en.Wedoany.com Reported - The UAE Metal Park has announced the launch of the second phase of its integrated industrial ecosystem, adding over 700,000 square feet of industrial units dedicated to metal processing and manufacturing. This project aims to help international metal companies establish and expand operations in the UAE without requiring upfront capital investment.

Following the successful delivery and utilization of the first phase, this expansion further strengthens the Metal Park's positioning as the world's first fully integrated plug-and-play metal industrial ecosystem. According to the statement, the second phase is built around a flexible operational model, combining plug-and-play infrastructure with pay-as-you-go flexibility, enabling companies to start operations immediately and scale up as needed.

This expansion directly aligns with the UAE's National Industrial Agenda and the "Make it in the Emirates" vision, shifting the focus from ownership-driven industrial development to operational readiness and utilization. Vahid Fouladkar, CEO of Metal Park, stated that industrialization is no longer about waiting for construction but about starting production; the second phase continues this transformation, allowing companies to enter the market faster, operate with greater flexibility, and scale confidently as demand grows.

As part of its ongoing expansion strategy, Metal Park has also strengthened its operations in Fujairah to complement its activities in the Khalifa Economic Zones (KEZAD), forming a resilient dual-hub logistics structure. This integrated model supports the uninterrupted flow of metals within the UAE and regional markets, covering import, export, inland distribution, warehousing, processing, and manufacturing through an interconnected ecosystem, aiming to streamline operations and capital flow.

The second phase will significantly expand the Metal Park's industrial and logistics capabilities by adding over 700,000 square feet of manufacturing and processing units and more than 130,000 tons of new storage capacity. According to the statement, this expansion will enhance the storage hub in the Khalifa Economic Zones, bringing the Metal Park's total storage capacity in Abu Dhabi and Fujairah to nearly 450,000 tons.
