Annine Fadye is a Beirut social enterprise founded in 2024 by Anthony Abdel Karim. It collects discarded glass bottles and gives them a second use, either reworking them into glassware or crushing them into glass pebbles. The home range covers vases, candle holders and ashtrays, and the team also makes custom pieces for restaurants, bars and cafes, such as centerpieces, water carafes, oil containers and spray bottles. The workshop runs on solar power and keeps track of its water and electricity use, part of a wider aim of cutting glass waste in Lebanon. Its story was profiled by The Switchers, a platform for green entrepreneurs, which lists its Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn pages for enquiries.
