The Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry is one of the biggest contributors to waste pollution, with millions of tons of expired food, packaging, plastics, and personal care products discarded every year. To tackle this, the UAE is pushing for sustainable waste management, aligning with its Circular Economy Policy 2031 and Zero Waste strategies.
At Greenland Recycling, we provide specialized FMCG waste recycling solutions, helping businesses minimize waste and support a greener UAE.
The FMCG Waste Challenge in the UAE
FMCG waste comes in many forms, from plastic packaging and beverage containers to expired food and beauty products. Without proper disposal, these waste materials end up in landfills, pollute oceans, and increase carbon emissions.
- The UAE has set a goal to divert 75% of waste from landfills by 2030.
- New regulations are pushing businesses to recycle, reuse, and reduce waste production.
- Companies are expected to adopt eco-friendly packaging and responsible disposal methods.
Sustainable FMCG waste management is no longer optional—it’s a necessity.
