Western Bainoona Group (WBG) has integrated plans, processes, people, equipment and world-class capabilities to reliably deliver projects from concept to handover, with its reputation for quality workmanship and customer satisfaction deriving from a management style designed for on-schedule, on-budget project completion.
First opening its doors for business in 1990, WBG began with just two trailers and has evolved into a company with 300 trailers that is today recognised as a leading contractor for roads and infrastructure works, plus the production, supply and delivery of all types of rocks, aggregates and sand.
Employing approximately 4,500 personnel, WBG realises that there are multiple approaches to the development, design and construction of any one particular project, with each presenting a unique set of challenges that need to be analysed and balanced together with the owner’s objectives to reach the very best solution.
This forward-looking way of thinking has permitted WBG to work on some of the GCC’s most important and prestigious projects, including UAE Road Connection (Road Works and Infrastructure – Main Contractor); Etihad Rail (Earthworks – Sub-Contractor); Abu Dhabi International Airport (Road Works – Sub-Contractor); Barakah Nuclear Power Plant (Earthworks and Road Works – Sub-Contractor); 902 Villas Akoya Oxygen, Phase 1 (RoadWorks and Infrastructure – Sub-Contractor) and Oil and Gas Projects (Roads, Asphalt, Infrastructure, projects’ Main and Sub-Contractor).
