Concern with environmental initiatives is part of Multiplan's DNA and, for this reason, the Company has implemented another sustainability practice in its shopping centers: the responsible collection of electro-electronic waste. Check out the collection points and the types of materials that can be disposed of in our malls.
In Rio de Janeiro (RJ), customers who want to dispose of used batteries a sustainable manner can visit BarraShopping and drop them off at the following collection points: the Barra Service restroom corridor, Eco Américas, Rio Antigo, Barra Port, and Descarga 12. Customers who pass by VillageMall, on the other hand, can place them near the mall's SAC, on the floor of the VIP parking lot. At ParkJacarepaguá, the collection of these types of electronic waste is handled near the mall's Administration Office and in the hall of the restrooms on floors L1, L2, and L3.
In São Paulo (SP), MorumbiShopping has five points for the collection of batteries. All of the collectors are located at the access to the social elevator. On the Leisure floor, next to Samsung, on the Ground floor next to CNS and on the Upper floor next to Pampili, besides the points on floors G2 and G3. ParkShoppingSãoCaetano, in São Caetano do Sul (SP), has a collection box from Green Eletron, the main reverse logistics manager of electronic waste in the country, located at the access to the VIP parking lot, underground. Batteries and electronics such as cell phones, laptops, tablets, cameras, chargers, hair dryers, etc. can be deposited there.

At Pátio Savassi, the disposal of these materials is on the G4 floor. In Brasília (DF), ParkShopping has 10 bins available for the collection of electronic waste installed at all entrances of the shopping center.
"Multiplan really values the engagement of society in the environmental activities it proposes and the result of this is a good connection with our public, who contribute a lot. We make these collection points available so that as many people as possible have the opportunity to dispose of their electronic waste responsibly and with the guarantee that the discarded materials will have a safe and sustainable destination," said Vander Giordano, Multiplan's Institutional Vice President.
In addition to e-waste collection, Multiplan is part of the Solid Waste Management Program, which ensures that all the shopping centers and the Company's headquarters are committed to proper waste disposal in general.
