Government entities in Dubai came together last week to discuss the installation and maintenance of industrial flooring in warehouses across the emirate.

Over 170 delegates from the Ministry of Public Works, RTA, DEWA and Dubai Airport Fee Zone attended the Complete Concrete Flooring Solutions Seminar, which addressed how the sustainability of concrete flooring systems is vital to reduce waste and cost.

"The co-operation between UAE Society of Engineers, universities, government organisations and authorities, works departments of municipalities and the industry is vitally important for the sustainable development of the UAE construction sector," said Fars Al Mazrooei Contracting floor division manager Mehmet Ozlokmaci.
