Dubai Investments’ unit to manufacture solar glazing solutions in UAE, GCC

Dubai - Mubasher: Emirates Glass, a leading glass processing company in the region and a subsidiary of Dubai Investments, has signed a deal with Australia-based ClearVue Technologies Limited.

The five-year manufacturing and distribution agreement aims to bring advanced solar glazing solutions to the UAE and wider GCC market, according to a press release.

Under the partnership, the production is expected to commence later this year.

The agreement enables Emirates Glass to locally manufacture ClearVue’s solar-integrated glass that allows glass to generate electricity from sunlight while maintaining clarity and high-performance insulation.

Moreover, the unit will hold non-exclusive distribution rights across the UAE and the GCC region, meeting the high demand for sustainable building materials in sun-rich environments.

This joint deal reflects the growing market appetite for clean, renewable energy solutions embedded into building materials.

ClearVue’s Integrated Solar Façade maximizes on-site renewable energy generation for a sustainable building envelope. This allows buildings to lower their reliance on conventional power sources while enhancing natural light and thermal performance.

ClearVue Solar Façade solutions are engineered to seamlessly deploy standard curtainwall and framing systems while meeting the most stringent fire rating requirements for high-rise buildings.

Rizwanulla Khan, Executive President of Emirates Glass, said: “As the construction sector continues to evolve, the need for energy-efficient, high-performance building materials is more urgent than ever.”

“This collaboration aligns with our commitment to sustainable innovation and reinforces our position at the forefront of the regional glass industry,” Khan added.

Doug Hunt, Global CEO of ClearVue Technologies, commented: “Emirates Glass is a recognized leader in the Middle East’s glass manufacturing sector, and we are pleased to collaborate with them as we expand our global footprint.”

“The UAE and GCC are ideal markets for our solar facade solutions, given the region’s focus on sustainability and abundance of sunlight,” Hunt mentioned.

In the first half (H1) of 2025, Dubai Investments logged net profits before tax worth AED 546.28 million, compared to AED 431.68 million in H1-24.
