MAT Filtration Technologies, a manufacturer of high-efficiency water filtration equipment and provider of engineering services, has reflected on the success of its collaboration with SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, which has now been open for over 18 months.
SeaWorld Abu Dhabi and the Yas SeaWorld Research & Rescue Center contribute to the UAE’s status as a global destination for innovative attractions. Miral’s cutting-edge facilities combine world-class engineering, innovative technology, and a commitment to marine conservation.
With its expertise in life support systems, MAT Filtration has served as a key contributor to both projects.

Engineering success
SeaWorld Abu Dhabi is a unique location created to fully immerse guests in the wonders of the ocean. With its vast array of interactive experiences and exhibitions, this facility pushes the limits of marine attractions.
In addition to providing visitors with entertainment, the venue also teaches the value of protecting our oceans and their ecosystems. The Yas SeaWorld Research & Rescue Center, a first-of-its-kind establishment in the area devoted to marine research, education, and rescue operations, supports this effort. Collectively, these organisations embody Miral’s mission to produce experiences that are meaningful, sustainable, and transformative.
MAT Filtration’s expertise plays a crucial role in the engineering success of the projects. The company manufactured and supplied all Aquarium Life Support Systems (ALSS) for both venues, according to Satchel Engineering’s facility design. This ensured the aquatic environments met safety, sustainability, and functionality standards.
A spokesperson from MAT Filtration says: “The advanced filtration technologies developed by MAT ensure optimal water quality for the diverse range of marine life housed at SeaWorld Abu Dhabi. These systems replicate natural aquatic habitats, supporting the health and well-being of species while providing visitors with an authentic experience.”
MAT Filtration’s standing as a world leader in life support systems for large aquariums has been solidified by its dedication to quality and innovation. The company’s extensive contribution to SeaWorld Abu Dhabi is illustrated by the more than 330 containers of equipment delivered to the site, highlighting the intricacy and precision of the project.
“SeaWorld Abu Dhabi’s success is a testament to cutting-edge engineering and collaboration. The marine exhibits, supported by MAT’s life support systems, provide a sustainable and immersive environment for visitors while prioritizing the health of marine life,” says the company.
“MAT’s systems ensure the aquarium operates efficiently, maintaining the delicate balance required to support a diverse array of aquatic species. This achievement highlights the synergy between innovation and environmental stewardship, key principles driving the project.”
Visionary approach
The Yas SeaWorld Research & Rescue Center serves as a focus for marine research, teaching, and conservation. The Center uses cutting-edge systems from MAT Filtration to create controlled settings for rescuing, rehabilitating, and researching fragile aquatic species.
These technologies play a vital role in ensuring optimal conditions for marine research and rescue operations, enabling the Centre to contribute to global marine conservation initiatives and facilitate collaboration with scientists and researchers worldwide.
With these projects, Miral and MAT Filtration exemplify how collaboration can advance the sector. In addition to complementary approaches, the organisations share a dedication to sustainability. This can be seen in the design and operation of these facilities, ranging from energy-efficient systems to water recycling processes, which reduce environmental impact while enhancing educational and recreational value.
“The pivotal contributions of MAT Filtration Technologies in creating advanced life support systems have been instrumental in bringing these visionary projects to life,” says the company. “These facilities not only enhance Abu Dhabi’s status as a global destination but also serve as a beacon for marine conservation and education.”
Earlier this year, MAT Filtration announced a partnership with Bureau Veritas, a leading testing, inspection and certification services provider for a range of markets and sectors.
