Cavotec Middle East FZE, the leading supplier of environmentally friendly power solutions, has opened its Wibe Technical Academy.

Cavotec’s intention is to regularly hold courses and train installers as well as consultants in Wibe’s Cable Support Systems, said an official spokesman.

“We are very pleased to initiate the academy for the first time in the Middle East, our objective is to train technicians here in very simple yet advanced technology, which is both time and cost efficient. There is a growing need within the region for technical training centres and our mission is to always provide the region with the most advanced and innovative technology which also is cost effective and simple to use,” said executive chairman of Cavotec Middle East Thomas Widegren.

Founded in 1929, Wibe was the first producer of cable ladders in Sweden and has for more than 70 years been the market leader and foremost in the development of new products and systems.

“In the burgeoning regional construction boom searching for the necessary skills is always a challenge, This lack of skill is a burden on companies resources, whatever their industry, be it installing electric cables in towers or airports, the Wibe system is ideal for Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) installers and contractors,” said managing director, Cavotec Middle East, Jurgen Strommer.

Wibe is an all encompassing technology that provides ladders that are installed both vertically and horizontally to carry electrical cables over very long areas, which is ideal for high rise towers. – TradeArabia News Service
