UAE: Joinery in the
Middle East
Our woodwork offering is expanding, and increasing the LOR presence
in the UAE. Here’s a little more on our middle eastern master craft,
and the new facilities supporting it
F
or 30 years we have crafted outstanding
woodwork for discerning clients in some
of the world’s most prestigious locations,
creating superior and unique environments
which reflect our patrons’ taste, style and aspirations.
From our joinery facilities in Dubai, we specialise
in the design and craft of high-quality bespoke
furniture and decorative woodwork, featuring
the exclusive finish only individually tailored,
hand-crafted workmanship can guarantee.
Our designers and craftspeople specialise in the
concept, supply and installation of inspirational
joinery products and full interior fit-out services.
We have successfully realised the dreams of
the most demanding of customers – working
in locations ranging from royal palaces to
private homes, commercial developments and
even luxury yachts. We have delivered these
projects for ruling families, prominent individuals,
institutions and elite brands, including Cartier
showrooms in Bahrain and Dubai, a BMW
Showroom in Abu Dhabi and the executive
office of Emirates Towers.
As the demand has increased, so has the need
for bigger, safer and more advanced facilities.
The biggest, safest and most advanced in the
UAE, in fact. Over the course of four weeks, the
existing joinery factory moved from a 100,000 sq. ft
facility in Al Quoz, Dubai to a 500,000 sq. ft one
in Jebel Ali, Dubai. Production and delivery
continued throughout the entire process. Now, the
workforce has safe use of four new state-of-the-art
machines featuring a new assembly line set-up,
expected to increase efficiency by up to 20%.
This relocation has made Laing O’Rourke Joinery
one of the largest joinery facilities in the UAE.
It is already garnering interest from potential
clients, which I am hopeful will convert into new
assignments, helping us achieve the target of
creating a robust and sustainable order book.
We have always focused on delivering high quality
products, in time, to the satisfaction of the client
while maintaining LOR’s Health & Safety standards
and profitability. The relocation will surely bring
us a step closer in achieving our ambitions.
