waste reduction
FOOD 2
FOOD 2
In I Gigli no food is wasted! The Shopping Centre, in collaboration with Food Bank, tackles food waste with a programme to recover surplus food from bars, restaurants and the hypermarket. A virtuous circle through which food is immediately redistributed to partner facilities providing food to the least fortunate while ensuring high standards of hygiene and safety.
Smart bins
NANDO arrives at I Gigli: the intelligent companion for a cleaner world!
We have installed smart bins in the Gallery that can analyze waste to help you separate waste collection.
Each bin is equipped with sensors that help you separate waste efficiently and responsibly.

This certification requires sustainable practices during the design, construction, management, and maintenance of buildings. The BREEAM code includes principles and requirements that promote an integrated approach to sustainability, improving the environmental, social, and economic impact of buildings.
