IGM Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)

Nestled in a tranquil area of the Marina, Dubai, 82 exclusive and private residences offer the enchanting experience of Jumeirah Residences Marsa Al Arab as a lasting way of life, woven into the essence of time. Each residence features state-of-the-art amenities and expansive wraparound terraces, enveloped by verdant landscapes.The curved facade resembles the shape of a superyacht, joining wave-shaped Jumeirah Beach Hotel and iconic sail-shaped Burj Al Arab (which is also a Guardian Glass project). With this approach in mind, the alluring exterior color of Guardian SunGuard™ SN 40 T was the obvious choice, as it will work in harmony with the development’s color scheme and the natural sea surroundings.

International Green Mark (IGM®) Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are independently verified documents providing transparent information on the life-cycle environmental performance of Guardian Glass products. IGM EPDs provide consistent, environmental data that architects, consultants and specifiers can reference when evaluating materials used in building projects in Qatar and the wider region. They are established on the basis of comprehensive life cycle assessments and comply with recognized product category rules.
