Deutsche Messe Dubai MD Angela Schaschen.
“Innovative access control systems and hi-tech doors and gates will continue to be in great demand with the growing number of security-sensitive projects being developed such as airports, industrial facilities, multi-story car parks, premium residences, office buildings and shopping centres,” said Schaschen.
By the end of 2010, the world demand for automatic and electric doors is poised to exceed 100 million, with the GCC expected to account for a significant percentage in view of the massive development projects being undertaken in the region.
