UAE – A COOL PLACE UNDER SCORCHING SUN THANKS TO POWER BREEZER, NOW EVEN COOLER

All around the globe, a blazing heatwave  is occurring even in places where it is normally not very hot, such as Europe, Japan, and Canada, which set its all-time high temperature record in early July. According to the U.N., Sodankyla, Finland hit 89.2°F on July 17, which was a record for that location. The headlines about these sizzling temperatures are…

All around the globe, a blazing heatwave is occurring even in places where it is normally not very hot, such as Europe, Japan, and Canada, which set its all-time high temperature record in early July. According to the U.N., Sodankyla, Finland hit 89.2°F on July 17, which was a record for that location.

The headlines about these sizzling temperatures are not raising as many eyebrows in desert countries, however. Sweltering temperatures are the norm in these areas throughout most of the year. 

United Arab Emirates – Where the Heat Is Always On

The UAE is located in the North East of the Arabian Peninsula and is made up of seven emirates: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ra’s al-Khaimah, Ajman, Umm al-Quwain, and Fujairah.

It shares borders with Saudi Arabia and Oman. The UAE coast stretches for more than 404 miles along the southern shore of the Persian Gulf. South and west of Abu Dhabi, vast, rolling sand dunes merge into the Rub al-Khali (Empty Quarter) of Saudi Arabia. With a population of over nine million people, the UAE is booming. Its climate is very hot throughout the summer with high humidity in the coastal regions, while the winter is warm. In other words, the UAE has a desert climate with very little natural relief from the heat. August is the hottest month there, with an average temperature of 96°F. The coldest is January at 64°F. 

Tourism, Construction, Manufacturing Going Strong

With the extraction of crude oil and natural gas being the strongest industry segment, tourism, construction and manufacturing are going strong in the UAE. In fact, tourism accounts for more than 10% of its GDP. Over 12 million tourists visit the UAE each year with Dubai being the main attraction. Construction is also vital to this rapidly growing economy. The same applies to manufacturing. Both industry segments contributed in 2014 with 9% to the GDP.

All of these industries in the UAE’s desert climate require cooling options for workers and visitors alike. Central air conditioning often is not available. This is particularly true when it comes to outdoor or partially covered spaces such as construction sites, building projects, hospitality events, outdoor functions, sporting games, and tournaments. Portable Breezer Mobile Cooling products are perfect for these environments, with a long history of providing effective climate control solutions in a variety of applications. 

A Powerful Solution for Mobile Climate Control

When it comes to mitigating the effects of high temperatures and humidity in the globe’s hot spots, Breezer Mobile Cooling has two options, both of which provide a quick ROI. The portable, installation-free Power Breezer provides powerful eco-friendly cooling for up to five hours. The compact O2 is perfect for smaller locations where reliable cooling is needed.

Breezer Mobile Cooling products are available worldwide to instantly mitigate heat and improve productivity, safety, and comfort. Contact our UAE office at +971-527222377 for all your cooling needs or visit breezercooling.com for more information.

Why Momentive says city data centers need sealant built for 1,000-foot towers

Why Momentive says city data centers need sealant built for 1,000-foot towers

Planners are pushing urban data centers toward glass facades. Bull argues high-load structural silicone glazing—like the 30 psi UltraGlaze SSG4600 used on Austin’s 1,025-foot Waterline tower—can help support heavier security glass and tighter enclosure performance in new multi-story builds.

  • 01When a city insists a data center look like an office building, the sealant holding the glass ends up doing work for the cooling plant.
  • 02Rifle-rated UL 752 Level 7 glazing runs about 15 pounds per square foot, so the security rating and the sealant's 30 psi design strength belong in the same specification review.
  • 03The supertall-sealant case applies mainly to new urban builds; most operating U.S. data centers can't shut down for facade replacement and harden their glass through retrofit shields instead.

IndexBox sees panelized buildings growing 5.3% a year if panel plants keep up

IndexBox sees panelized buildings growing 5.3% a year if panel plants keep up

IndexBox forecasts the global panelized buildings market to grow 5.3% a year from 2026 to 2035, with residential housing at about 45% of 2026 demand. Factory capacity is the catch. Limited mass timber and specialized steel framing capacity will hold growth back in some regions, and IndexBox expects investment in new plants and automation to ease those bottlenecks by the late 2020s.

  • 01Panels swap scarce framing crews for factory hours, and through the late 2020s the factory hours for mass timber and specialized steel framing are scarce too.
  • 02Housing is 45% of panelized demand, but commercial and institutional projects are expected to grow faster because owners are paying for schedule certainty; warehouse and campus owners are closest to that shift.
  • 03Mid-scale volumetric modular plants are estimated to need 60% to 70% utilization to break even; panel lines use different equipment, but the report argues the same fixed-cost logic can make order-book visibility important before adding shifts or lines.

Requests for Paebbl's carbon-storing cement substitute far outstrip what it can produce

Requests for Paebbl's carbon-storing cement substitute far outstrip what it can produce

Rebond 300 replaces up to 30% of cement in concrete with no equipment changes. In a Holcim and Goldbeck floor slab trial at C30/37, its workability, setting time and finishing matched the reference mix. Demand exceeds what Paebbl can produce, and closing that gap is now its main challenge.

  • 01After Rebond 300 runs through a standard ready-mix plant and hits C30/37 with no schedule change, buyers’ next questions shift to supply and allocation—how many tonnes Paebbl can ship—alongside price and how much of the mix to commit.
  • 02If Rebond 300 displaces up to 30% of cement yet can cut embodied carbon by up to 40%, the figures imply a negative footprint beyond simple substitution; Paebbl cites a verified -149 kg CO2e per tonne of product, with results depending on mix design.
