垃圾徵費將於年底前實施，為加強員⼯分類回收的意識，

海港城、時代廣場及荷⾥活廣場於5⽉⾄6⽉期間與⾹港⼤

學環境管理碩⼠課程學⽣合作，舉⾏「辦公室回收送暖⾏

動」，⿎勵員⼯使⽤辦公室的回收設施，減少廢物送往堆

填區，⽀持資源循環。

⾏動得到同事熱烈⽀持，共回收逾50公⽄的塑膠、鋁罐及

玻璃樽。公司亦藉是次⾏動幫助有需要⼈⼠，因應收集到

的總回收重量兌換愛⼼飯盒，透過社區夥伴⻝物回收及援

助機構「惜⻝堂」派發給基層⼈⼠，故員⼯回收愈多回收

物，亦意味着愈多受惠者得到⻝物援助，現已兌換成800個

飯盒，讓基層受惠。

As Charging for Municipal Solid Waste will be

implemented before the end of the year, Harbour City,

Times Square and Plaza Hollywood collaborated with

students from the Master of Science in Environmental

Management from the University of Hong Kong to

organise the \"Office Recycling for Meal Boxes

Campaign\" from May to June to raise colleagues’

awareness of source separated recycling and to

support resources circulation.

The campaign received an enthusiastic response from

colleagues and facilitated the recycling of more than

50 kg plastic, metal and glass. The campaign was also

as an endeavour to give back to society as the

company converted the total weight of collected

recyclables into a corresponding number of meal boxes

to be distributed to the underprivileged via the food

rescue and food assistance programme \"Food Angel\".

The more recyclables collected in the campaign did not

only mean less waste dumped to landfills, but also

more people benefiting from food assistance. The

recyclables collected in the campaign were translated

to 800 meal boxes and distributed to people in need.

Wharf Estates Limited Shopping Malls Implemented a Recycling

Campaign to Raise Meal Boxes for the Underprivileged

疫情⾄今，即棄餐盒使⽤有明顯上升趨勢，加劇環境污染問

題。隨着政府於今年3⽉提交《2023年產品環保責任（修

訂）條例草案》，最早將於今年年底或明年年初落實管制即

棄膠餐具及其他塑膠產品，相信有助減少塑膠棄置量。

除了政府措施，業界及環保組織亦積極推動「⾛塑」⽂化，

⾃上年12⽉起，時代廣場響應由世界⾃然基⾦會⾹港分會

（WWF）與外賣平台foodpanda推出的「外賣重⽤餐具計

劃」，於B3樓層設置餐盒回收機回收經foodpanda訂餐使⽤

到的環保餐盒。⽤戶在使⽤foodpanda的外賣速遞或⾃取服

務時，可於指定合作餐廳上選擇提供可重⽤餐盒的菜式，取

代即棄容器，於使⽤過後洗淨及歸還到餐盒回收機，減少消

耗即棄餐盒。

截⾄今年4⽉，時代廣場的餐盒回收站點已幫助回收逾500

個餐盒，⽀持顧客、員⼯及租戶選擇環保⾛塑。

Times Square Supporting the Reusable Food Packaging Programme by

WWF & foodpanda

The use of disposable lunch boxes has been on the

rise since the outbreak of the pandemic, which

exacerbates environmental pollution. In a bid to

reduce plastic usage, the government submitted

Product Eco-responsibility (Amendment) Bill 2023

in March this year to prohibit disposable plastic

tableware and other plastic products as early as the

end of this year or early next year.

In addition to government measures, the industry

and environmental organizations also actively

promote a plastic-free culture. Times Square has

since December last year supported the reusable

food packaging programme - ECF: Choose to Reuse

by WWF-Hong Kong and foodpanda Hong Kong.

The programme allows foodpanda users to order

dishes packaged in reusable containers from a list of

participating restaurants. The containers can then

be cleaned and returned to the collection points.

Times Square has supported the programme by

placing a collection machine on the B3 floor to

encourage the reduction of single-use containers.

As of April this year, the collection machine at

Times Square facilitated the recycling of more than

500 containers, supporting customers, staff and

tenants to go plastic-free.

