Rooted overseas, setting new quality standards! Recently, Zhejiang Marriott Group won the bid for Uganda’s Mandela National Stadium’s PTFE membrane/curtain wall project with advanced technology, rich overseas experience and strong capabilities. It's another major overseas achievement after Mali’s Bamako National Stadium project. Using Chinese membrane technology, Marriott Group turns African sports landmarks into modern marvels! 

Mandela National Stadium is in Uganda's capital, Kampala. It's Uganda's largest and most advanced national sports venue symbolizing Sino - Ugandan friendship. The upgrade includes a new PTFE membrane roof, a key renovation part. This roof overcomes open - air venue viewing challenges and meets international standards for top - tier events. Now, it will be the home ground for Uganda's national team and a venue for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

The roof design focuses on “lightness and integration with nature.” Given Uganda's tropical savanna climate of heavy rainfall and strong sunlight, it uses a classic combination of large cantilevered steel trusses and PTFE membranes for structural safety and an aesthetic - functional result. The durable PTFE membrane is suitable for Uganda's hot and ultraviolet - rich environment. Inspired by an eagle spreading its wings, the roof has circular and graceful membrane surfaces, reflecting modern stadium aesthetics and African culture. Once completed, it will be an iconic part of Kampala's skyline.

Winning the bid is just the start; fulfilling commitments shows real strength. Zhejiang Marriott Group will adhere to high - standard, strict - requirement, quality - assurance, and timely - completion guidelines. We'll steadily advance the project and ensure its successful completion by the 2027 Africa Cup. The venue will be in top condition to welcome the event, providing Uganda with a safe and functional sports facility. Moreover, it will showcase China's advanced membrane structure technology in Africa.

Using advanced technology, high - quality products and efficient services, it aims to create more exemplary projects for global infrastructure's sustainable development.
