Cavotec, a leading supplier of environmentally friendly power solutions, has opened its Abu Dhabi office, as part of its ongoing regional expansion.

The office is to support its strong regional presence in the UAE capital and to allow the company to be closer to its partners. Cavotec is also soon planning to open another office in Qatar, as part of its strong commitment to serve the GCC.

Thomas Widegren, regional manager and executive chairman of Cavotec Middle East, said: “The opening of a second office in the UAE reflects our determination to be a strong player in the UAE and GCC."

Cavotec recently sponsored the A380 touchdown conference that was held in Dubai. The conference was attended by the most influential figures from the world of aviation and discussed the latest developments in the industry.

Cavotec Middle East has recently installed 120 revolutionary pop-up units in the new Emirates Engineering hangar at Dubai International Airport. It also fitted similar equipment specially designed for the A380 in Concourse 1 of Dubai Airport and is supplying power and air supply equipment for 27 gates at the new Concourse 2 which was the very first airport to develop dedicated A380 gates by fully integrating Cavotec's pop-up systems for the A380 aircraft.

“The recent expansion into the new Abu Dhabi office solidifies Cavotec’s commitments to the region, the Abu Dhabi office will work in line with our Dubai operations, helping us be closer to our partners and provide them with the best in technology,” said  Poul Nielsen, General Manager of Cavotec Abu Dhabi.

Another important part of the company’s product range is the Tunnel System. This system is based on the concept of providing all necessary services to the aircraft from below the apron tarmac. By connecting through pop-up or hatch type systems positioned close to the aircraft, the remainder of the tarmac is kept totally free for other airport traffic. -TradeArabia News Service
