Questions/Answers
Question 1
Veuillez décrire l’objectif de l’initiative. (200 mots maximum)
Dubai Central laboratory department of Dubai Municipality decided to find solution over paint defects during climate changes by avoiding more polluted paints and at the same time the paints shall be weather, dirt proof also safe to public and environment. Dubai climate most of the year sunny causing severe UV radiation on buildings increasing heat island effect and sometime sand storm spreading dust to the walls. The residential buildings coated with paints during climate changes facing many problems like dirt Pickup, Poor Color Retention, Wrinkling, fungal and mould attack. The application of nanotechnology applied to the model house built and the paint properties analyzed by technical team in order to protect the walls of building and office due to drastic climate change of Dubai city and save routine maintenance cost of public about 22% , historical assets lifespan, reducing 10% carbon emission by using biomass ensured binder and recyclable packaging materials instead of fossil fuels and sustainable to environment. Cool pigments technology present in the nano paints protect total solar energy attack on walls by reflecting solar energy and reduce temperature inside of buildings and make comfort living conditions to public.

2.Materials procurement
3.Skilled Labour
4.Transport
5.Testing
6.Technical experts
The initiative started with design and plan model houses simlar like public living condition.The materials purchased form different locations of Dubai and thetechnical experts discussed and constructed with in DCL premise.The model houses contain garden and parking area with surrounding setup similar in Dubai city communites type.
b. Veuillez décrire si l’initiative est durable et comment (par rapport aux aspects sociaux, économiques et environnementaux). (200 mots maximum)
Using nano paints no adverse effect on environment due to free of heavy metals and formaldehyde content.Good dirt pickup resistance of Nano Paints reduce recoat intervals and saves maintenance cost about 22% average expense for 3 years or less.Cool pigments technology present in the nano paints protect total solar energy attack on walls by reflecting solar energy and reduce temperature inside of buildings and make comfort living conditions to public. At the same time average expense of energy consumption cost will be reduced by 5%.Use of sustainable biomass ensured binder and recyclable packaging materials instead of fossil fuels in nano paints reduces carbon emission about 10% and safe to environment.All the above saidadvantages shows this intitiative is sustainable.
Question 8
a. L’initiative a-t-elle fait l’objet d’une évaluation formelle (interne ou externe) ? Si oui, veuillez décrire comment l’initiative a été évaluée. (100 mots maximum)
Oui
The initiative evaluated by Dubai municiplaity Excellence Program Section delgates.The delegates visited Dubai Central Laboratory of Dubai Municpality and seen the model house site and audited about initiaive plan and test results.Each and every plan of the intiative explained by technical team and audit observed and evaluated.
