According to him, the hub will feature state-of-the-art modern, open-plan, workspaces fostering collaboration among Delta's growing international team.
It will also include customer engagement areas showcasing the strength and versatility of polyurea-based coatings.
The plant will triple current manufacturing output and warehouse space, with scalable infrastructure to accommodate continued growth and cater for increasing product demand, it stated.
The site will also house a cutting-edge R&D Center of Excellence. This advanced laboratory will focus on developing next-generation polyurea products tailored to the challenging regional climates and client-specific needs, ensuring Delta Coatings remains an international leader in innovation, it added.
The new facility, which is targeted for completion and commissioning in December 2025, is located in Dubai Industrial City, just 20 minutes from Dubai World Central Airport and Jebel Ali Port, and within 45 minutes of Abu Dhabi, providing strategic access to key markets across the GCC and beyond.
According to Delta Coatings, a Graco HPCF equipment training hub will be established within the facility, serving as a regional center for HPCF spray equipment demonstrations, rapid maintenance and repair services and hands-on training programs for coating applicators.
