SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - Aug 30, 2017) - SportsArt, today announces its first installation in the United Arab Emirates as the exclusive provider of eco-friendly gym equipment for The Sustainable City. In a modern application of social, economic and environmental sustainability in the built environment, SportsArt's contribution of cardio and strength equipment will further showcase The Sustainable City as a model for sustainable living, work, education and recreation.
As part of The Sustainable City's endeavour to create a net-zero environment, SportsArt was chosen to provide its award-winning ECO-POWR cardio series, which is the latest line of environmentally responsible cycles and ellipticals, and the first of its kind to harness the power of human energy and redistribute it back into the gym. SportsArt's equipment will be located in The Sustainable City's fitness center, where residents will benefit from the free gym as well as incentives based on their watts production.
"We are honored to be part of The Sustainable City's vision to become an international showcase for eco-friendly living," said Ivo Grossi, Vice President of SportsArt. "Our plan is to continue fostering the net-zero landscape by supplying our ECO-POWR line to power other buildings such as the Hotel Indigo and Green Diamond Centre in the future."
"We have selected SportsArt to provide its ECO-POWR line for our city because of the company's commitment to fostering a culture of conservation, which falls in line with our mission to maintain net-zero energy through social, economic and environmental sustainability," said Mr. Michael Solvsten, The Sustainable City Operations Director. "As pioneers in sustainability, our decision to choose SportsArt as the equipment provider for The Sustainable Gym came naturally."
