The compactor has an automated system for the collection and compaction of bottles in PET plastic, a high quality plastic material for which a specific recycling system is useful in order to avoid mixing it with lower quality plastic materials.<\/p>\n<p>IGD was an active part of this innovative project born and developed locally, in collaboration with the municipality of Forl\u00ec, Alea Ambiente (the municipal waste management company) and the company Green Focus, which installed the first eco-compactor for both IGD\u2019s network of properties and the city of Forl\u00ec.<\/p>\n<p>IGD, which has been involved in other circular economy and responsible consumption initiatives for years, decided to take part in the project well aware how important and necessary managing plastic waste is. For this reason IGD made a part of the shopping center\u2019s main entrance, which attracts significant traffic flow, available for the installation of the collection system. The eco-compactor provides the shopping center with the possibility to provide incentives and benefits like discounts, coupons and other reward systems, that can be used in participating mall stores.<\/p>\n<p>The service was obtained good results immediately, as shown by the great number of recycled bottles registered in the first week of operation (around 3 thousand) and the strong interest of the local media.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BREEAM IN USE CERTIFICATION FOR ESP AND PUNTADIFERRO Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
