20 Years of Building It Right: The KEZA Story

Since 2006, KEZA A/C Industry Co has built climate and steel solutions for some of the region's most demanding projects. Here is how we got here, and where we are going next. In 2006, Humayun Sumar started KEZA in Umm Al Quwain with a simple idea. In his words:

Twenty years later, that idea still guides everything we do. This is our first blog post, and it felt right to start at the beginning.

From one workshop to a full manufacturing operation

KEZA began as a small team with a focus on quality. Over two decades, we have grown into a manufacturer with around 50 professionals. Our team includes engineers, fabricators, welders, and project managers. We grew by saying yes to hard jobs, then delivering them on time. Each project taught us something

new, and each one added to what we can build today.

Pioneering district cooling in the UAE

In 2008, KEZA became one of the pioneers of district cooling in the UAE. At the time, it was a new approach to cooling large developments efficiently in extreme heat.

That early work shaped who we are. It pushed us to master HVAC engineering for Gulf conditions, where equipment must perform through high heat, humidity, and dust.

Why we build everything in-house

Most of what we deliver is designed and made in our own facility in Umm Al Quwain. That includes:

• HVAC and district cooling systems, including explosion-proof air handling units for oil, gas, and offshore sites

• Electrical enclosures, such as LV panels, switchgear enclosures, control cabinets, and cable trays

• Steel fabrication and metal work, including laser cutting, press-brake forming, welding, and machining

• Furniture and food and beverage equipment, from metal racking to stainless-steel kitchen lines
  

Keeping production in-house means we control quality at every step. It also means we can move fast when a client's deadline is tight. We do not wait on outside suppliers to fix a problem; we fix it ourselves.

Our proudest work: projects for the Two Holy Mosques

Some deadlines cannot move. Projects for the Haram in Mecca and Madinah, which serve millions of pilgrims every year, are among them.

• For the Mecca Haram project in 2020, KEZA carried out the sheet metal fabrication for 5,000 packaged units. Producing that volume to one consistent standard was possible because we control every step in our own factory.
  

• For the Madinah Haram project in 2010, we fabricated gold-plated umbrella tips. This was precision work, where finish and detail mattered as much as strength.
  

These two projects remain among the ones we are proudest of. Together they show what in-house manufacturing and a committed team can deliver, both at scale and in fine detail. Since then, we have delivered for hospitals, malls, offshore platforms, food facilities, and defense clients. Each one comes with its own standards, and we meet them.

What's next for KEZA

As we mark 20 years, we are still growing. We keep investing in our team, our factory, and new products built for the Gulf climate. In the coming months, we will share more about our projects, our products, and life inside our factory here on the blog.

Let's build something together

For 20 years, our reputation has been built one project at a time. If you have a project in HVAC, electrical enclosures, or steel fabrication, we would like to hear about it.
