Spacemaker (UAE) Marks 2 Million Man-Hours Without Injury at EXPO 2020

Spacemaker (UAE) has achieved a significant safety milestone in the construction of modular buildings for EXPO 2020, completing 2 million man-hours without a single injury. This accomplishment highlights the company’s commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety while navigating the complexities of delivering key infrastructure for one of the world’s largest international events.

The modular buildings, which form an essential part of the EXPO 2020 pavilions, were constructed using advanced modular techniques designed to increase efficiency and sustainability. Spacemaker (UAE) was tasked with the construction of several pavilions and supporting structures, which required careful planning and coordination to meet the tight timelines and complex requirements of the event.

Despite the challenges posed by the global COVID-19 pandemic and the logistical hurdles of working in a high-pressure, large-scale construction environment, Spacemaker (UAE) ensured that all safety protocols were adhered to throughout the project. The company’s rigorous safety management system, which includes daily risk assessments and continuous monitoring, played a crucial role in avoiding injuries.

The modular construction process, which involves the off-site fabrication of building components that are then assembled on-site, helped streamline the construction timeline while minimizing disruption at the EXPO site. This method also contributed to reducing waste and environmental impact, aligning with the sustainability goals of EXPO 2020.

To ensure a safe working environment, Spacemaker (UAE) implemented strict health measures during the pandemic, including regular health screenings, social distancing, and sanitation protocols. These measures were key to maintaining worker safety and keeping the project on track.

In addition to safety, the modular buildings were designed with sustainability in mind, incorporating energy-efficient technologies and eco-friendly materials. The adaptability of modular construction allowed for quick assembly and disassembly, meeting both the needs of the event and the long-term goals of reusability and future flexibility.

The company’s achievement of 2 million man-hours without an injury reflects its focus on both operational efficiency and the well-being of its workforce. As EXPO 2020 concludes, the contributions made by Spacemaker (UAE) to the project stand as a notable example of how modular construction and stringent safety protocols can coexist to deliver complex projects on time and without incident.

Looking forward, Spacemaker (UAE) intends to build on its success in modular construction, continuing to prioritize safety and innovation in future projects. The company’s achievement serves as an industry benchmark for safety and project execution within the UAE’s construction sector.
