UAE-based Bahri & Mazroei Trading Company (BMTC) said it has successfully provided innovative and sustainable lighting solutions to the Jumeirah jogging track project in Dubai, UAE.

The track is part of the ambitious Jumeirah Corniche Development Project that spans over 14 km, extending from the Dubai Marina Beach Resort and Spa up to Burj Al Arab Hotel.

Part of the Bahri & Mazroei Group, a leading provider of solutions for building and infra-development segments in the Gulf, BMTC said the lighting solutions include Belgium-headquartered Schreder’s state-of-the-art ModulLum multi-functional column with an LED (light emitting diode) system that provides lighting with aesthetic coherence.

The new system has the efficiency to provide light for a longer period with lesser power consumption and lower maintenance requirements than other lighting systems available in the market, it stated.

The smart pole has multiple lighting configurations and additional features suitable for the needs in the modern urban lighting space.

The versatility of the ModulLum range, with its different modules as well as variable diameters and heights, guarantees a perfect match between the column and its architectural environment, said a statement from BMTC.

The installation is expected to enhance visitor experience to Jumeirah Corniche as well as facilitate jogging activities in the evening, it added.

Esam Al Mazroei, the group managing director, said: "We see this as the beginning of a new LED era in the city’s leisure destinations in terms of functional use of lighting systems that meets the required levels of safety and re-enforces identity of this modern city as well."

Mazroei said the system, with its innovative design and power saving technology, will reflect Dubai’s global standing in design, innovation and creativity.

"The smart pole integrated multi-functional solution offers an array of features including light-on-demand options, bi-directional communication, integration of telecom and utilities to name a few. We believe that the ModulLum range will set the standard for today and future installations,” he added.

BMTC have supplied lighting solutions to a wide range of projects including Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, the Nad Al Hammar tunnel, Sheikh Zayed Road, Ferrari Theme Park and Sowwah Square.-TradeArabia News Service
