SUPPLIED

A petrol station shaped like a Ghaf tree is to be set up by the Expo 2020 Dubai site.

The ENOC Group has unveiled the new service station concept that was inspired by the UAE's national tree.

The Ghaf tree is known for its high sustainability and deep roots that make it resilient even in harsh weather conditions.

The station's exoskeleton is built with carbon fibre that is a first for the construction of an entire service station canopy.
