Sustainability is becoming more pervasive, as people and businesses alike are finding ways to reduce their environmental impact. But despite this growing environmental awareness, Park Royal Shopping Centre recently found that finding a company that builds sustainable kiosks is still a bit of a challenge. As part of our Sustainability in Action initiative, we wanted to create an information kiosk for Park Royal shoppers, tenants and staff to learn more about and be inspired by what we’re doing to create a greener, healthier shopping and work environment, and to lessen our impact on the environment.

West Vancouver, BC; April 16, 2009 – Based on the findings of a trash analysis conducted by Metro Vancouver, Park Royal Shopping Centre is announcing a plan to tackle its plastic waste. The program, which officially launches on Earth Day (April 22), includes the elimination of non-biodegradable plastic bags and the addition of a soft plastics recycling program throughout the Shopping Centre.
