Ecolab, a global leader in water, hygiene and infection prevention solutions, has formalised its long-standing collaboration with Dubai Municipality through the signing of a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

Under the agreement, Ecolab and Dubai Municipality will work together to enhance the safety of water and food systems across Dubai through technical programmes, specialised training, and expert consultation. The collaboration also extends to strengthening the safety oversight of consumer products, including biocides.

The MoU establishes a broader framework for cooperation on initiatives that promote sustainability, support the development of regulatory systems, and encourage the adoption of innovative approaches such as artificial intelligence and emerging technologies. The partnership reinforces shared priorities around public health protection and environmental stewardship.

“Dubai Municipality continues to advance pioneering, science-based systems for food safety, water quality, and consumer product oversight in line with our strategic vision to safeguard public health and support Dubai’s long-term sustainable development,” said Dr Naseem Mohamed Rafee, acting CEO of the Environment, Health and Safety Agency at Dubai Municipality. “Our collaboration with Ecolab enables the Municipality to benefit from specialised technical expertise and international best practice, strengthening the services and standards that enhance the wellbeing of residents, visitors, and the wider community.”
