Analyze the current recycling practices: Analyze the current recycling practices at the commercial place, including how the materials are collected, sorted, and disposed of. This could include looking at the types of bins being used, how often they are emptied, and how the materials are transported to the recycling facility
Identify opportunities for improvement: Identify areas where the commercial place could improve its recycling practices. This could include providing additional recycling bins, educating employees on proper recycling practices, or working with recycling professionals at Madenat to improve recycling efficiency.
Develop an action plan: Develop an action plan to implement the recommended improvements. This could include setting goals, identifying responsible parties, and establishing a timeline for implementation.

Green Ways To Celebrate Eid!

Ramadan is a month-long period of fasting, prayer, and reflection observed by millions of Muslims around the world. While celebrating Ramadan, it is important to be mindful of the environment and to adopt eco-friendly practices. Here are some ways to celebrate Ramadan while working towards environment sustainability.

Use eco-friendly decorations: Instead of using disposable decorations, use eco-friendly ones made from sustainable materials. You can use reusable decorations such as lanterns, banners, and tablecloths that can be used year after year. This not only reduces waste but also is easy on the pocket.
Prepare eco-friendly meals: Use organic and locally sourced ingredients for your Iftar meals. Try to reduce food waste by planning your meals in advance and only buying what you need. Also, try to avoid using disposable plates, cups, and cutlery by using reusable ones.
Conserve energy: During Ramadan, it is common to stay up late and wake up early for suhoor and prayers. To conserve energy, turn off lights and electronics when not in use, and use energy-efficient bulbs. You can also reduce your carbon footprint by carpooling or using public transportation to get to the mosque.
Donate to a green cause: Instead of giving traditional gifts, donate to a green cause. This could be a donation to an organization that works for environment sustainability, plant trees, or support renewable energy. This not only helps the environment but also helps those in need.
Use sustainable packaging: When giving gifts or sharing food with friends and family, use sustainable packaging such as reusable containers or wrapping paper made from recycled materials etc. This reduces waste and promotes sustainability.
Practice water conservation: During Ramadan, it is important to stay hydrated, but it is also important to conserve water. Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth, take shorter showers, and reuse water when possible.
Recycle: We tend to use extra lighting, decorations and more for iftar and family gatherings during Ramadan. Make sure you recycle those spent lamps, plastic, paper and whatever else you can with us. This way you will contribute towards a greater goal of zero landfill.

In conclusion, celebrating Ramadan in an eco-friendly way is not only good for the environment but also helps us to appreciate and respect the blessings that nature has given us. By making simple changes in our daily habits, we can make a big impact on the environment and create a more sustainable world for future generations. Ramadan Kareen to one and all!

Eid Ready Home – Cleaning tips

As the holy month of Ramadan approaches, the world begins preparing for this special time of the year. One important aspect of this preparation is cleaning the home and discarding/recycling the unnecessary. This not only helps create a clean and comfortable environment for the month-long period of fasting, but also allows individuals to focus their energy on prayer.

Here are some tips for cleaning your home and recycling the unwanted items before Ramadan:

Start early: Don’t wait until the last minute to start cleaning the house. Begin a few weeks before Ramadan to ensure that you have enough time to sort things.
Declutter: Go through your belongings and get rid of anything that you no longer need or use. This can be anything from old clothes to unused appliances. Consider donating items that are still in good condition to a local charity or second-hand store.
Clean room by room: Break up the cleaning process by tackling one room at a time. This will make the process less exhausting and help you stay focused. Keep the unwanted items aside for donation/recycling.
Focus on high-traffic areas: Pay special attention to areas of your home that are used frequently, such as the kitchen, bathrooms, and living areas. These areas are more likely to accumulate dirt and grime and require extra attention.
Recycle: As you clean, set aside any items that can be recycled. This can include cardboard boxes, plastic containers to even cables, old electronics etc. Contact Madenat recycling to find out what items can be recycled. This way you can ensure the minimum items can go in the landfill and make you a environment sustainability hero.
Dispose of hazardous waste safely: If you have any hazardous waste in your home, such as batteries, spent lamps or some kind of electronics, it will need special attention. Madenat recycling can guide you regarding storage of such hazardous waste and even visit your home to safely collect such items. We specialise in disposal of hazardous items.
Organize: Once all of the above is done, it’s time to organize. Find a place for everything and make sure that items are stored in a way that makes sense and are easy to maintain. Keep a recycling corner in the house and keep all recyclables there so that you can recycle them with Madenat periodically.

By following these tips, you can create a clean and comfortable environment for the month of Ramadan. Cleaning your home and discarding recyclables can also be a way to purify your mind and prepare yourself for the spiritual journey of Ramadan.
