Dubai based cable seal provider Roxtec Middle East FZE is celebrating the 25th anniversary of founding in the UAE with its best ever year of trading.

Jebel Ali Freezone headquartered Roxtec Middle East FZE covers the MENA region and started with just two staff members in 2000. Today the Swedish owned company has a team of 35 and posted sales of $15million in the last 12 months – doubling turnover since 2022.

Roxtec Middle East FZE managing director Firas Kafafi said the company is seeing sales spike in line with the MENA region’s expansion in new markets like clean energy and data centres. He said the turbo charged growth in AI and cloud computing has driven the company’s sales in data centres alone by 300 per cent since 2022. More growth is set to come as Roxtec is being specified on the next generation of High-Performance Computing data centres, being built in the UAE to handle intensive AI and Big Data workloads. In addition, clean energy sales have grown by 20 per cent in the last year as Roxtec supplies projects ranging from green hydrogen, carbon capture, battery storage and offshore wind.
