Dubai-Can

Following the announcement of the Dubai Can initiative from H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Nakheel, world-leading master developer, marked its participation in the city-wide initiative, by allocating free drinking water stations across Palm West Beach, Nakheel Mall and Dragon Mart, to reduce the use of single-use plastic bottles.

With the aim to transform the Emirate into a leading sustainable destination, the free Dubai Can fountain across the three Nakheel destinations contain filtered and desalinated water, to further encourage visitors and residents to carry refillable water bottles throughout their day.

Omar Khoory, Chief Assets Officer at Nakheel said: “We are proud to take part in this forward-thinking initiative to safeguard the environment and promote sustainability. As part of our commitment to this city-wide movement, we have populated some of our key destinations with water stations to encourage the use of refillable water bottles. At Nakheel, we recognize the importance of implementing small acts that pave the way for bigger outcomes, and we will continue to dedicate our efforts to instil a culture of conscious and sustainable living across our assets.”
