Project Director (Al Futtaim Carillion)
It was important for us to appoint a formwork supplier who had a successful track record in executing complex fairfaced concrete projects. Based on their past experiences in that area, we chose PERI to be our formwork solution provider. The effective collaboration between PERI and Al Futtaim Carillion’s site team played an important role for the success of the project.
