ISLAMABAD: Saudi company Wafi Energy Pakistan Limited on Thursday inaugurated the country’s second retail station built with recycled plastic in Rawalpindi, highlighting its push for green solutions in Pakistan’s energy and retail sectors.
Wafi Energy, an affiliate of the Asyad Group, became the majority shareholder of Shell Pakistan Limited (SPL) in November last year and now holds approximately 87.78 percent of the total issued share capital of SPL.
The new station located in Police Lines Rawalpindi was built using 7,700kgs of plastic waste, equal to more than 5.8 million pieces of end-of-life plastics infused into construction materials, according to Wafi Energy.
“At Wafi Energy, sustainability is not just a commitment — it is a responsibility,” Wafi Energy quoted CEO Zubair Shaikh as saying.
“With the launch of Pakistan’s second retail site made with recycled plastic, we are demonstrating how innovation and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand,” it continued.
