Case Studies: Jebel Ali Port, UAE

Jebel Ali Port, operated by DP World company, is the largest seaport in the Middle East.

Jebel Ali is the main seaport of DP World company – one of the largest port operators in the world based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. DP World operations are equal to 10% of the global container traffic.

Jebel Ali Port has been voted as “Best Seaport – Middle East” for 24 consecutive years, which is a record achievement in the history of AFLAS Awards.

In order to ensure security and organize employees/visitors control to the territory of the port PERCo RTD-15 full-height turnstiles were chosen.

RTD-15 series turnstiles are designed to cover the full passage zone and are suitable for outdoor application. Corrosive resistance and increased rigidity of the welded structure guarantee long life cycle even in harsh environments.

First 50 turnstiles were installed in Jebel Ali Port as far back as 2009. During 9 years of operation turnstiles have shown not only reliability but also high durability. Turnstiles exterior remained the same despite harsh weather conditions of UAE: heat, salt, humidity or sandstorms. Thus, when deciding upon the equipment for a new terminal, RTD-15 turnstiles were chosen again. 23 RTD-15 full height turnstiles were installed there in 2018.
