Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia



Joe Paternoster, President of DriWater Inc., recently attended Dubai International Convention Center Garden Landscape Middle East.  DriWater was represented by our partners based in Saudi Arabia and Lebanon.  The show was attended by landscape architects, contractors and government officials.  “We spent time working at tree planting projects for the entire region.  There has been a shift to environmental and greening policies.” says Joe Paternoster.
There are a few large projects that DriWater fits very well.  We spent time with the Director General from the Saudi Arabian Minister of Agriculture’s office. “The King is very concerned about water supply but is committed to greening.” Stated Kaleem Abdul, “DriWater can assist in our overall water conservation measures”

The Abu Dhabi government is planning to plant trees along the sides and center annex on the road from Abu Dhabi to the Saudi Arabian boarder.  This will resolve problems from sand movement on this 350 kilometer road.  The project will require millions of trees over the years and the remote nature of the project will make DriWater a cost effective solution.
