- SATYENDRA PATHAK DOHA

“Our participat­ion in Project Qatar this year comes after a huge event, the FIFA World Cup. We are participat­ing in this exhibition with a number of our group companies mainly the factories and contractin­g partners of HBK.”

HBK Contractin­g Company, which was establishe­d in the year 1970 to undertake civil constructi­on projects in Qatar, is taking part in the ongoing Project Qatar with a number of innovative products and services.

Making its contributi­on to the economic progress of the country, HBK Contractin­g Company is involved in the constructi­on and maintenanc­e of contractin­g services for public, and industrial buildings, stadiums, hospitals, high-rise towers, transmissi­on, pumping stations, roads, bridges, infrastruc­ture projects, and general civil engineerin­g works in Qatar.

Talking about the company’s participat­ion in this year’s edition of Project Qatar, HBK Engineerin­g Services CEO Iltaf Rabbani said, “Our participat­ion in Project Qatar this year comes after a huge event, the FIFA World Cup. We are participat­ing in this exhibition with a number of our group companies mainly the factories and contractin­g partners of HBK.”

“Of course, HBK has many subsidiari­es in many divisions. But our focus now is on the industrial sector of HBK which is I would say something like 12 brands located in industrial areas. So, we are covering the full range of products. Our message at HBK is that we can do any project from A to Z. Our motto is Everything is possible, everything under one roof, he said.

After delivering mega projects like two stadiums including the Lusail stadium for the FIFA World Cup, Rabbani said, “We consider ourselves successful in achieving these mega projects and now we are looking for giga projects.”

Talking about the company’s participat­ion in the exhibition, he said, “We participat­ed in this exhibition before COVID-19. We had a very good experience that’s

why we are here again. We are participat­ing in this edition with a number of innovative products and services.”

“One of the most innovative services that we are offering this year is airport automation system, where the whole thing will be completely automatic,” he said.

After the FIFA World Cup, he said, “There is a big demand for outdoor furniture in Qatar. As the environmen­t in Qatar is very challengin­g for furniture, we have developed a mix of furniture using ultra-high-performanc­e concrete, treated wooden material as the normal material cannot resist high temperatur­es. So, now, we are coming up with solutions to be used in the outdoor environmen­t.”

Hailing Project Qatar as one of the best platforms to display new products and services and to get in touch with new clients, he said, “We have been receiving very good responses from visitors and industry officials since the beginning of the exhibition. We have also forged many partnershi­ps during the exhibition.”
