Metito,
the international water treatment, desalination
and wastewater treatment expert, joins the Emirates
Environmental Group in the implementation of Corporate
Social Responsibility Programs for the environment.
Metito is one of the founding members of EEG's CSR
network, composed of environmentally aware companies,
promoting and pursuing a vast array of eco-awareness
initiatives in the UAE.
With its active involvement in
the CSR program, Metito will further emphasize
on its commitment to safeguard the environment,
as part of its management, continuous improvement
and reporting of direct and indirect impacts aimed
at improving the world in which we live.
With this synergy, EEG believes
in the value of building and maintaining long-standing
partnerships with leading organisations committed
to developing and shaping the CSR agenda. Metito's
efforts to help sustain the environment within
the communities around us will get a fillip with
its involvement in the EEG program.
Mrs Habiba Al Marashi, Chairperson
of EEG, said: 'We thank Metito for being a founding-member
of our CSR network. Being a wastewater treatment
expert, Metito has played a vital role in environment
protection. Within their role in various projects,
especially in wastewater and oilfields sector,
they also have the responsibility to develop with
care and to follow eco-friendly practices. We
are therefore pleased that Metito is part of our
CSR program and we look forward to undertake projects
with them as partners.'
It may be noted that a growing
number of businesses are fast realizing that contributing
to society and the environment actually strengthens
their operations. As part of their Corporate Social
Responsibility program, most international companies
implement socially responsible initiatives, like
community relations and environmental friendliness
beyond regulatory requirements.
Fady Juez, Managing Director of
Metito, said: 'EEG is a respected organisation
and has done great work to raise awareness on
environmental protection and preservation in the
country. It is devoted to protecting the environment
through action-oriented programmes and community
involvement and we believe it is our responsibility
to be a part of this initiative.'
He added: 'We have always laid
stress on the environment protection and the EEG's
CSR network is an ideal opportunity to build partnership
between the organisation and the private sector.
Over the years, Metito has developed a solid track
record of successful relationships through initiatives
targeted at mitigating environmental impacts and
ensuring sustainability by following mechanisms
to address community concerns as they arise.'
