Riyadh, December 15, 2022 - Al Masaood Bergum - a part of Al Masaood Group and one of the UAE’s leading modular building system providers is participating in the ‘Construction Technology Festival’, taking place in KSA, on December 14 and 15, 2022 in Riyadh.

Al Masaood Bergum focuses on two innovative construction solutions - Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) and Hybrid Modular Building Systems (HMS). Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) is an engineered solid wood panel that is prefabricated and produced from a highly sustainable carbon-sequestering substance. In addition to offering strong structural capabilities, thermal and acoustic qualities, and other advantages, it also speeds up construction by 40 per cent and makes better use of labor by 30 per cent and decreases waste.

Meanwhile, Hybrid Modular Building Solution (HMS) is a rapidly growing cold- formed material used by Al Masaood Bergum to make the construction process easier and products more sustainable. The construction solution, which is used in residential and commercial building structures, is recyclable, time efficient, easily transported and installed, with minimal requirement for manpower on site.

Jens Otterstedt, General Manager of Al Masaood Bergum, said: “We are taking part of the Construction Technology Festival, as it provides an excellent platform for players in the sector to highlight their recent offerings to the up-and-coming Saudi projects. After decades of success in the United Arab Emirates, Bergum is establishing itself in Saudi Arabia’s growing construction sector. Construction growth in KSA is anticipated to grow by 3.2 % in 2022 and 4 % between 2023 and 2025.

Our recent wins in the kingdom with major developers reflect our commitment to creating sustainable and environmentally friendly construction solutions that cater to the kingdom’s ambitious sustainable projects and vision to build new futuristic and prosperous communities.”

Held under the esteemed patronage and attendance of His Excellency Majed Al Hogail, The Minister of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and housing, the construction technology festival is bringing together the kingdom’s key government authorities, project developers, contractors, consultants, and Contech companies to share digital use-cases that design, build, and operate major projects faster cheaper and more efficiently.

More than 500 conference attendees, 30 + sponsors, 10 + startups, award winners, and keynote speakers. The region’s leading conference in Saudi Arabia is a great chance to establish new connections and enhance existing relations.

Al Masaood Bergum’s portfolio of services includes end-to-end modular building systems that are known for their high quality, sustainability, safety, and cost-effectiveness.
