UNIVERSAL Paint and Chemical Industries (Chemipaint) continues to boost its portfolio of prominent projects in the region, with the most recent addition being the prestigious Abu Dhabi Exhibition Centre (Adnec).

The company recently completed the flooring for parking areas A and B, new lounges and the main Adnec building. It supplied and applied 4,000 drums of Chemishield Silk, an anti-carbonation system, and 2,000 drums of stucco to achieve the desired look. It commenced work last September after clinching a Dh6-million ($1.63 million) contract for the project. “This was a very important project for us and will help further strengthen our presence in the market,” says a company spokesman.
“The selection of Chemipaint products by designers of this high-profile project reflects their trust in the durability, aesthetics and high quality of our products. Being part of such a development helps Chemipaint project itself as one of the most competent companies at both levels of manufacturing and contracting,” he says.
By working with some of the largest developers and delivering high-quality paints, the company says it expects to steadily move towards its goals of achieving major growth in the region.
Chemipaint has undertaken and is currently involved with a number of important projects in the UAE including Dubai Maritime City, a residential complex in Fujairah, and the Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort and Movenpick Spa and Resort, both in Abu Dhabi.
Part of the Lebanon-based Chemipaint, the company started its UAE operations in 2005 in Musaffah, Abu Dhabi.
Manufacturing the same product range as the Lebanon plant, Chemipaint offers architectural paints, primers and sealers, varnishes and wood preservatives. Its internal decorative and external texture paints are backed by years of experience and technical expertise. Chemipaint also manufactures heavy-duty industrial maintenance products such as epoxy systems, two-pack polyurethane paints, thermoplastic acrylic paints, courtyard paints, waterproofing products and systems, elastomeric and anti-carbonation paints, chlorinated rubber paints and paint removers. The company continuously invests in research and development programmes, which has improved its product offering and led to the creation of breakthrough manufacturing technologies.
