UDC inaugurates 'Seabin' project to maintain clean waters

Doha: United Development Company (UDC) inaugurated a new environmental Seabin project, the first of its kind in the State of Qatar, to prevent sea pollution and protect marine species at The Pearl-Qatar.

The event, which took place on the occasion of World Environment Day, was held in Porto Arabia Marina where the seabins have been installed in ten different locations, in the presence of senior officials from UDC and the Ministry of Municipality and Environment. Driven by UDC's commitment to sustainability practices, the seabin project is a multi-award-winning invention that acts as a floating trash bin and sucks waste including plastic, oils and contaminants from the water of docks and marinas, removing hazards to marine life and maintaining a healthy ecosystem.
