METITO (Overseas) Limited has installed a world-class
sea water desalination plant, to supply 150,000
gallons of water a day to cater for the needs of
the Dreamland Aqua Park at Umm Al Qawain in the
United Arab Emirates.
The company, which has its headquarters for Europe,
Asia and Africa in Sharjah, has installed a state
of the art reverse osmosis plant to treat seawater
for the swimming pools and range of exciting water
slides and features at the water park.
In total the Park has 4 million gallons of water
in its pools and slides but requires freshly treated
water every day to replace that lost through evaporation
and spillage from the 250,000-plus visitors to Dreamland
Aqua Park every year.
METITO (Overseas) Limited Regional Managing Director
Mr Fady Juez said: “As a UAE-based company
we are delighted to use our expertise and technology
to help deliver quality treated water every day
for the highly demanding requirements of the water
park. |

The
quality and safety of the treated water is of paramount
importance to a visitor attraction like this and
we are very proud to be making our contribution
to the local tourism industry and helping thousands
of families to enjoy themselves in water that has
been treated to the highest standards.”
The scope of work for METITO in this project included
turn key design, engineering, fabrication, supply,
installation and commissioning. Water treated by
the company is suitable for both drinking and pool
use.
Dreamland Aqua Park Deputy Manager Mr Nabil Barakat
said: “The safety and enjoyment of our visitors
is of utmost importance and we need to ensure they
enjoy themselves in an aquatic environment that
has water treated to the highest standards.
We have found that METITO is a quality company that
can respond to our needs quickly and professionally
and help to ensure that we deliver a first class
experience to over 250,000 people who visit us every
year.”
