SHOW FACTS ❍ ❍
D ubai is
fast becoming
known as the centre of
innovation and engineering,
with projects including the breathtaking Palm Deira island and recently
announced plans for the 1km high Nakheel tower. Already regarded as a haven
for business and industry, the United Arab Emirates has clearly affirmed its aim to
become the high-tech destination of the future.
With such lofty ambitions to partner the already excellent facilities and hospitality, Dubai was
always going to be an ideal location for a major tube and pipe exhibition. The first Tube Arabia held
two years ago was a notable success, with over 110 exhibitors and a large number of visitors from
the Middle East, Europe and China.
Tube Arabia will take place for the second time from 10-13 January 2009 in halls 3 and 4 of the
Dubai international exhibition centre. It will again be joined by the established 9th Tekno event,
which is geared towards the region’s machinery, metalworking and machine tools industry.
The event will occupy a total exhibit space of over 9,000m2 with expectations of
more than 350 exhibitors from 28 countries. It is clear that against such a
backdrop of lucrative business and ingenuity, Tekno/Tube Arabia will
serve as a powerful platform for the demonstration of an
impressive range of tube and pipe products
and machinery.
