Default building supply store in Dubai?

Hi all Dubai folks,

Do you know of any building supply stores in DBX that may stock foam insulation sheets?

I've already tried ACE on SZR, but they are useless.

Regards.

You could try Ace at Festival City as that one is quite a bit bigger. Can't think of anywhere else. You wouldn't think it would be that hard given the amount of building going on. Don't think I'd take Blue Cat's advice though

DH suggests driving round the builders yards in Al Quoz. He's on Play Station .. that's about all I can get out of him!

You could try these people to see if they sell it

Bubble wrap??? That might explain why the buildings fall apart so easily
