Heavy lifting for safe roof installation in Dubai
Al Khaleej Sugar has expanded its storage by building three additional sugar silos in the Dubai Jebel Ali Port Free Zone.

Synthetic resin to protect Ponte da Vagueira
Repairs to the Vagueira Bridge, Portugal, are giving it a new lease of life.

This involves covering the entire 6,000m² surface with a special thick mortar using a flexible synthetic resin.
