Industries  is our middle name

Our journey began with power distribution.
We were the first to design a composite solution for the industry.
Then our zeal forced us to ask ourselves "what's our next challenge?".

Brick by Brick - Product by Product - Industry by Industry : we've made our mark.

Power Generation

When a short in a electrical board or a transformer overheating be the difference between a normal day and a power outage, GRP Industries products are an absolute necessity. GRP Industries collaborates with electricity authorities in the Middle East along with electrical contractors and switchgear assemblers across high, medium and low voltage classes to custom design enclosures that fit the right requirement. Our products are designed to provide ease in carrying out installations by our clients and reliably protect against the harsh outdoor climate of the Middle East over time.
In the Middle East, the six countries of the GCC have outpaced the region in infrastructure development for power generation and consumption since the 1990s. Currently, the GCC alone will add 76.8 gigawatts (GW) of capacity for power generation between 2016 and 2020 (pan-Arab energy investment bank Apicorp estimates). GCC electricity consumption is expected to reach 856 terawatt-hours by 2020, requiring 100 GW of additional power over the next 10 years to meet the demand (source: www.middleeastelectricity.com). Strong economic and demographic growth, driven in part by the GCC economies’ highly energy-intensive industrialization programs, has led to a dramatic surge in power consumption. As the demand increases, the GCC countries will continue to invest in power sector infrastructure development. The GCC countries have collaborated in developing a joint Gulf power grid, to develop the region's electricity network and also help unify the six countries. Historically, within the GCC, the Kingdom Saudi Arabia has lead investments in total power projects with the United Arab Emirates coming in second (source: www.venturesonsite.com).

Water Treatment

Manufacturer of GRP/FRP of Enclosures and Kiosks in UAE

90% of urban water supply and sanitation services are provided by public entities; such is the common practice in MENA countries. GRP Industries is the preferred vendor by these public utilities within the scope of metering in the industry. Metering is considered good practice in water distribution and is widespread in developed nations; while in developing countries it is estimated that half of all urban water supply systems are metered and the tendency is increasing. Our metering enclosures are installed along supply pipelines and across the distribution network in commercial, industrial and residential zones. Our design requirements being weatherproof, secure meter mounting arrangement, security from theft and lasting meter visibility.
Metering serves four key objectives. First, it provides an incentive to conserve water which protects water resources (environmental objective). Second, it can postpone costly system expansion and saves energy and chemical costs (economic objective). Third, it allows a utility to better locate distribution losses (technical objective). Fourth, it allows to charge for water based on use, which is perceived by many as the fairest way to allocate the costs of water supply to users
More than in any other region, water in MENA is a development issue. Consequently, and over the last few decades, MENA countries have invested in infrastructure. Water supply coverage has increased remarkably. More than three quarters of the population in MENA countries now have access to clean water and improved sanitation. Many countries have completed major investments in water storage infrastructure and have invested heavily in expanding irrigation systems. Furthermore, the MENA region leads the world in applying non-traditional water technologies such as desalination and wastewater re-use (source: www.worldbank.org).

Oil & Gas

Manufacturer of GRP/FRP of Enclosures and Kiosks in UAE

The days of simply drilling a hole in the ground and striking oil are long gone. Oil and gas reserves are becoming harder to reach than ever before, so companies are pushing the boundaries and exploring in ever more remote locations and extreme conditions. It takes place from drilling rigs, ships or barges, and land rigs. The industry includes the global processes of exploration, extraction, refining and transporting (often by oil tankers and pipelines). The remote locations and harsh weather conditions pose mandatory requirements for equipment protection with low maintenance. GRP Industries solves this problem with our composite products which are weatherproof and corrosion free. Example: Our battery enclosures or kiosks protect off-grid power equipment and our GRP gratings or ladders provide the corrosion free infrastructure on site.
Home to the Gulf Region, GRP Industries operates in the oil and gas centric part of the world and works along with E&P and EPC companies to gather requirements and design custom solutions. In addition, our products have been installed in the United States which has surged its oil and gas production by means of hydraulic fracturing, also referred to as fracking.
The Gulf Region, comprised of the six countries of the GCC plus Iran and Iraq, holds 56% of the world’s conventional oil and gas proven reserves. Alone, the United Arab Emirates possesses the world's sixth largest proven oil reserve and the seventh largest natural gas reserve (Source: British Petroleum Statistical Review). Upstream oil and gas companies within UAE are continuously investing in new projects to increase the country’s crude oil production capacity close to 4 million barrels per day by 2020.

