SUSTAINABILITY AT NEPI ROCKCASTLE

SERVICES FOR COMMUNITY

The recycling potential for customers in a shopping center is an important step for enhancing the recycling, therefore we strive to provide relevant infrastructure. The presence of recycling bins throughout the mall and facilities within the shopping center greatly influences customers' recycling potential. By having clearly labeled bins for different types of materials like paper, plastic, glass, and metal we encourage people to recycle effectively.

BIODIVERSITY AND GREENERY

We care about biodiversity. Working together with ecologist, we create and manage the green space around us so that it becomes friendly to the organisms living in that area.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Provide safe, healthy and secure environments for those who work, visit, shop and relax in our shopping center is at highest priority. Thriving communities is part of our commitment to contribute and give back to the local economy. Education is an important part of our everyday marketing campaigns. We think on ourselves as educators, who share knowledge and ideas with our customers, encouraging them to make more deliberate and responsible choices. We not only provide our spaces for valuable events and initiatives, but we have also been running our own programmes and campaigns for many years.

For many years, Warmińska Centrum has been a meeting venue and a location of cultural events, social and sports initiatives and a place for taking care of everyday matters. We organise many campaigns and projects to support and integrate the residents and local organisations, respond to everyday needs and create a space filled with positive emotions and experiences.

SUSTAINABLE SHOPPING

We inspire our customers to behave responsibly. We present the idea of circularity (Circular Economy) by organizing educational campaigns and providing and sharing valuable content. In this way, we share our solutions, but also we demonstrate that we operate in a responsible environment and with responsible partners. In our publication "Circular Guide", we provide specific examples and share good practices of our tenants whose solutions are available in our shopping centers. thus equipped for proper consumption.