海港城採⽤⾃動清潔機械⼈

Harbour City Deploying a Floor

Drying Robot to Uphold a Risk-free

Shopping Environment

⾬季將⾄，為避免⾬傘污⽔導致濕漉漉的購物環境，

海港城今年4⽉起採⽤⾃動吸⽔機械⼈，清潔及抹乾商

場地板，確保商場環境安全潔淨。

除了清潔機械⼈外，海港城⾃上年起採⽤消毒機械⼈

⾃動巡邏商場及消毒，以⾃動化的⽅式加強商場消毒

及清潔，提⾼清潔效率，同時節省⼈⼒資源。

時代廣場新設電動⾬傘除⽔器

New Automatic Umbrella Dryer at Times Square

In order to avoid a wet shopping environment caused by

dripping umbrellas during the wet season, Harbour City

has deployed an automated drying robot since April this

year to dry the shopping mall floor to ensure a clean and

safe shopping environment.

In addition to the floor drying robot, Harbour City has

adopted disinfection robots to automate patrolling and

disinfection of the mall to improve a satisfactory

hygiene level and to improve cleaning efficiency.

⾹港每年⾬季棄置⼤量⾬傘膠袋，不但為堆填區帶

來沉重負擔，塑膠垃圾亦有機會流⼊海洋，污染⽣

態。

為⿎勵顧客減少使⽤⾬傘膠袋，海港城、時代廣場

及荷⾥活廣場於商場主要出⼊⼝設置⾬傘除⽔器，

⽽時代廣場亦⾃今年3⽉中起新設電動⾬傘除⽔器，

市⺠只需把⾬傘放⼊機內六秒，除⽔器便會把⾬傘

吹乾，⽅便省時。除了設置⾬傘除⽔器供顧客使

⽤，時代廣場亦於場內多個地點擺放⾬傘套回收

桶，⿎勵顧客將使⽤過⾬傘膠袋進⾏回收，⽀持環

保。

In Hong Kong, a colossal number of plastic umbrella bags

are disposed during the rainy season, which adds to the

burden of the landfills, not to mention the threats of

pollution posed to the marine ecosystem.

In order to encourage customers to reduce the use of

umbrella plastic bags, Harbour City, Times Square and

Plaza Hollywood have put in place umbrella dryers at the

main entrances of the shopping malls. Times Square has

also introduced an automatic umbrella dryer since midMarch this year, which provides shoppers with convenient

ease to dry their umbrellas within six seconds. Times

Square has also set up recycling points to collect used

plastic umbrella bags to reduce plastic waste.

Go Plastic Free! 海岸清潔

WEL Volunteer Team Cleaned up Shorelines at Wu Shek Kok

疫情期間，⼀次性塑膠製品⽤量⼤增，對環境帶來持續

性的負⾯影響，其中流⼊海洋的塑膠垃圾對海洋⽣態系

統構成重⼤威脅，⽽微塑膠更有機會被海洋⽣物吞⻝⽽

進⼊⻝物鏈，威脅⼈類健康。

為保護海岸，避免塑膠及垃圾落⼊海洋，九⿓倉置業於4

⽉下旬與社區夥伴綠領⾏動合辦海岸清潔活動，安排20

個義⼯隊同事及親友到沙頭⻆烏⽯⻆清理垃圾，義⼯們

亦在綠領⾏動的講解下加深對海洋⽣態保護的知識。

The consumption of disposable plastic products has

increased significantly during the epidemic, which has

brought harm to the environment. Plastic waste, in

particular, risks flowing into the ocean, constituting a

major threat to the marine ecosystem. Not to mention

microplastics consumed by marine organisms may leak

into the food chain, threatening human health.

In order to protect the coast and prevent plastics from

leaking into the ocean, WEL joined hands with

Greeners Action to organise a cleanup day to clean up

the coast at Wu Shek Kok. 20 staff volunteers

brought along relatives and friends to clean up

garbage along the coast. They also learnt a lot about

protecting the marine ecology from Greeners Action.
