MASAR, a pioneering development project of Umm Alqura for Development and Construction, is built on a vision to develop Makkah as a modern international tourist destination. With the slogan ‘Dedicated to Makkah’ MASAR establishes an integrated development infrastructure that adopts the concept of comprehensive mobility to serve Makkah residents, visitors, and pilgrims.

MASAR is in the western part of Makkah to Jabal Omar on the outskirts of the Haram Al Sharif. The new KAAR (MASAR) development is a signature urban development project providing connectivity to the Al Haram along Grand Pedestrian Boulevard, flanked by hotels, commercial and retail facilities, residential buildings, car parking, public spaces, and public amenities to support religious, social and commercial activities to Hajj and Umrah pilgrims and other visitors and residents. It is 3,650 meters long and 320 meters wide links the first, second, and third ring roads to Abdullah Arif and Mansour roads. With such a massive project in Makkah built on a curved location, the weather is scorching during summer, and rainy in winter. ARKAZ took precautions by ensuring we are using suitable materials and had all the necessary tools to ensure any safety hazards won't happen when the project was done.

ARKAZ range of waterproofing is a pure High-Density Poly Ethelyn HDPE membrane system to protect against water ingress and lateral water migration, which inhibits the damaging effects of rain and moisture by forming a physical barrier, as well as blocking any further entry from deep underground. This is achieved through a unique blend of a completely tailored technical solution system that integrates to form an engineered piece of art, helping you conserve valuable energy by keeping the building dry. Products by GCP, “Grace Construction Products,” are available exclusively through our network of waterproofing specialists throughout the Kingdom by ARKAZ.

Through the provision of high-performing construction chemical solutions and building products that strengthen structures and protect assets, effectively enhancing a project’s value, safety, and sustainability, we strive to enrich the lives of this generation and the next.” Said Dr. Frank Noemer, Managing Director, Arkaz.
