With the opening of the first sustainable sea-based fire station in history, Dubai Civil Defence has made a substantial advancement in safety infrastructure and innovation. The project is a reflection of Dubai's ongoing efforts to improve environmental sustainability and its fire and rescue capabilities.
The new mobile floating fire station, which is designed to offer improved coverage, faster reaction times, and great efficiency in protecting marine operations, is expected to revolutionise Dubai's maritime emergency response systems.
The floating construction is 70% more affordable than conventional maritime fire stations and is the first of its type in the world to be sustainable and ecologically benign.
The station, which was built with sustainability as its primary design principle, represents Dubai's dedication to environmental preservation while upholding the best levels of efficiency and safety. Standing out for its environmentally friendly design, the structure can house up to sixteen people. By functioning as a movable marine station, the floating structure saves money and makes a substantial contribution to the preservation of green places and a reduction in carbon footprint by doing away with the need for a designated land area. The floating skyscraper also demonstrates movement, reaching a noteworthy 11 miles per hour.
Dubai Civil Defence continues to offer top-notch fire and rescue services by utilising cutting-edge technology and creative solutions, supporting Dubai's goal of being a global leader in safety and security.
