CIMC Modular Building Systems Ships First Modular Hotel Project to Saudi Arabia

Published

on

JIANGMEN, China, Aug. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CIMC Modular Building Systems, the modular construction business of CIMC Group, has officially shipped the modular units for Earth Hotels Riyadh, marking its first hospitality project in the Middle East.

Manufactured at the company’s production facility in Jiangmen, China, the project comprises 104 fully finished volumetric modules, which will be transported to Riyadh and assembled on site into a permanent boutique lifestyle hotel.

Scheduled to open in early 2027, Earth Hotels Riyadh demonstrates how industrialized construction can help hospitality developers achieve greater delivery certainty, consistent quality and lower environmental impact.

Compared with conventional construction methods, the project is expected to reduce the overall construction schedule by more than 40%, cut on-site construction waste by 70% and lower lifecycle carbon emissions by 30%.

Delivering a Hotel Built in a Factory

Located in Riyadh’s Maathar District, Earth Hotels Riyadh will offer 96 guestrooms across three floors, with a gross floor area of approximately 11,000 square metres. More than 75% of the guestrooms will be delivered using modular construction.

Designed as a boutique lifestyle destination, the hotel will combine guestrooms and loft suites with vibrant food and beverage concepts, co-working areas, wellness amenities and a rooftop social terrace.

Much of the building is completed off-site in a controlled factory environment. Structural systems, MEP services, interior finishes, furniture and smart hotel technologies are integrated before shipment, significantly reducing the amount of work required on site.

The project has been designed and constructed in accordance with the Saudi Building Code, while benchmarking key performance criteria against U.S. standards, and meets Saudi requirements for permanent buildings.

To address Riyadh’s demanding climate, the hotel incorporates high-performance thermal insulation, sustainable building materials and intelligent room management systems designed to reduce cooling demand and improve operational energy efficiency.

CIMC Modular Building Systems has also implemented a digital quality management system covering design, manufacturing, logistics and on-site installation, enabling end-to-end quality traceability throughout the project lifecycle.

Paul Farrelly, Assistant General Manager of CIMC Modular Building Systems, said:

“Modular construction is not simply about building faster. It is about providing developers with greater certainty, consistent quality and more sustainable outcomes. Factory-controlled manufacturing allows us to combine design flexibility with scalable delivery for international hospitality projects.”

Rami Moukarzel, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Earth Hotels, said:

“At Earth Hotels, sustainability is a design principle that shapes how we build and the experiences we create. Our partnership with CIMC Modular Building Systems allows us to bring that vision to life through an innovative construction approach that reduces waste, accelerates delivery and supports our commitment to responsible growth across the Middle East.”

Expanding Modular Construction in the Middle East

As investment in tourism, hospitality and urban development continues across Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East, demand is growing for construction solutions that can provide both quality and greater programme certainty.

Building on CIMC Group’s established regional presence and global supply-chain capabilities, CIMC Modular Building Systems plans to further expand its modular solutions across hospitality, residential, healthcare, education and other sectors.

Victor Zhu, Managing Director of CIMC Modular Building Systems, said:

“Earth Hotels Riyadh is an important milestone for our business in the Middle East. It demonstrates how modular construction can support high-quality hospitality development while giving developers greater confidence in programme, quality and sustainability. We look forward to working with more partners across the region as demand for industrialized construction continues to grow.”

The project represents a new application of advanced manufacturing in Saudi Arabia’s hospitality sector, showing how modular construction can combine speed, quality, sustainability and design without compromising the guest experience.

KuCoin Achieves ISO/IEC 42001 Certification, Strengthening Trusted AI Across Its Global Digital Asset Platform

Published

on

By

PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands, Aug. 20, 2026 /CNW/ — KuCoin, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange built on trust, today announced that it has achieved ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification for its Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS). As the world’s first certifiable international standard for AI management systems, ISO/IEC 42001 marks an important milestone in KuCoin’s commitment to building Trusted AI through responsible governance, further strengthening the company’s Trust Framework and reinforcing its long-term vision of delivering secure, transparent and trusted digital asset infrastructure.

As AI becomes increasingly embedded in digital financial infrastructure, its role extends far beyond improving operational efficiency. Today, AI supports a growing range of critical platform functions, from risk management, anti-money laundering (AML) and fraud detection to market surveillance, customer service, product intelligence and operational automation. As AI capabilities continue to evolve, so do expectations for how these systems are governed. Trusted AI is no longer defined solely by technological capability–it requires clear accountability, transparency, continuous oversight and responsible governance throughout the entire AI lifecycle. This is precisely the foundation established by ISO/IEC 42001 and an increasingly important requirement for the future of the digital asset industry.

KuCoin’s certified Artificial Intelligence Management System supports its global digital asset exchange and financial services platform reinforcing the responsible deployment, governance and continuous improvement of AI across its operations. The certification covers the AI management system and the organizational functions that support it, ensuring AI is governed under a structured and internationally recognized management framework.

“AI is becoming a foundational capability of digital financial infrastructure, but greater capability must be matched by greater responsibility,” said BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin. “We believe the future of the industry will not be defined simply by more advanced AI, but by more trusted AI. Achieving ISO/IEC 42001 demonstrates our commitment to embedding responsible AI governance into the way we build, deploy and operate AI across our platform. As we continue to innovate, we remain equally committed to ensuring that every AI capability is transparent, accountable and designed to strengthen user trust.”

ISO/IEC 42001 represents the latest addition to KuCoin’s comprehensive Trust Framework. Building upon its existing ISO/IEC 27001 certification for information security, SOC 2 Type II attestation for operational reliability, and ISO 22301 certification for business continuity and operational resilience, ISO/IEC 42001 establishes a dedicated governance framework for artificial intelligence. Together, these internationally recognized standards create a multi-layered foundation that strengthens security, resilience, transparency and responsible innovation across the platform. As AI continues to reshape the digital asset industry, KuCoin will continue advancing Trusted AI through globally recognized governance standards, ensuring that artificial intelligence not only becomes more capable, but also more trustworthy.

About KuCoin

Founded in 2017, KuCoin is a leading global crypto platform built on trust and security, serving over 45 million users across 200+ countries and regions. Known for its reliability and user-first approach, the platform combines advanced technology, deep liquidity, and strong security safeguards to deliver a seamless trading experience. KuCoin provides access to 1,500+ digital assets through a broad product suite and remains committed to building transparent, compliant, and user-centric digital asset infrastructure for the future of finance, backed by SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 27701:2019, ISO 22301:2019 and ISO/IEC 42001:2023 Certifications.
