Sustainability

What is sustainability?
Sustainability is based on a simple principle: What we do in the present will affect the generations to come. Here at Lower Precinct Shopping Centre we see compliance as an opportunity to innovate and we work hard to implement solid procedures to help us manage our waste and to reduce our carbon footprint.

What changes have we made?
Prior to mid-2011 all waste, other than card and plastic was compacted and sent for incineration. Since then we have significantly reduced the volume of incinerated waste by implementing procedures to separate dry recyclable waste and general waste on site. This has led to an almost trebling of the percentage of recycled waste in the following year.
