Air-conditioned storage
How Does Dubai Heat Damage Business Equipment?
Summer heat in Dubai passes 40°C, and humid air near the coast causes condensation when temperatures change. Over a few months that leads to rust on metal tools, failing batteries, warped plastic housings and damaged circuit boards in electronics and AV gear. An air-conditioned unit keeps equipment cool and dry, so it works when you take it out again.
Who it's for
Who Uses Equipment Storage in Dubai?

Moving it to a storage unit frees that space for work, stock or customers, for a monthly cost that starts from AED 225 at DIP 1, excluding 5% VAT.
