As concerns continue to grow about the effects of global warming on the environment, CMPi UAE, organizers of Gulf Landscaping scheduled to take place at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre from 17th to 18th November 2008 announced that water smart landscaping technology and methods of offsetting carbon footprint will make their Middle East debut at the two-day event.
“Commercial property owners in the region can feel secure about continuing to beautify their landscapes while protecting natural resources,” said Sam Patel, Sales Director CMPi UAE.
