Dengan adanya Pusat Kitar Semula & Beli-Balik (Recyling and Buy-Back Centre) Pusat Beli-belah IPC, kitar semula tidak lagi serumit dahulu malah telah menjadi lebih mudah. Dalam usahanya untuk menggalakkan kitar semula serta pengurangan sisa, Pusat Beli-belah IPC akan menggandakan ganjarannya di samping ganjaran bayaran balik yang sedia ada. Dari sekarang hingga 3 Jun 2018, pengunjung yang membawa sekurang-kurangnya 3 kg bahan buangan kitar semula akan membawa pulang pelbagai hadiah eksklusif dari Pusat Beli-belah IPC.

Bahan-bahan yang akan diterima untuk kitar semula merangkumi surat khabar, botol plastik dan tin alumunium. Bagi mengitar semula dan menebus ganjaran, pengunjung dikehendaki:

1. Membawa bahan buangan kitar semula ke Pusat Kitar Semula & Beli-Balik yang terletak di tempat letak kereta berhampiran Pillar 8D, Tingkat P1. (Buka setiap hari dari pukul 10 pagi hingga 6 petang – tutup untuk rehat dari pukul 1 petang hingga 2 petang)
2. Menimbang bahan buangan kitar semula dan menerima wang tunai serta resit. (Harga beli semula bergantung pada jenis bahan serta beratnya. Maklumat mengenai harga beli semula boleh didapati di Pusat Kitar Semula & Beli-Balik IPC)
3. Mengumpul resit anda bermula dari sekarang sehingga 3 Jun 2018 untuk memenuhi syarat berat minimum sebanyak 3 kg.
4. Menunjukkan semua resit di i-Kaunter Tingkat G dari 13 April hingga 3 Jun 2018 untuk menebus satu beg jinjing ATAU baucer beli-belah bernilai RM10.

Usaha ini sebenarnya dimulakan sebagai satu komponen sementara yang berunsurkan pendidikan. Namun pada hari ini, ia telah berkembang menjadi sebuah pusat pengurusan sisa yang tetap untuk komuniti. IPC merupakan pusat beli-belah pertama di Lembah Klang yang memperkenalkan sistem beli semula melalui pelancaran Pusat Kitar Semula & Beli-Balik-nya pada tahun 2009. Inisiatif ini juga meletakkan IPC sebagai antara pusat beli-belah yang paling mendukung konsep hijau dalam komuniti. Selain pelbagai bahan buangan kitar semula, pusat ini juga menerima lampu merkuri dan bateri yang telah habis digunakan. Mentol merkuri dan bateri yang diterima akan diuruskan secara berhati-hati demi menjamin penghantaran yang selamat ke syarikat pengurusan sisa, Kuality Alam untuk dilupuskan.

Eleanor Lo,  Pengurus Pemasaran Pusat Beli Belah IPC mengulas, “Segala usaha ini merupakan komitmen kami ke arah bumi yang lebih hijau. IPC sentiasa memberikan fokus kepada kehidupan mampan serta mengurangkan impak negatif ke atas alam sekeliling. Maka, kami telah menggabungkan pelbagai pendekatan contohnya penggunaan lampu yang menjimat tenaga dalam IPC untuk mengurangkan emisi, serta pembangunan sebuah Pusat Kitar Semula & Beli-Balik untuk membolehkan komuniti melaksanakan tanggungjawab mereka.”

Selain itu, Pusat Beli-Belah IPC juga mengambil pelbagai langkah lain untuk melaksanakan konsep hijau dalam bangunannya, misalnya pemasangan panel solar dan sistem penuaian air hujan pada bumbung, sistem mencuci pinggan dan pembersihan yang mampan, pengurusan and pengurangan sisa, serta penyediaan tong kitar semula yang mengikut jenis sisa dalam seluruh bangunan pusat membeli-belah.

Pusat Beli-Belah IPC kini sedang memohon beberapa pensijilan bangunan hijau, termasuk Indeks Bangunan Hijau Malaysia (GBI) serta Kepimpinan Rekabentuk Tenaga dan Alam Sekitar (LEED Gold).

This festive season, IPC Shopping Centre is taking their entire Christmas festive decorations down a notch to channel their focus into doing so much more for 100 families in need through a crowdfunding campaign.  IPC is calling members of the public to join them in achieving a target of RM100,000 worth of groceries, school supplies and toys collectively to brighten the lives of these Malaysians.

To further stamp their year-end commitment, IPC Shopping Centre has taken the first step by contributing a total of RM50,000 to achieve half of the campaign’s target.

The shopping centre has adopted ‘Christmas in a Box’ as their festive theme this year, which translates to giving a slice of the festivities to those in need, all within one box. To realise this effort, IPC Shopping Centre has put together four types of ‘gift boxes’ which will be given to 100 underprivileged local families.  To identify these families, IPC has worked hand-in-hand with HOPE Worldwide Malaysia, a globally accredited non-religious NGO that has been helping disadvantaged local communities for the past 21 years. The four gift boxes include:

1. Happiness Box – IKEA Toys and Arts & Craft Supplies (RM25)
2. Home Box – Groceries (RM48)
3. Back-to-School Box – School Supplies (RM120)
4. Care Box – Groceries + School Supplies (RM168)

“IPC Shopping Centre is all about bringing happiness, both to our own co-workers, staff and also externally to our surrounding communities. Every day, we see people of different backgrounds and purpose walk in our centre and all we want to do is ensure that they feel a sense of fulfilment or contentment each time they pay us a visit. The goal of this campaign is to further extend IPC’s commitment of bringing that feeling to people and families beyond our walls”, said Karyn Lim, Centre Manager IPC Shopping Centre

Lim added “The year-end is always a special time for us, and this year we want to make it even more special by calling on all our friends, partners and communities to join us in making this season of giving an unforgettable one for the 100 Malaysian families in need”.

IKEA Damansara, was the first commercial partner to collaborate with the campaign by developing the ‘Happiness Box’. Synonymous with festivities, the ‘Happiness Box’ was designed centred around kids and what they would normally receive during the morning of Christmas. This gift box is completed with most of the things kids love, like IKEA soft toys as well as arts & crafts supplies.

IPC Shopping Centre also identified several other partners for this campaign. Partners include Absolute Thai with a cash donation of RM5,000 towards the campaign, Spotlight who are contributing household items and Popular who are contributing stationeries. HOPE Worldwide Malaysia has also been identified as the NGO partner who will be leading the logistic arrangements and Bonsey Jaden, to communicate the message out to the public.

“HOPE worldwide Malaysia is honoured and grateful to be selected by IPC Shopping Centre as the beneficial NGO for their ‘Christmas in a Box’ Campaign. Through the tagline of the Campaign ‘Dimming down the Lights to Brighten Lives’, IPC Shopping Centre inspires us to be more selfless and empathetic by putting ourselves in the shoes of the less fortunate, it brings a deeper meaning to this festive celebration,” shared Darick Wong, Country Director of HOPE Worldwide Malaysia.

IPC Shopping Centre’s “Christmas in a Box” campaign will be running from 30th November until the 27th of December 2017. To contribute, simply head down to HOPE Worldwide Malaysia’s booth in the concourse, located on Level G, of IPC Shopping Centre. For further information visit www.ipc.com.my
