(MENAFN- PR Newswire)
HOUSTON, Oct. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- McDermott has been awarded Platinum status in the Used Garnet Return Rewards Program by
GMA Middle East, marking a decade-long successful partnership between the two companies. As the first recipient of this award in the region, McDermott is being recognized for its commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility through the return of garnet used in its fabrication paint blasting operations.
This initiative, which aligns with McDermott's efforts to divert solid waste from landfills, has allowed
GMA to process approximately 32,000 tons of used garnet from McDermott alone.
"This recognition underscores McDermott's commitment to achieving our sustainability targets and creating long-term value for our stakeholders while integrating circularity into our operations," said
Sadaf Hameed, McDermott's Manager, Sustainability. "Recycling garnet is a powerful example of how we can extend the life of materials, reduce waste, and lessen our environmental impact. We view initiatives like this as essential in transitioning to more sustainable engineering, procurement, construction, and installation practices."
"McDermott's leadership in garnet recycling sets a benchmark for environmental stewardship in the industry," said Grant Cox,
GMA CEO. "Their return of used garnet over the past decade has contributed significantly to reducing landfill waste, and we are proud to recognize their role in advancing sustainability in the region. We look forward to continuing our partnership and exploring new ways to innovate together."
