The real estate management arm of Aldar Properties, Provis Estate Management has pledged to eliminate single-use plastics from its offices and common areas across Provis-managed communities. The initiative is in line with the UAE vision 2021 which aims to create and maintain a sustainable environment. As part of the initiative, Provis is expected to generate a 10% increase in recycling from households with the installation of plastic recycling vending machines. Residents across Provis-managed communities can insert plastic material into the machines in exchange for incentives. In addition, the company is conducting community awareness campaigns to reduce plastic consumption and pollution. During the coming two years, Provis-managed communities are expected to see a reduction in energy consumption by an additional 15%, which equals to approximately 30 million kWh of energy saved.
