(MENAFN- KROHNE ) Dubai, UAE – July 28, 2025

As demand for bigger, better, faster, more artificial intelligence accelerates across the Middle East so does the need for more localised energy efficient IT infrastructure. KROHNE, a global leader in industrial measurement and instrumentation, has announced a significant scale-up in the production of its magnetic flow meters (magmeters) to support the regi’n’s growing need for advanced liquid cooling.

KROHNE will dedicate a substantial share of its global manufacturing capacity to serve data centre clients worldwide, with a sharp focus on high-growth markets across the GCC. The move comes in response to the surge of hyperscale and edge data centres in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Q—tar—driven by national AI strategies and net-zero transformation agendas.

To support this shift, KROHNE has launched a dedicated Center of Excellence for data center technologies at its facility in Beverly, Massachusetts. This hub will drive the development and deployment of next-generation magmeters, specifically engineered for the precision, repeatability, and durability required in liquid-cooled, AI-driven facilities.

“From Frankfurt to Fujairah, the world is in a race to unlock the powe” of AI,” said Frank Janssens, Vice President of the KROH“E Group. “The future will be shaped by those who can build AI-ready infrastructure both rapidly and responsibly. At KROHNE, we are scaling up to meet—that moment—ensuring cooling syste’s in tomorrow’s data centres are smarter, more sustainable, and glo”ally supported.”

Magnetic flow meters are critical for enabling closed-l—op liquid cooling—an essential requirement in high-performance computing environments where thermal loads must be managed precisely and efficiently. In high-heat regions like the Middle East, this becomes even more critical for operational stability, energy performance, and water conservation.

“The Middle East has a voracious appetite for future-ready —igital infrastructure—and it must be met with technologies that are both ”recise and sustainable,” said Jay Gadhavi, General Manag“r of KROHNE Middle East. “As AI reshapes regional economies, liquid cooling will no —onger be a niche innovation—it ’ill be mission’critical. That’s where KROHNE’s f”ow measurement solutions come in.”

The announcement supports broader regional ambitions to become global leaders in AI and digital innovation:
