Due to the persistent efforts of GMES (Gulf Mechanical Engineers & Suppliers), a branch of the Al Hathboor Group and our partner SKF, we bagged the first crucial order from Dubai EYE! It is our great pleasure to be a part of the prestigious and landmark project. The focus and efforts paid off as we secured the SEALS order for the World’s largest Ferris wheel.
ABOUT DUBAI EYE
Bluewaters Island will feature the AED 1 billion ($270m) Dubai Eye, a 210-metre (689 ft) tall giant Ferris wheel. If completed, it will be taller than the current world’s tallest Ferris wheel, the 167.6 m (550 ft) High Roller, which opened in Las Vegas in March 2014 and 19.5 m (64 ft) taller than the 190.5 m (625 ft) New York wheel planned for Staten Island which is scheduled to open in 2017. The wheel will provide views of Dubai Marina and landmarks such as Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah and Burj Khalifa. Its base will serve as an entertainment zone. A large LED screen will be mounted on the wheel creating an electronic platform for broadcasting, advertisements, and other information.
