The four-day Front exhibition debuted last month in the Middle East to showcase the latest range of doors, windows, blinds, roofs, walls and products and technology used in fabricating and maintaining them.

The Front, which was held at the Expo Centre, Sharjah, is sponsored by the UAE Contractors Association and Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
During the launch of the show, Tony Christopher of Gulf Construction presented a paper on opportunities in the windows sector.
Many of the exhibitors reported a satisfactory participation at the event. Among them was Doors and Wardrobes which expressed optimism at positive results achieved during the four-day exhibition which concluded recently.
“We expect to process orders worth Dh500,000 ($136,200) from buyers coming from Saudi Arabia, Russia and Bahrain as well as local homeowners,” said Asif Noor, general manager of Doors and Wardrobes. “We participated in this exhibition to expand our local customer profile. Following the success of our Salahuddin Deira showroom, we will open another one in Abu Dhabi.
“A second showroom in Muscat will be inaugurated by the end of the year,” he added.
Doors and Wardrobes is a brand of Home Designs. The company has also been involved in turnkey projects such as Emaar’s Emirates Hills. In addition to its new range of doors, Door and Wardrobes exhibited its fine range of jacuzzis, bathroom accessories and sanitary fittings.
