UAE home-grown company Dulsco is celebrating wins in three categories at the Middle East Waste & Recycling Awards. 
 
The company, which has been operating in the UAE for over 80 years and currently handles over one third of the waste generated in Dubai each day, was announced runner up in both ‘Waste Management Company of the Year’ and ‘Best Public Awareness Campaign’ categories, as well as the prestigious ‘Personality of the Year – Waste Management’ Award for its chief innovation officer Madhumohan Sreeram.
 
“We are delighted and honoured to be recognised at the inaugural Middle East Waste & Recycling Awards for the waste management solutions that we provide. Dulsco is a leading environmental solutions provider for commercial, residential and industrial clients throughout the UAE and is a prominent provider of waste and recycling services that help build sustainable communities. We are committed to using our knowledge and expertise to successfully implement eco-friendly and custom-made environmental solutions that help keep the UAE clean,” said Sreeram. 
 
Dulsco’s recent initiatives include partnering with the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change for establishing construction and demolition waste processing facilities in Ajman, Umm Al Quwain and Fujairah. It has also collaborated with Chochoma Studios to upcycle waste glass into unique boutique products, invested Dh25 million in a recycling facility in Dubai to increase recycling and materials recovery rate, and invested a further Dh25 million ($6.8 million) to set up a state-of-the-art ‘slop and sludge’ plant in Jebel Ali - a unique facility in the region. – TradeArabia News Service
