Speeding up fire safety solutions in the Middle East, global wireless solutions provider Ramtech has announced an exclusive distribution deal in Saudi Arabia
Under the agreement, Ramtech’s product range, which includes the renowned Wireless Evacuation System (WES3) and REACT platform, will be distributed through Mimar, a pioneering provider of equipment and engineering solutions in the Saudi Arabian construction market.
Impact on the construction landscape
Ramtech’s solutions are poised to have a significant impact on the construction landscape in Saudi Arabia, safeguarding sites during the temporary construction phase. Already deployed on some of the largest projects in the Middle East last year, these solutions are proving their worth. In June, the firm reported success in protecting a US$2.5bn Dubai megaproject, Sobha Hartland in Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum City.
James Pecz, head of global business development and customer service at Ramtech, said, "Partnering with Mimar represents a significant step forward for Ramtech as we continue to expand our global footprint. Mimar's reputation for excellence and its deep understanding of the Saudi market make it an ideal partner for us, and we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead."
In 2018, official estimates placed the value of construction in the Middle East in excess of US$1 trillion. Saudi Arabian capital projects led the way at US$1.2 trillion (pre-execution stage), setting the stage for a wealth of opportunity for the new partnership to help redefine construction standards in the region.
Omar Alsakkaf, managing partner at Mimar, said, "We are thrilled to collaborate with Ramtech and bring their innovative solutions to the Saudi market. This partnership aligns perfectly with our commitment to providing our clients with the best-in-class products and services, and we look forward to the positive impact it will have on the construction industry in Saudi Arabia."