Solar

Manufacturer of GRP/FRP of Enclosures and Kiosks in UAE

As the cost of solar electricity has fallen, the number of grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems has grown into the millions and utility-scale solar power stations with hundreds of megawatts are being built. Solar PV is rapidly becoming an inexpensive, low-carbon technology to harness renewable energy from the Sun. The International Energy Agency projected in 2014 that under its "high renewables" scenario, by 2050, solar photovoltaics and concentrated solar power (CSP) would contribute 16 and 11 percent, respectively, of the worldwide electricity consumption, and solar would be the world's largest source of electricity. We are passionate to participate in the energy revolution by working alongside with solar integration companies by manufacturing battery enclosures that house the cabling and storage batteries; which are commonly either lithium-ion or lead acid batteries. For lead acid batteries, our design incorporates the critical factors of acid discharge drainage, battery accessi9 bility and ventilation to keep hydrogen gas from accumulating to dangerous levels. Because solar applications can be in hard-to-reach or remote, the ability to install the batteries and let them operate over long periods without maintenance is essential.
The United States, Europe and China have been at the forefront of renewable energy and have the highest solar installations in the world. India is expected to join this group by 2050 with installations growing at a rapid pace. The MENA region is at the tipping point for PV power with demand expected to soar. Solar project investments in MENA grew from about $160 million in 2010 to $3.5 billion in 2015, and the size of investment is expected to increase even further.
In the Gulf region, it is the city of Dubai that is leading the way. The Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 was announced which now aims to provide 7% of its power using clean energy sources by 2020, 25% by 2030 and 75% by 2050. Solar is now planned to contribute 25% of Dubai’s power needs by 2030, when PV will be mandatory on rooftops. In 2015, Dubai formed the Shams Dubai solar initiative which supports distributed rooftop installations through financing tools and supports schemes being provided to commercial, industrial and residential. It is the only city at this time to offer a net metering scheme, but others are expected to follow.
Dubai has completed the first phase of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park in 2015 and subsequent phases are also in the pipeline. The final size of the park was upped from 1 GW to 5 GW, with completion expected by 2030 making it the largest of its kind in the world.

Fire & Safety

In a crisis or fire, being able to instantly place and access safety equipment and fire extinguishers can be the difference in saving lives or property. GRP Industries Fire Cabinets are fire retardant and designed with the respective mounting arrangement of the stored equipment to allow easy access a time of emergency. In addition, our gel-coating process embeds red or any other safety colours into the external surface of the cabinet, as opposed to a spray painting, making our products resistant to color fading, UV stabilised, well marked and discernible.
Fire safety is at the core in the planning of the plethora of high rises, so it’s not surprising that the Gulf Region is a hotbed of interest from global fire and safety solution providers. The surge in demand for fire detection and suppression equipment in the GCC is spearheaded by Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Due to the scale and complexity, fire detection, suppression, and evacuation equipment in high-rise buildings are among the most advanced fire detection technologies in the market and mandatory across the region. GRP Industries continuously evolves its product design by paying attention to these trends and consulting with global providers.

Construction

Mining

Manufacturer of GRP/FRP of Enclosures and Kiosks in UAE

The Mining industry consists of the discovery, valuation, development, exploitation, processing, and marketing of useful minerals, such as coal, iron, or precious metals. They locate minerals and removes them in the most economical and efficient way possible for use by various industries, such as energy production and construction.
Although a long staid industry, mining operations have had to evolve along with the rapid expansion in technology. With new sensors, meters and general advancement in electronics, mines are a demanding environment for any electronic product or equipment. In order to protect such sensitive equipment, enclosures also have had to evolve and be customized to meet the rigors of such environment. GRP Enclosures, with IP66 rating, can be customized with engineering expertise to ensure optimal protection of high value equipment on the mine site. The enclosures are water–proof, keep the dust out and can be modified for the use of standard features like cabling for power and data, user interfaces and screens. Owing to its non-corrosive property, strength and durability, our enclosures reduce the impact of excessive heating, and corrosion by chemicals or acids. They also mitigate the risk of vibrations and electromagnetic interferences, which are common on the mine sites. GRP enclosures can be combined with a wide selection of heavy duty mounts, high torque hinges, latches and brackets to produce customized units, which are quick and easy to install.
