Welcome to Waqaya
I am delighted to welcome you to the website of Waqaya Environmental Services.
Since we started in Riyadh in 2015, our goal has been clear: medical waste in the Kingdom should be managed with the highest standards of safety and responsibility, protecting people and the environment alike.
Today, as we open our Qassim facility with a treatment capacity of nearly ten tonnes a day, we renew our commitment to working to regulatory standards, in partnership with the hospitals, clinics, pharmaceutical companies and government entities that have placed their trust in us.
