Dubai Investments has announced the commencement of construction for the second production line of its wholly owned subsidiary, Emirates Float Glass (EFG), within its facility in the Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi (KEZAD).
The inauguration ceremony was attended by Khalid Bin Kalban, Vice Chairman and CEO of Dubai Investments, Mohammed Ghareeb, Chief Experience Officer of KEZAD Group, and other senior officials from Dubai Investments, as well as government authorities. The representatives from key technology, civil works, and contract management partners underscored the collaborative effort behind this milestone, said a statement.
“The second float line marks a transformative milestone for the UAE’s industrial manufacturing landscape. With dual float lines and the introduction of Ultra Clear Glass, the group is expanding capacity, enhancing product offerings and providing customers with a complete range of high-performance glass solutions under one roof. This project underscores Dubai Investments’ commitment to industrial innovation, sustainable growth and economic diversification,” said Khalid Bin Kalban.
Emirates Float Glass (EFG) is expanding its operations, with an additional investment of over US $163.35mn. This expansion will establish EFG as the sole glass manufacturer in the region operating dual float lines, significantly enhancing its production capabilities.
A key aspect of this expansion is the introduction of the Ultra Clear Glass production line, a groundbreaking capability in the GCC and the Middle East. In conjunction with EFG’s magnetron sputtering coater, this new line will provide a comprehensive range of high-transmission, low-emissivity coatings, catering to the growing demand for premium architectural, solar, and industrial glass applications, the firm said.
By integrating this new line with EFG’s other glass subsidiaries, Emirates Glass and Saudi American Glass, customers will gain a single point of contact for all their glass requirements, from standard float glass to advanced, coated specialty products.
EFG’s commitment to local value creation, sustainable practices, and quality operations is further evidenced by its ICV certification and inclusion in the Abu Dhabi Economic Department’s Golden List. This recognition underscores dedication to contributing to the region’s economic growth and environmental responsibility, the statement explained.
Construction on the expansion project is currently underway, with the second float line expected to be fully operational by late 2027 or early 2028. Once operational, Emirates Float Glass will solidify its position in float-glass manufacturing, offering production capacity, technological innovation, and a comprehensive product range that will cater to the diverse needs of customers across the GCC and beyond, it concluded.
