United Arab Emirates based environmental and waste management company, Bee'ah, is increasing its sustainable waste management initiatives across Sharjah's residential areas and city streets.
The company's distinctive new blue and green-branded bins and road sweeping vehicles, part of its latest AED100 million ($27.2 million) investment programme, were unveiled for the first time at the inaugural Green Middle East exhibition and conference.
According to Bee'ah, the r investment will see existing streetside containers replaced with smell-proof, scavenger-resistant bins in early 2012, as part of its commitment to making Sharjah a cleaner and greener city.
In addition the company is also showcasing its reverse vending machine for plastic bottles and cans to visitors, as well as a new container washing truck that can clean bins on location.
The vending machines will shortly be launched in key strategic locations across the emirate, and according to the company presents a great opportunity for co-branding by like-minded organisations looking to promote their own green credential.
"Our green and blue-branded recycling bins and road sweeping vehicles will become a familiar sight on the emirate's major roads and in residential communities. We are going all out to engage the local community as well as showcase our initiatives to the industry at Green Middle East," comments Khaled Al Huraimel, CEO, Bee'ah.
