The MEP Awards 2009 is the premier platform for the mechanical, electrical and plumbing sector in the UAE to recognise its achievements, honour those individuals and companies who made these happen, and to acknowledge the latest innovations, technology and processes that have helped drive down costs and ensure adherence to best-practice standards.

It is also an opportunity to highlight the excellence in MEP design and installation underpinning those iconic projects contributing to the evolving and rapidly maturing construction landscape in the UAE.

The combination of a global economic downturn and the advent of environmental awareness in the construction industry has resulted in the MEP sector playing a pivotal role in the advent of ‘green’ building in the UAE.

It is an old but valid maxim that extraordinary circumstances lead to extraordinary achievements. The MEP Awards 2009 is the perfect occasion to acknowledge the sterling efforts and achievements of the sector in ensuring its continued viability and innovation in light of current constraints and global economic volatility.

The MEP Awards have been growing in stature and popularity over the years, with a steady increase in the number and diversity of entries. Last year saw the launch of our inaugural MEP Conference. This only serves to underpin the status of the MEP Awards as the sector’s leading industry event.
