Delta Coatings International, a global leader in polyurea protective coatings and sustainable infrastructure solutions, said it has successfully completed a charitable project delivering new roof insulation and waterproofing at the Rashid Centre for People of Determination in Dubai.
In this latest charitable initiative, Delta Coatings had supplied and applied a full roof insulation and waterproofing system.
The solution combined high-performance polyurethane (PU) foam insulation with Delta's cutting-edge DeltaShield TC 100 polyurea coating, delivering long-term protection against heat and moisture, crucial in the UAE's demanding climate, said the company in a statement.
Established in 1994, the Rashid Centre has long been a beacon of hope and opportunity for people of determination from as young as four years old, providing a therapeutic, educational and vocational training environment for students with a variety of physical, sensory and learning disabilities.
The centre has continually evolved to align with the UAE's inclusive vision, offering a curriculum empowering students to achieve independence and gainful employment.
On the key initiative, Sales Director Paul Symons said: "This is about giving back to a country that has provided us with endless opportunities. Our gratitude goes out to the Rashid Centre for People of Determination for allowing us to contribute and for giving us an opportunity to see the remarkable environment they've cultivated."
"It's partnerships like these that reinforce the power of collaboration and compassion. Supporting this fantastic institution aligns perfectly with our core values and CSR objectives of empowering communities and enhancing lives through meaningful, impact-driven initiatives," he added.
General Manager Belvin Marx, who led the technical execution of the project, said: "We take immense pride in supporting institutions like the Rashid Centre. The waterproofing and insulation solution not only improves building performance but also contributes to a safer, more comfortable learning environment for students of determination."
This initiative is one of several ways Delta is integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles into its operations.
The company's new headquarters and manufacturing facility in Dubai Industrial City, which is currently under development, will feature rooftop solar energy systems and sustainably sourced building materials to lower overall emissions and energy use.
