Bee’ah has collected several tonnes of waste and recyclables in six months from the multinational courier delivery service provider.

Packaging companies like Fed Ex are well-known in the industry for the relatively large amount of waste they produce in a short time frame. All indicators reveal that Bee’ah has helped FedEx improve and maintain waste collection and recyclable efficiency within their facilities. The collection of Fed Ex’s waste and recyclables increased by 44% in the past six months. The scope of Bee’ah’s contract included state-of-the-art waste collection, transportation and recovery.
Fahad Shehail, Chief Development Officer, Bee’ah, said: “Providing the highest level of waste collection and recycling services is central to our expansion strategy. The expertise of our operations around the UAE has made Bee’ah the ideal partner for international companies seeking a profitable and sustainable future. We have improved the environmental standards of FedEx’s operations through the implementation of recycling and integrated waste management systems and integrated services. These green practices set a great example for the entire packaging industry within the UAE.”
Bee’ah has provided general waste collection services for three FedEx facilities located in the UAE, including: FedEx Metroplex, next to Dubai Airport Terminal 2; FedEx Al-Quoz Industrial Area 1; and FedEx Garhoud, Al -Garhoud.
