Dubai is very often described with one word: Modern. And while the architecture of the Etihad Museum is extremely modern, this is where you go to explore the history of The United Arab Emirates.
The 25,000 sqm museum is spread over eight pavilions and opened in January 2017 in the very location where the seven emirates were first united in 1971.
This is also represented in the unique design of the building with its curved roof - which was inspired by the shape of the UAE’s constitution - and in the seven pillars which represent the pens that the seven founders used to sign the document.
The Etihad Museum is all about the history of the United Arab Emirates. It collects, preserves, and displays items which are related to the union’s cultural, military, scientific, social, and political history.
MEP contractor: Al Shafar United.

With the rich history and culture of UAE, a lot of highly important artifacts and old jewels need to be preserved. Therefore, it is very important to maintain the right temperature and the best indoor climate to provide the best protection in a harsh climate like that of UAE.
Frese has supplied 175 of its state of the art Frese OPTIMA Compact PCIV to cater to the needs of precise indoor climate and maintain the performance of the building to the highest standards.
