The Kingdom of Bahrain, whose name means “two seas”, is a blend of rich culture and
modern thinking and offers a high-quality lifestyle that is cosmopolitan and relaxed.
A mix of many nationalities, Bahrain’s population is approaching 700,000, many

A cosmopolitan destination
Bahrain World Trade Center is located within the centre of the Kingdom’s Commercial
Business District (CBD), Manama, offering direct access to the King Faisal
Highway, one of Bahrain’s main arterial routes. The central location of this exciting
new destination is just a fifteen minute drive from the international airport connect-
ing Bahrain to the world, and it also places businesses and visitors within a short
drive of the majority of ministries and major companies on the island.
The King Fahad Causeway, which links Bahrain to Saudi Arabia, provides access
to the strategic markets of the surrounding Gulf States. A further causeway
currently proposed will connect Bahrain to Qatar, one of the GCC’s fastest growing
economies.

A towering vision
The two 50 storey towers of Bahrain World Trade Center are not only innovative in design,
but also provide the latest technology required to meet the many needs of today’s
demanding corporate organisations.
Businesses will benefit from the many supportive facilities the towers have to offer:
- Flexible Floorplates ranging from 120 sq.m – 820 sq.m
- Double height imposing entrance lobby
- State-of-the-art high speed passenger lifts
- High quality communal facilities on every level

The Bahrain World Trade Center is the Kingdom’s first truly intelligent building and
features an array of sophisticated SMART features:

wireless, unified messaging on a single, converged voice-data-video network.
- Advanced security systems with intelligent secured access, protection,
surveillance, warnings and responses.
- A district water cooling system provides a cost effective, environmentally
friendly alternative to traditional air conditioning systems.
- Exceptional management systems reduce costs, and deliver one bill to
occupants that include rent, energy and infocomm technology (ICT) services.
State-of-the-art business accommodation
The design inspiration behind the twin towers of the Bahrain World Trade Center makes
it the first building of its type in the world. A modern interpretation of traditional Arabian
wind towers, where the shape of the structure harnesses the onshore winds of the
Arabian Gulf, the towers’ architecture provides a source of energy for the building that
is renewable and cost effective.
- The shape of the towers channels the airflow through the turbines, improving
their function and energy generation output.
- The 3 turbines are each supported by an individual 30m bridge spanning
between the two towers.
- Connected to generators, the wind turbines will feed power to the building
grids, reducing the load on external power sources and providing a financial
benefit to the occupiers of the development.
