Dubai’s first in-building composting and sorting facilities in a residential development were unveiled on May 7, 2025, at Trafalgar Central in Dubai International City by Fakhruddin Properties.
The 90:90 Waste Management Initiative aims to redefine urban sustainability with a zero-cost, scalable model for residential towers. The Fakhruddin Properties model aims to divert up to 90 percent of building waste from landfills, hence the name. The on-site segregation allows for efficient and clean collection, ensuring that only 10 percent of waste reaches landfills.
