The Olaya Towers, completed in 2013, are two imposing skyscrapers of 36 storeys each, built in Olaya, the financial and commercial heart of the city of Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.

The main aim was to make the Olaya Towers an architectural element that enhances the city's night scenery by creating an artificial light that can enrich the complex through time-varying light scenes, expressing elegance, sobriety and dynamism, just when daylight can no longer bring out the building's harmonious proportions.
The two towers are connected on the ground floor by a large foyer that serves as the entrance to the building.
The two-tower complex, designed by the architectural firm BDPL Gulf, constitutes the third major building on King Fahd Road, after the Kingdom Tower and the Faisaliah Tower.
Idral places technology at the service of hygiene with its electronic taps.
Thanks to a photocell mounted inside all products, water is dispensed without touching any part of the product. The infrared beams of the photocell detect the presence of the user at a distance self-regulated at the time of installation. The photocell, as soon as it is sensitised, activates a solenoid valve which, in turn, determines the water supply.
This can be, depending on the model chosen, cold or hot, mixed or pre-mixed at the desired temperature. The water continues to be dispensed as long as the user is within the 'reading' range of the photocell. As soon as he moves away, the solenoid valve ends the operation, preventing waste.
The following product has been installed inside the structure:
