The Newtownabbey company completed its largest ever contract worth £600,000 at the new Dubai Arena. This involved supplying over 700 products to the project including bollards, benches, tree grates and litter bins.
Speaking after completion of the project, ESF Managing Director Alan Lowry said: "We supplied a number of products, most of which were manufactured in Northern Ireland, including security bollards to go around the perimeter to ensure its protection as well as benches, litter bins and tree grates.

"A greater focus is being placed on perimeter security across the globe due to the increase of attacks, especially where large crowds gather, so it's important to ensure each product installed at the Dubai Arena is fit for purpose. All ESF's security bollards are PAS 68 tested and certified and due to our recent acquisition of Sentry Posts, we have the technical ability to design and deliver a global project of this scale."
ESF has delivered a number of projects across the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in recent years with its street, themed and solar powered products, including IMG Worlds of Adventure, Warner Brothers Park and Global Village.
Support from both the Department for International Trade (DIT) and Invest Northern Ireland allowed ESF to quote for this prestigious project.
Dubai Arena, officially named the Coca-Cola Arena following a ten-year deal with Coca Cola, is due to open in June 2019 and will span half-a-million square feet.
