Sharjah will soon be home to the Gulf’s first road made from recycled rubber.

Bee’ah, a public/private waste management partnership, has just commissioned its US $50m plant for turning the discarded rubber in to a new material which can be used for making a number of products, the most significant of which is used in a new kind of asphalt for resurfacing roads.

Company Managing Director Samer Kamal explains how recycled rubber tyres can be applied for greater good in an exclusive interview with Mona Ibellini.
