Dubai is a vast city that is constantly growing. You can see it in the skies, the highways, and the neighbourhoods. But as we try to make things bigger and better, we occasionally disregard the essentials, like the water that flows out of our taps and the Earth under our feet. Heavy metals, including lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic, can […]
Just have faith in the things. That’s how they built all the magnificent buildings, bridges, and roads we see today. The quality of the pieces will decide if an endeavour will last for decades or have problems in the Future. Material testing facilities make everything of this possible behind the scenes. They make sure that steel, concrete, asphalt, and dirt […]
Every structure has a story, but doesn’t start with concrete or steel. It all starts with the dirt. Before the first base is poured, engineers and geologists are already working hard to answer the question, “Can this ground hold what we’re about to build?” That question is important in the UAE, where we are constructing higher, deeper, and quicker than […]
Look around you; aluminium is in every structure, in every vehicle, in every jet that carries us around the globe, and even in the tiniest of everyday devices. This material subtly keeps everything in place. But what most people don’t realize is that aluminium doesn’t get used just because it looks good or feels light. It’s used because it’s proven, […]
Dubai is a city that doesn’t do things halfway. From record-breaking towers to artificial islands, every project here pushes the limits of what’s possible. But behind the glamour and steel lies something less visible — yet absolutely vital — material testing. At Falcon Laboratory, this is what we live and breathe. Our job is simple to describe but powerful in […]
How rare is the experience of complete quiet? You may have had a night when the sound of construction outside kept you up or a weekend when the sound of traffic disrupted your tranquil morning coffee. It’s moments like these that remind us: noise isn’t just background — it changes how we live, work, and feel. Now imagine that same […]
The Everyday Thought We All Have Let’s be honest — we’ve all wondered at some point: “Can I actually drink the tap water in Dubai?” It’s a simple question, but it matters a lot. After all, water is part of our daily lives — from making morning coffee, to cooking dinner, to filling up a bottle before the gym. If […]
When you walk into a new building, its finish is the first thing that you notice. The walls are smooth, the colors are bright, and there may be a shiny shine that makes the place feel high-end. However, paint isn’t just about how it looks. A coat of paint is the shield that stands between your structure and the harsh […]
Why Safe Water Matters Water is something we use every single day — for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and even relaxing in a swimming pool. But here’s the thing: just because water looks clear doesn’t always mean it’s safe. In the UAE, most of our water comes from desalination plants or bottled water companies. It’s treated, yes — but once it […]
(The truth about indoor air quality—and what Falcon Laboratory can help you do about it) Take a deep breath. Feels good, right? Now here’s a question that most people never ask: What exactly did you breathe in? Don’t worry—this isn’t a scare tactic. But it is a wake-up call. Most of us assume that Air indoors—inside our homes, offices, kids’ […]
