It has long been a tradition at Almabani to rise to challenges with a determination to meet deadlines. This confidence stems from the reliance placed on a competent and experienced team well-versed in technical requirements of the task in hand and well-seasoned in the practical intricacies of the work. These vital elements become even more critical when dealing with the refurbishment and renovation of prestigious buildings in very tight schedules. Our in-house team has earned a reputation for its meticulous attention to detail and firm grasp of project planning.
Almabani is credited with several prestigious and prominent commercial high-rise projects within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the region.
- The Adham Commercial Centre, a fourteen-storey building of fair-faced concrete, is a well-known landmark on Madinah Road, Jeddah.
- The new Western Region Headquarters of the Banque Saudi Fransi in Jeddah - designed by Zuhair Fayez Partnership, is yet another landmark project. A sophisticated and complex IO-storey building featuring several advanced technological features including a demountable partitioning system and a sophisticated under-the-floor trunking network, the building employs advanced chilled water "Thermal Energy Storage' (TES) technology in its air-conditioning system. Almabani's foray into hospital and care centre construction started way back in 1994 with the construction of a 300-room extension for the Sacre-Coeur Hospital in East Beirut.
- The AI-Hamra Guest Palace in Jeddah, which is largely used by visiting foreign dignitaries, is one such project handled by Almabani. In preparation for a royal state visit, and with only 4 months to go, this historical 18,000 square meter palace was totally refurbished inside-out. Almabani's Engineering Department, in conjunction with its London and Paris offices, handled the design, procurement of decorative materials and the selection of appropriate furniture for this challenging assignment. 60,000 square meters of garden were re-landscaped, the palace structure altered and upgraded, and the interior re-designed and decorated to the highest standards. This project is a distinguished example of the architecture and interior finishing that Almabani incorporates into its turnkey projects.
